Hi Everyone.
Ok, I could do with some help. I have recently purchased a Canon 500D camera. I'd very much like to start doing some bird photography. I have about £1000 at my disposal and I can't decide what to buy.
I've read that the Canon EF 400mm is a good lens but also the Sigma 150-500mm lens is also worth considering. My other dilema is that I only own a pair of binoculars so would it also be worth considering buying a decent scope and doing some digiscoping. Can I use the Canon's body and attach it to a scope adaptor.
I could really do with some advice and guidance if possible. I've been a keen moth recorder for many years but want to start branching out into the bird world ASAP.
Thanks
Simon
