I'm going to be in Ottawa in a couple of weeks for the womens world championships and want to take some good pics.
At the same event last year I shot with a Canon T3i and the 75-300 IS USM. I found it slow to focus and several pics were either out of focus or the camera wouldn't focus and take the picture at all.
Despite the fact that they're both out of my budget, I've about decided to break down and get either the 70-300 L or the 100-400 L. I just can't decide which one. I've gone back and forth for the last week. First guestion, is the 70-300 L really that much better than the 75-300 I have? I use it as my standard lense. Second, will the 100-400 provide sigificantly more close up shots of players than the 70-300? I will be limited to shooting from my seat except maybe during warm up.
Don't have the opportunity to shoot sports regularly, maybe once a year or two, but like to shoot close ups of my favorite players as well as wider game action.
Other than that, I primarily take landscape, wildlife, and general travel photos.
Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.
