We feel really privileged - happened to chance on a Red Kite near Millington Woods this afternoon and spent 10 minutes watching the magnificent bird swirling across the fields looking for food (usually we see such wonderful birds and they disappear immediately). They say a picture paints a 1,000 words. Well, mine only paint about a 100. Used a Tamron 18-250mm zoom lens at its limit on my K-s2. These photos are cropped and not in focus but are the best I could do. What lens do I need to get to get better BIF pix pls without spending a fortune? (BTW, I have tried a 500mm mirror lens and could not get on with it!) . . . . . Comment Image

Gotta K-3iii now, had a K-S2, K50 and so suffering from a relapse and so buying digital camera kit.
Previous addiction has resulted in using Zeniths, Yashicamat, Chinons, Minoltas, Samsungs, Fujis, Cosina, Kodak, Lumix, Canon, Nikon and Pentax etc etc - have tried most makes in the past 50 years. Love cameras - love taking photos even more

Rather than post twice, much better only once otherwise people won't know which post to reply to. The other post seems to have attracted the right answers!
