Having received great advice from BF members on which camera to buy and I recently bought the Canon 350D.That apparantly is the easy bit the hard bit being getting a good telephoto lens to go with it so you have a chance of taking decent bird pics.
My budget is limited but I think I have narrowed it down to:-
Sigma 135-400 (DG or non DG)
Sigma 170-500 (DG or non DG)
Any advice would be much appreciated on these lenses or any others in this bracket.The non DG versions seem much cheaper if you can get them still.The Sigma 50-500 looks good but I cannot stretch that far.
I have scanned the web for the best deals and a firm called Digitalrev are very competitive with some great prices but I think they ship from HongKong which scares me a little.Anyone used them?
Max.
