ChrisO Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 I know there are some other photography gear heads on here, check out what I got at a ghetto pawn store in Appleton I’m not sure if what I did was morally right, pretty sure they forgot a 1 infront of 349. I didn’t question it, just said I’d take it. HipMF, suspenceful and Ryan... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works great, pawn shops submit all serial numbers and photos to the police and hold items for a month before selling them (I think). I feel comfortable having bought it in a retail store, but if it was stolen I’d feel very bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelBlue Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 I got a 55-200 MM zoom lens for Christmas. Does anyone on here have a zoom lens that they use? I have my kit lens and a 50 MM. I think this zoom would be good for at the track use. I guess if there is anything else in this price range that would be a better options I can return this one.

I've been wanting to add that lens to my bag. I'm surprised by how often I don't have the range I need. It's great for track usage like you mentioned.

straight6pwr Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 i use my 55-300 at the track and auto-x events with good results. its not a fast lens either, just the standard f3.5-5.6 this was taken at Road America, Turn 7, probably about 400 ft away. 55-300 also has its place in landscape, portraits, etc Bassboy3313, Jdesign, m42b32 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wanna ball hard you could get a IS 70-200 f2.8L. I had one for a while and it takes incredibly sharp photos at f/2.8 (more depth of field wide open and low light performance) and the image stabilization is a huge help when zoomed to 200mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
