I was delighted to get a sight of the Snow Bunting yesterday. A lovely little bird with a tame personality.
A great element of fluke about it as I caught it in the corner of my eye!
Great run through of the pros and cons.
I wasn't actually digging M43 out, but think that for the price this is as good an option as something like the E-M1 Mark II.

Thanks John! We did in fact go there before Blashford, it was great. Saw a load of Goosander and started the day off by throwing my new binos in the lake (complete accident - clearly overexcited!)

Any huge technological advances will be left for 2020 and the 1D X III (Olympics year =...
Ha! Upgraded both the camera and the lens in the end.
Great choices though, how are you finding them both? Did the Mk II lens warrant the upgrade? I know the 80D would've been a well-worthy one from your previous camera - great choice there.
Hi there!
Just starting to get into this all a bit at the moment, particularly interested in the photography side of things. Have a varied range of Canon equipment, and like to experiment at the moment until I find the sticky piece of kit for me!
Look forward to learning from some like-minded...
