telephoto zooms just arn't for taking pictures of animals at the zoo or shooting motorsport. I used my 100-400 L to take picture of my son playing in the back garden, I don't tend to use shorter focal lengths since it gets in his way. The kit lens is only a small focal range and I think unless...
the sigma TC will only work with the 70-200 F4 out of these
Sigma 70-300mm APO
Tamron 70-300mm (James)
Canon 55-250mm IS
Canon 70-200 F4L
The price range is quite different too between them. If you can afford it get the 70-200 f4 L and buy form kerso on ebay to save cash.
cp - circulare poloriser. its usefull for removing reflection son one plane but it also reduces light by 1.5-2stops so acts as an ND (you guiessed right)
get the mount set up and do a dumby exposure of the time you want then check the histogram and LCD pic to see if you need to dial in...
if you are goiong to use it during the day I recomend you use a CP and some ND filters and/or use a car park. you'll loose a bit of sharpness but you'll be able to use a longer shutter speed that way you'll get a lot more blur. also don't have your iso set to 400 diffraction will occur above...
thats because of the darkness and the noise.
to take pictures with a phone you need decent light. also change the white balance when you tak pics at night stops them being yellow
tokina 12-24 f4 looks an impressive lens and the nikon 12-24 f4 but you ay through the nose for the nikon. tokina is around £400 IIRC as I considered it before I got the canon. sigma 10-20 was not very good.
the buffer will only take so many shots but how fast you clear the buffer is important. sandisc extreme 3 are the fastest with the ultra2 the next best thing.
Hi like before Im still looking for a 182 (with stripes now) and a V6 for photographs for possible use in the new pipercross catalogue. Ive had a few offers of non striped 182s but no striped ones
If you can help please email me.

you need permission (easy enough to get) to take photos there. depends what sort of back drop. you can have it blurred or in focus depending on the setting
