I would like to buy a telephoto lens for my Canon 60D. Here are some options that other birders have mentioned where I live.
Canon EF 100-400 f/4.5 - 5.6 IS USM
Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM - use with TCs
Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM (used) - Even though this is the pricest, I could manage the cost and have read other people use this one with TCs
Sigma APO 300mm F2.8 EX DG HSM - can this one be used with TCs
Sigma 150-500mm F5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM
Sigma 50-500mm f/4.5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM
So many choices - makes for even more confusion. I would like to spend my money wisely without the worry of possibly wanting to upgrade in the near future. I have a friend who recently traded in their lenses for upgrades.
Thanks in advance for any input.
