New guy here.
Currently using a Kx (had K10 for a while which the children kindly smashed, and budget dictated Kx..which I like.) with the following lenses.
Autofocus lenses: Kit 18-55- Came with the Kx SMC F 24-50 f/4- Came along with the K10-https://www.pentaxforums.com/lensreviews/SMC-Pentax-F-24-50mm-F4-Zoom-Lens.html
Old Sigma push-pull 70-210 UC 4-5.6 That has light internal fungus issues, was meant to get me through a season of youth football.
Sigma 70-210mm F4-5.6 UC Lens Reviews - Sigma Lenses - Pentax Lens Review Database Manual Focus: Chinon Manual multicoated 135 2.8 (my not paying for school photo's portrait lens)-https://www.pentaxforums.com/userreviews/chinon-135mm-f2-8-multi-coated.html
Now, here's the actual question:
I managed to shoot about 25% decent to very well timed shots of my sons Football games (using the 135, and moldy sigma). I need a better zoom lens for this year so I can toss the spore jar. Funds are limited for sure, so I'm looking for good IQ (so I can crop), and decent AF speed. I thought about the SMC F 70-210, but feel the two choices below are better. So given the less than ideal constraints below, which would you pick and why. Sub $100 was my goal.
Either:
DSLR era DA-L 50-200 4-5.6 WR, or
Film era Sigma (Zeiss design?) 75-200 f3.8 lens for roughly the same ($60-70) amount
