My daughter is a Soccer GK. I take pictures at all her soccer games. I started doing it to keep me from yelling during games but has turned into a nice little hobby. I take pictures of every girl during the game. I then post the good pics on a site for the parents and kids to see.
My daughter is currently playing 8v8 but is graduating very soon to 11v11 full field. I position myself at the opposite end of the field from my daughter so I can get good pics of her. The lens I am using currently is a 70 to 300 zoom which is ok not great for a 70 yrd distance. Some photos of her are good but not great. Since she is moving to a 100 yrd field I want to get a longer zoom. I was thinking of just getting a 100 to 400 zoom but not sure if that is enough. I know there is a 200 to 500 and a 150 to 600 zoom. See I still want to get the pictures of the girls in front of me scoring the goals. This is why I need a zoom, so I zoom in and out depending on where the ball is.
Does anyone have any suggestions on the type or size of lens I should look at?
I currently us a Canon T2i camera.
Thanks for any suggestions.
