For the past 20 years, my career as a sports photographer has been defined by two lenses: the Nikon 200mm f/2 and the Nikon 600mm f/4. These primes have been my workhorses, delivering unparalleled image quality, speed, and reliability.
I’ve long believed in the precision and optical excellence of prime lenses, and to this day, all my personal work is shot exclusively with them. But when it comes to covering live sports, where speed and adaptability are paramount, I can’t deny that the latest generation of super-zoom telephoto lenses represents the future of professional sports photography.
