Evening all
I was offered a position as the main photographer of a sponsor for the BDC (British drift championship) today, basically for next years BDC season and other track events in between.
This means i'll no longer be shooting on full zoom from the crowd and instead be on the actual track as media.
I've been considering upgrading my kit recently anyway but think this gives be the excuse to push the boat out abit more,
I'd need a new lens as most of mine are budget lenses and a new body.
Lens wise id like a quality lens with allows a wide/fast aperture even at longer focal lengths, a mate suggested a sigma 200mm f2.8 but I dont know much about it,
I've never owned a lens with the VR feature, is there a stabilising thing on the higher end lenses? are they any good for panning and longer shutters? (mainly the up and down motion i'd like to see a reduction in lol)
For the body I'd really prefer a FF body but my budget for the lot will only be about 2k at a stretch :/ which I why im asking
What could I be looking at for that sort of cash?
Cheers
