  1. I appreciate the recommendation on the Sigma AF 120-300mm f/2.8 but the reason I'm looking at the other two lenses is that they are in the $1000 range. I'm only finding the Sigma for closer to $2600.

    Thanks,

    Dave

  2. Looking for a portable photo printer that does borderless 8x10's in the under

    $500 range. the Canon Pixma iP90v is the only one i've found so far. Anyone

    know of any more? Thanks,

    Dave

  3. Any suggestions on which of these two lenses would be better for me to buy,

    would be much appreciated.

    Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM or

    Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM

     

    I will be shooting amatuer sports (little league baseball, basketball, soccer,

    etc.) Basically is the IS worth while? I would expect i'll be using a monopod

    most of the time. Any feedback would be helpful.

     

    Thanks,

  4. Chris, very good advice. I definitely want to enjoy this. I plan to do something similar to aspn.com were I snap some action shots and do some PR work with the crowd, leaving them information of were to view the photos and purchase if they like. I would like to get some practice, so I am looking for some feedback on some beginners equiptment (under $1000.00) to get started. Also if you know anywhere that can answer questions like the one I posted about lenses, I would much appreciate any direction.

     

    Thanks,

    Dave

  5. Thanks for the advice! I checked out sportshooter.com but it's about guns not photography. Any other websites that would be helpful are much appreciated.

    Thanks,

  6. Hi, I am hopefully starting a business photographing sports from little league

    baseball to high school soccer. I am totally new to photography but a fast

    learner. I am looking at a Canon Rebel ETI with an EF Zoom 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6

    lens. Will this be sufficient equiptment in terms of quality to begin with?

     

    Also, I'm not sure but I would guess at 28mm, this would be used for closer

    shots and 300mm for more distant shots. If this is true what kind of actual

    distance are we talking about, in terms of yards?

     

    Thanks for any advice

    Dave
