Ok, I have narrowed it down to these five options:
1. Canon EF 300mm 2.8 IS Mk I
2. Canon EF 400mm 2.8 IS MK I
3. Canon EF 400mm 2.8 Mk II
4. Sigma 120-300 2.8 EX DG OS APO HSM (QRSTUV, WXY and Z lol )
5. Canon EF 300mm 2.8
I have two camera bodies (5D Mark III and 60D). What I currently shoot is mostly basketball and a little bit of indoor soccer so my current setup is my FF with the 24-70 and the crop with my 70-200. But with football season coming (and me possibly taking photos for a couple local high schools/small colleges. Here's hoping), I feel like I should get a longer lens and I was wondering what your thoughts would be comparing these five options. I know IS is all but irrelevant when it comes to sports, so I was leaning towards option 3 or 5, but I've heard very good things about the new version of the Sigma, and I like the idea of having the flexibility of zoom. I'll try to handle as many of these as possible, but there's a chance I won't get my hands on all of them before I make my choice, so I was looking for some input.
Thanks for any advice, guys and gals!
