Do I need 70-200 lens?

If you shoot a lot of indoor sports, you’ll need the speed of the 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. Gyms and indoor arenas, as well as stadium lights can have terrible, dim lighting. You’ll need a fast (wide) aperture of the f/2.8 lens to shoot at shutter speeds fast enough to stop action.

Which is better 55 250mm or 75 300mm?

The 55-250 IS is excellent value for money and a far superior buy than any 75-300 zoom. I have one and it compares quite well with far more expensive lenses. The 70-300 IS is potentially a better choice mainly for its longer reach but it costs much more and is bigger and heavier.

Is 70 200 good for portraits?

For many portrait photographers, the 70-200mm f/2.8 lens is considered the key to great results. This lens seems like it covers all the bases that any portrait photographer would want: wide aperture, a range of good focal lengths, and excellent build quality.

What is the Canon 75 300mm lens good for?

This 4x telephoto zoom lens is ideal for the budget-conscious photographer with an interest in shooting sports, wildlife or portraiture. In common with other telephoto lenses, the EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III compresses perspective and allows the photographer to restrict depth of field.

How far can a 70 200mm lens shoot?

On top of that, many lenses of that length will not perform well in low light and you may end up with a blurry image and poor composition. At 50ft from the subject, about 8 rows back, the 70-200mm range still works. The only shots you won’t get with that length are an ultra-wide of the stage and a close-up of a face.
