Pros use 400/2.8 and 300/2.8 lenses. You could rent these or at least buy a 1.4TC for your 70-200.

markol Senior Member 841 posts Joined Jun 2007 Location: San Francisco More info | Sep 21, 2007 13:21 | #14 Went to a game a while ago. I am not much into the sport aspect of it. I was more interested in the gear people were using and how they were positioned. Everyone has the long glass. From 300 f2.8, 400mm f2.8 a500mm f4 IS and 600mm f4 IS. Saw one guy with all 3 400-600 lined up on tripods. He was hopping between them depending on where the action was. That's a hell of an investment. Some of them I am sure rent, but that gets pricey after a while too.

). Try and make sure you know where your players are going, or at least think of where they would go. After a few downs, be familiar with the teams playing style so you know where to point the cam.
