[QUOTE="traceyjj, post: 581297, member: 27458"] I am in the market for a telephoto lens, but I haven't a clue which one to buy! I recently went on holiday and it became apparent that 70mm isn't long enough for some of the shots I would take while travelling... We went to an airshow, but pretty much most of my images were unusable, despite being in prime position (the official RAF photographer was less than 6ft away from me) I would like the Nikon 70-200 f2.8, but the recent large price jump in the UK has made me think twice... (and put it on hold) I have a 28-300, but the image quality is nowhere near as good as the 24-70 Nikon, and as the UK weather is "iffy" quite often, I often found that the autoISO pushed the ISO quite high to get a reasonable shutter speed. (maybe that was inexperience... I dont know) What options are there for 70mm+ telephoto lenses for a full frame camera? what should I look for, and what should I avoid? Many thanks in advance Tracey [/QUOTE]
