Digital Cameras:
Canon D60 w 70-200 F4L (Looking for longer lens maybe Canon 100-400 F 5.6 L or Sigma 50-500 EX), Nikon Coolpix 700 (No Good for Birding as no zoom)
Binocs:
Nikon 7 x 21 7.1 (Circa 1980) I would really like to get a new pair with a little more power though I would keep these as they are nice and compact and still work like new. I have looked at the Canon 10 x 40? IS model and was impressed with how well the IS worked and the apparent value (<$400 US). Anybody have any experience with IS binocs? From my test at the store I think I might even be able to go for a higher power with the IS, but am not sure I would care for the extra weight and really need the extra power.
