Thanks all for the replies. I'm not fast enough, I can admit that, but for the prices involved you've sold me on both. I'll pick up an old manual focus and probably get the pentax zoom as well. Now to talk the mrs. into the extra cost for the 300mm over the 200mm

Excellent help, thanks again.

I'm still a beginner, and was hoping for advice on a telephoto lens for my k200d for both baseball and football.

Here in the Pacific NW, it's often overcast or grey during the sports seasons, and the boys are rarely closer than 40feet and move quickly. The 18-55 kit lens just isn't cutting it.

My original plan was a zoom telephoto that fills the range past the kit lens like the sigma 70-300.

Ultimately, prime or zoom, I need a fast lens that can get some closeup shots of the boys on the run, even when the sun isn't shining.

I don't want to spend more than 200$ or so, since there's a decent risk this lens will get wet or dropped in the mud over the course of a couple seasons.

Ideas? Do I need a zoom (I think I do), any budget winners out there?

Thanks for the help.
