They only require a quick shot good enough for a front page of a news paper. I think its also well know that the Canon lenses are lighter to carry/run around with........which they do much of the time even though many are shown in the rigged mode here. dj

So fine art is the standard for 300-600mm+ lenses then? A rather...well...interesting argument. Strange that artsy Nikon similarly makes so many of these worthless, non-artistic long teles like Canon does. Why would they do that??  All my favourite photogs (Martin Paar, HCB, Walker Evans, etc.) are famous for their sublime sports shots. My ultimate wish is to photograph people playing overglorified games... Look up "sour grapes" in the dictionary, mate.
