new favorite band, video does not due this set justice, vocals were much lower and the bass was slamming, still pretty cool

That's what I plan on doing, figured leaving earlier would give more time to figure out parking and finding a good spot around the track though.

Might be hitting up lensrentals.com in a bit

300mm f4 IS only $48 for 3 day on lensrentals.

I'm just gonna shoot my 70-200mm 2.8 IS + 1.4xTC to make a 98-280mm f4 IS

I looked into getting the 400mm 2.8 from Calumet but they want a $7500 hold on a credit card.


If I had $7500 open on a credit card I'd be buying that lens used myself.

I'm debating between that or the 400 f/5.6, same price I think. I'll bring my 70-200 too.

f/4 > f/5.6 and Road America viewing is so close to the track you probably won't need the extra 100mm anyway.

The pro I'm going with says he uses his 300mm there and it's plenty.
