Not sure what the "races" are but 200mm is pretty short for most sports related stuff unless you can get up close.
200mm isnt that bad. I havent been with many photographers that have used anything over that for the most part. Ive been to events such as Formula D, SCCA, and a few private track days. Only time I could see a use for something over 200mm is a very large circuit such as Road Atlanta.
yeah, I have the 70-200 for my Cannon and it will get you closer shots than the lens that came with but is no super zoom by any means.
A bunch of people are renting the drag strip on the coast this coming up weekend and I really wanted to make sure I got some nice good clean shots. and wasn't sure about the lens needed.
Right now I got Nikkor 28-80mm F/3.3-5.6, Nikkor 70-300mm f4-5.6 G, Nikkor 50 mm f/1.8D AF Lens Will my 70-300 do just as good? Its going to be mostly day time running and alittle during the night but the lights are nice and bright and I got all access to the track.
