Hello everyone!
This is my first post here!
I have a canon 80d and I have a 55-250 stm and a canon 70-300 is usm.
I am looking into getting a lens so that I can take portraits and also be able to capture action, meaning fast focusing and accurate focus. I have been looking into the canon 70-200 f2.8 because I rented it and it was so much better than my current lenses! But what are your thoughts on the sigma 50-100 f1.8 vs a 70-200 f2.8 for a crop camera? I know the 70-200 is a workhorse but using it on a crop camera it's like an f4 lens so the bokeh won't be like it is on full frame. I know that I am losing the 100-200mm range with the sigma but with a 1.8 aperture in a zoom lens is tempting. It's equivalent to using an f2.8 lens on full frame and I've read that it's incredibly sharp.
How would you compare these two lenses? Which do you think would be best for a crop camera? I do plan on eventually going full frame one day and the sigma is only efs mount, but I probably won't be buying full frame for a few years.
Thanks!
