A 120-300mm is what I dream of for ice level hockey images.

I’m thinking the 120-300mm is for people shooting full frame but used to the range of a 70-200 on a crop sensor.

“If the performance of the 35mm f/1.4 that was released late last year is any indication of the performance of these two new lenses, we have a lot to be excited about.”

Don’t know about the 17-70, but the 120-300 is (alledgedly) the same optics as the old version, just a new skin and updated AF.

I thought DC lenses are for APS-C lens?

The make or break feature of the 120-300mm lens will be how fast it focuses. If they are targeting pro sports they need exceptional focusing speed. If it can hang w/Nikon and Canon..this lens will sell like autofocus did in the 80′s!

But my guess would be that the focusing speed will hold it back from making it a common lens in pro sports.

For that price I would think it’s made for everyone don’t you think? So inexpensive!
