So, I know this has probably come up several times in the past and there have been many articles and opinions on the subject, but I wanted to get some real-world photographer experience opinions.
I'm looking at purchasing the Canon F/2.8 70-200mm lens. I know of course it comes in the IS and non-IS versions. I like the price of the Non-IS version a lot better, so I'm leaning towards that one.
I know it comes down to application and the kind of enviornment one is shooting in, etc. I would say that I would be using the lens mostly outdoors, at say the zoo or a kid's ball game, or inside in well it conditions.
Does the step-up in price, (currently about $700) on Amazon), justify the need for the IS version?
I don't want to be that guy who could have saved a little more to get a lens that would be hands down better if it makes that big of incremental difference.
Can anyone share their thoughts on this please.
