Yes, I know about the Sigma f1.8 zoom but based on reviews I'm not confident about the focus speed.
Here's what I'm trying to do (I'll add pics when I get home): my kid dragged me to Woodward Tahoe where they have big skateboard ramps that end in foam pits. He insisted I use the 7D II because of the 10 fps (I normally use the 5d3). He was right, fun shots.
I was using the 17-55 f2.8, mostly at 20mm (they let me stand in the foam pit so the skaters were right next to me). The light was not so great so I was shooting at 1/320th, ISO 8000. Hence my desire to find a prime at f.14 or f1.8. I know about the Canon 24mm II but that appears to be soft wide open (according to Brian and I trust his reviews).
I have to believe someone here has done the same thing and found a lens they like.
I suppose the alternative is to get a used 1Dx I and use it with my 35mm f2
