Canon Sports Lens Suggestions for Beginner Please

[JimmyO]

Only problem with the primes is you have to be right on top of the action. They are good lenses, but very limited on reach with sporting events.

Yeah i wish my 400mm f/2.8 Wasnt so limited in reach

Yeah I know what you mean.

I understand you were prolly refering to 50mm's


But both nikon and canon make primes in medium tele lengths that are cheaper and faster then their zoom counterparts
