Q: QuestionI have a Nikon D5100. Looking to take shots of paintball action. What lens?I have a Nikon D5100. Looking to take shots of paintball action. What lens? Looking to take pics of paintball action and dot know what lens would work. I'd be behind a mesh net and the actions would be done on a length no bigger than football field. Would a 18-200 work? I'm not a professional..so I don't need to spend thousands on a lens. Just want to be able to capture action in good quality. Or a 70/200, 70/300?

• A:Answer The 70-200 f4 is a great lens. In bright light, it focuses fast and accurately. depending on how close you want to be to the action, you might want more reach but with a DX sensor this gives you the equivalent of 300mm. The 70-300 is significantly slower focus and is a variable f-stop lens. This means the further you zoom, the less light is available to the sensor. Both are great lenses and I have shot birds in flight with both lenses so you can capture rapid action.

• A:Answer The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR is a beautiful compact lens that offers outstanding performance. This versatile lens is lightweight and fast, perfect for the photographer on the go, and has Vibration Reduction, Nano Crystal Coating and Extra-low Dispersion glass to help you capture images that are super sharp and vivid. In addition, you can connect the lens to a compatible teleconverter such as the AF-S TC- 14E III and achieve a 1.4x magnification of your subject, so the smallest of details will always be tack-sharp.
