Looking to buy some more lenses for my Canon. What are generally the "Standard" sizes you guys use in motocross and other sports?

70-200 is a general must for any photographer.

And don't cheap out and get the f4 version. f2.8 is also a must. :wink:

Well we could also just go 85 f/1.2, 135 f/2.8 and 200 f/2!

Just wanted to share one of my favorite photographs I took at Unadilla MX just last weekend while shooting for Racer X, would love to hear some feedback! and for the comments above mine, buy a 300mm! I absolutely love mine.

I had an f2.8, sold it and got an f4. It's just so much smaller and easy to carry around that I can't justify the extra cost. If you have a body with good ISO capabilities, you're good imo. Also it could just be my copy, but I find the f4 a lot sharper, and it's extremely good wide open.

If you want to shoot SX events in the US, then the f4 doesn't cut it.

True, didn't think of that. I guess it depends on what you're using it for, I never needed the f2.8.

You can crank ISO for exposure, but it is really nice to achieve a shallower depth of field via wider aperture.

That's true but imo that doesn't make up for it's weight, size and price. I guess it all depends on what your needs are.
