300 ft would be the extreme maximum and i was considering the length of a soccer or football field... Indoor max shooting range would be under 200 ft, probably closer to 150-75.
Thanks for the equation...

I just bought a K-x.. and am now faced with a problem, although Dallas/Fort Worth is a HUGE Metropolitan area...it seems Canon and Nikon have monopolized the market. I cant find anywhere that sells Pentax lenses/accessories. I've been to all the stores the internet SAYS carry Pentax, even the retailers listed on Pentax's site; but, none of them actually carry anything. A couple said they could special order items, but heck I can do that.... being a total newbie with dSLR's and photography in general, I need some "hands on" shopping...
Anyone in the area that could lend some help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I know this question has probably been asked and answered a thousand times, but i am bleary eyed from searching and reading on the computer. Sooo...
I need an affordable Lens for shooting indoor sporting events with ranges varying from 10 ft to probably 300 ft. I know there are some awesome lens for $700 to $1500.. but I am not a rich man... i need to know what the general concesus is for the best lower end lens. 200mm or 300mm.
I am currently using the K-X and the 18 55 kit lens. Which is good enuf for me if I can get close to the action, but usually that isnt the case.
My budget would preferably be <$400.


Thanks for your patience and help.
