[QUOTE="Vincent, post: 484451, member: 15675"] This is the kind of reaction I wanted to see. As you state: We all want to be closer It is not practical I also prefer 600mm over luring for example, and long lenses are more practical in general. Then how many times do you have the bird closer then the minimum focussing distance of your long glass? Happens regularly to me, not often enough though to stop with long glass. Outsmarting your subject can be a kick greater then having spend a lot of money. Getting close is very important. Does it eliminate the need for long glass? I also doubt it, but it is a point to consider when going for small birds. Personally, I do not have the time nor the patience to work close, nor the money for modern long glass (2,5 years saving is budgetted though.) Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
