question.... i own a sigma 70-200mm f2.8 II APO EX DG MACRO and was thinking of renting an Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS would i be better off selling the sigma and buying the canon? i shoot my kids sports and landscape and am looking for a better lens to shoot the moon.

why don't you try renting it before you sell anything? then you'll know what you want to do.

What times are the kids games at? If you use the 2.8, then the 100-400 isn't going to cut it. But if they are all daytime games then the 100-400 will likely do just fine.
