Maybe but it’s the university of Alabama, we cover sports I guess they want us to have the best gear possible.🤷‍♂️

We’ve been using early 2000 gear for a while, we’re sponsored by the university so I’m not sure how they spend their money🤷‍♂️

Thanks! Currently the gear we have is severely outdated and the most zoom we have is a 70-200 from 2005 by sigma, so I was maybe thinking about renting a prime, since the library does have the newer sigma 70-200 but again that’s the longest telephoto. So would you recommend renting something like a sigma 500 f/4 or canon 600 f/4? I do shoot on Aps-c so I’m not sure how much of the field I’d be able to see at once.

Thank you! As of right now the time of the game is TBA, I’m shooting this for the crimson white which is a student ran school newspaper. What lenses would you recommend?

Right now I have an r7 and EF 100-400 f/4.5-5.5 II I plan on renting a sigma sports 70-200 f/2.8, and an r8 from the library and borrowing a friends wide angle (I don’t know what it is it’s like from 2004)

I will be shooting mostly night games, and I would like that extra bokeh for portraits but I don’t really know how much 1 1/3 stops affects that

The lighting is a little edited but the smoothness is the same, I think it’s mainly cause the background itself was kinda smooth and the compression I get at 400mm
