I swapped to Canon for the Canon 400 5.6, but have recently been using the Sigma 150-600. I think these fit on your camera and would seriously consider one. The camera would probably feel small on the end of that lens, but I find you take most of the weight holding the lens anyway. Great for raptors with the extra reach, you can do microfocus adjustments with the lens which you can't do on the camera (I think) and you can upgrade later with one of the newer Nikon cameras which I think are better in low light.</p></blockquote><p></p>
