Tell me what you think! Shooting this made me start saving even more for a 70 or 80-200mm f2.8! the 50-200mm just wasnt cutting it.

Looks like the 50-200 held its own to me !! great shots

Why don't you like the 50-200? That third-from-last and last shots seem to be keepers!
Looks like it was fun!

Its not that I don't like the lens, as I absolutely love it in the daytime when the light is good, its just that for this kind of shooting (low light, fast action) the max aperture 5.6 at 200mm just isnt cutting it. Thats all. It also has a slight backfocusing issue too
