I usually don't name any specific name unless someone asks for the
specific one. But I usually suggest to go for the Top_Of_The_Line of
either
Sigma, Tamra, Canon
And you may want to spend few MONTHS (yes months) to read as much
possitive and negative feedbacks from end users as possible, then go from
there. And I would check with these
www.fredmiranda.com and look at their REVIEWS there you will see only
feedbacks of End Users.
www.dpreview.com and check with the LENS forum for extra opinion. Here
you
may see lot of waco opinion, but you may benefit from other who may
response
to it.
Or there you may see some samples and you can use those to *compare* with
yours to see the difference. And me? I don't settle for anything less
than
F2.8, and the only F4 I have is the Bigma 50-500mm, everything else are
f2.8
to F1.4
It seems like you really aim for the reach, but keep in mind that you
will
need good lens to capture sharp image at long distance. And you will need
fast lens f2.8 or faster to capture the fast movement (faster focus).
Those
are the very basic rules, similar to life that LUCK may or may not happen
ONCE in our life time, but with talent we may have more chance. Or same
with lens if you have good lens then you should have more chance to
capture
clean and sharp image, then with skill you should have more chance for
more
great captures.
So, unless you have $$$ to spend, don't rush for good lens right away but
save the money for good one. Or don't waste money on cheapie lens that
you
won't be happy, but use that money on good lens.
