    Hey, Everyone

    I’m new to the forum, and wanted to get a little real life experience with the 100-300mm 2.8.
    I’m shooting college football along with some highschool and little league, also shooting lacrosse. I’ve always used the 400mm 2.8 and was looking at the 100-300mm.
    I know the versatility of the 100-300 is great but is it to short for the sports I’m shooting? Sometimes I feel the 400mm gets a little tight when plays are moving towards you. I never used a 300, so I’m hoping I can get some honest feedback back if anyone used the 100-300.
    I’m also contemplating the R1 but I feel with using the 100-300 if I need to crop the r5 mkii might be a better option cause I’ll have more megapixels to crop. This is just a thought. If I’m over thinking it please let em know.
