Hi folks

I've decided that I want another camera body, as when I'm doing Motorsport I have to change lens which is becoming very annoying

But can't decide on which body to get, I use a 550d just now but do I upgrade my lens and keep the 550d as my second or get another 550d or similar?

Also needing new tele photo lens as 200mm is a tad to short at times

All helpful comments welcomed

That's really confusing.

You're saying you've decided to get a 2nd body to prevent lens swapping ? but you're asking whether you should get a longer lens :thinking:
 
Your 50-200 will be fine for much of Knockhill. I use a 100-400 and can go the whole day without changing lenses unless I go down to the hairpin where I switch to my 70-200 as you are so close to the edge of the track.
 
I bought another D90 so I had 2 identical bodies to avoid confusion when swapping!

I keep my 70-200 on one and something wider on the other.

It's good but feel as I need a touch more length at some parts specially when near fences

Been looking at the 100-400 myself but budget won't stretch that far I'm afraid

Yeah I'm thinking off getting another 550d as I really like it if I find one at the good price, I'd be doing the same but put my 18-55 on it as do some pit shoots aswell
