[QUOTE="Elliot87, post: 744432, member: 25183"] [MENTION=48483]BF Hammer[/MENTION] That is a good way to look at, although my many nieces and nephews may prove to be just as skittish and unpredictable as some wildlife! If my memory serves me right it does have very high ceilings so I may well need to follow your advice on this one. I currently have the 70-300mm up for sale but haven't had any takers yet, so may keep it for the day. The VC is good but it will struggle with the light I think. As you say a tripod may well be essential here. My other often is to buy a Sigma50-150mm f2.8, the earlier non OS model. I would love to have the latest one but they seem hard to find and are out of my budget here. The non OS one should work well with monopod and tripod and will certainly allow lower ISO than my 70-300mm. I will buy used and potentially sell on afterwards so it shouldn't prove too expensive. I would prefer to buy a Sigma 105mm or 150mm macro OS as these are actually lenses I'd like to have long term but would not be ideal for this event I don't think. [/QUOTE]
