I know I am looking for a an aperture around 2.8 or lower due to the horrible lighting, which means this is going to be pretty expensive. I don't think I can afford a zoom lens at over $700 so I am looking for help in what focal length prime lens I should get. Most of our meets are in convention centers, not traditional gyms. I am thinking 200mm would be best but I don't want to invest so much money without getting some help from people who shoot at gymnastic meets.
Just to be clear, I would love a zoom lens but it is not in my budget right now - not a 2.8 at least. I have a 5.6 and it has been less than impressive for the meets.
