What's Hot: best highschool basketball lense if you can get close
What's Not:
|
Review: This is the lense you need if you want to photograph high school/ junior high basketball in a low light arena. It is fast to focus and accurate on the subject. The f-value is low enough that you can use high shutter speeds and the image quality is absolutely the best of all the lenses i have tried. It is light weight and well made. IF you can get on the floor or close to the floor it is the best you'll find. If you cannot get close enough to the action you might try the sigma apo 50-150/2.8. I went through many lenses before i found these two and hope that this review will help you if you are in the same situation of wanting to get good pictures if gym sports.
