    I had been approached to photograph ladies high school soccer. The games are JV at 5 - 7PM and Varsity from 7 - 9PM. Lighting goes from GREAT to WTF over that time frame. Our stadium lighting is great as that goes, but as always, poses a problem. Other stadiums can be more problematic, so I feel blessed.Parents look forward to seeing quality photos of their athletes and it's my every intention of giving that to them. Ladies are very underrepresented IMHO. I've read a lot of reviews and went ahead and purchased the best friend a Canon photographer could have!The question was..to IS or not to IS? I went with "to not to." The more than obvious reason was because of my budget. The second obvious reason was because of the research I had done outside of Amazon. I asked myself what the pro sports photo guys and gals used. There were different schools of thought. Most said "to not to." Some said that they notice a trade off of to acquire the subject being longer with IS for a negligible difference. In many cases the IS's were not as sharp. My suggestion to you is to definitely google it yourself.MY results were phenomenal! I am VERY happy that I made the leap! ...AND not to the highest cost. I totally traded up! I can only refer to MY experiences and not tell you what to do, but I have found that the EF 70-200mm f/2.8 (non-IS) has worked out fabulous for me. My results speak for themselves. That said, I continually seek new and better ways to improve my skills. This lens helped in that effort. I no longer feel "as" restricted having stepped up to the L glass.The upside is that I have sold more photos this year than I have in the past...due in combination of marketing myself better and great action shots. If you have the funds, pick one up. I am happy that I did.I have a several photos that give you an idea of the results I was able to achieve as part of this review.Bottom line:~ Crystal clear images~ Better night action shooting~ I also picked up the "NEW Photography & Cinema pistol grip handle FOR Digital DSLR Cameras" through Amazon to help with keeping more stable. It was like $15. I developed a method for using it that helps me to manage the weight and zooming. I would consider it or something like it for yourselves. The EF 70-200mm is kind of heavy as lenses go. I used a monopod a couple of times for a couple of minutes, but feel somewhat restricted because of how I shoot. The grip helped a lot.
