QN: F1 Singapore night race

DemonicAngelz · 29th August 2008

What lens is the minimum for catching these F1 cars in action?

Have a D70s and Sigma 70-200 f2.8

Wonder if that would be enough.

Depends on how far away you are sitting. If you're in a grandstand, I think your 70-200 will be good, though I'm bringing a 70-300 just in case.

Walkaround pass.

Then I'd bring 2 lenses in case you can get to a spot where there's a close and good view of the track.

I'll bring a 50 prime and telephoto.

The question is telephoto enough or not. I got 1.6x crop
