Nikoneers:
I will likely be shooting a NASCAR stockcar autorace in the near future.
Most of the time will be spent just behind the pits. I currently own a N70
with a 35-80 offbrand lens and a N 80-200 2.8D. It has been suggested that
I'll need a second body with a wide angle lens for the race.
1st question): What second body should I get? I'm not a pro, but
appreciate the advantages of newer technology. I could probably afford a
N90s or even stretch to get a F100, but I'm not sure what that will buy me.
2nd question): What lens to get? I've been planning to purchase a 20-35
zoom. Maybe the Tokina. The Nikon is out of reach. But a friend suggested
that I just get a prime - 20, 22, 24?
I would appreciate any advice on a good wide angle setup from those of you
that have shot similar events.
Also, how does one handle two bodies, especially when one has the 80-200 2.8
on it? That configuration is heavy enough by itself!
TIA,
Dave Bloomquist
