Solution

Canon 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS 

With the kids games quickly approaching and no zoom lens that I am ready to purchase in sight I found a web site called LensRentals where you can rent a lens that you might be considering buying or one that is so expensive you would just like to try it {instead of salivating over it every time you see it}. I decided on the 100-400 for the soccer and football pictures I would like to take this fall and I wanted to check out this focal length because if I really get the new cannon lens {18-200} this would be the other lens that I might like to have {for the sports pictures}. It has already been shipped so I should have it in my hot little hands by Tuesday. I won't have it for this weekend but by next weekend I hope to have some great action sport pictures to show for it. Oh, and by the way, after what happened to my lens, I purchased insurance on this one.

Where did you find out about this??? I LOVE the concept of renting a lens....I needed to know about this six months ago when I was having lens trouble. Can't wait to hear how you like that lens. It looks amazing!
