I have a D7000. The majority of the pictures I shoot are outdoor sports and indoor gymnastics. There is of course the general photography, but it is mostly the sports/gymnastics that I do 3/4 the time.
I want to upgrade from the 55-200 VR 3.5-5.6 kit lens that I have with my D7000 to a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. My budget is around $700. I will be looking for used lenses on Craigslist/ebay/etc for the best deal possible.
With that in mind, what would you be shopping for?
Obviously $700 isnt going to buy a Nikon brand 70-200, but I have seen numerous Sigma/Tamron brands on Craigslist for between $500-$1000. It seems like there are so many different models varying in price, especially with the Sigma's, it is hard to figure out the differences in some of them.
Thanks for your help.
