I've been using a canon 20D with the old version of the 70-300mm zoom, but I have decided to upgrade to a 7D mark II. However, I'm not sure which lens to get. I was pretty sure that I'd go for the new canon 100-400mm mark II, but it is considerably bulkier than what I've been used to.
I'm also considering the 70-300 mm L series zoom as a lighter alternative. I mean is the extra 100mm going to make that much of a difference as far as reach is concerned? What do other birders think about the 7d mark II + the 70-300mm combination?
Are there other lightweight lenses I could consider?
I am more of a birder than a bird photographer, but I do enjoy taking shots of birds; especially when I go traveling to new places.
