Hi all,
I am planning to buy a Telephoto lens for Bird photography. My budget is around $1500. I have a Nikon D5100. I have two lens in my mind, Sigma 150 - 500mm, and Nikon 300mm F4. I more bent towards Nikon 300mm prime, for its sharpness and pricing.
But I have a doubt about the ease of using fixed focus lens for bird photography. Is it hard to find birds using the viewfinder for fixed focus lens ?
I would really appreciate inputs from people having experience in bird photography.
Thanks in advance.
