My longest lens is a 400mm f/5.6, and I've been using it quite successfully lately for birding. Expect an article on that soon. As far as reach is concerned, nobody can touch The Black Dragon on Dave's camera :-) Rosey,

Is all this rain making you lazy? Dave, you must be eating your heart out - you try so hard - buying 1000 mm glass and still struggling to get the bird to look close... and mis goes and gets the same bird with a mini 'almost not' camera... (Still, I hope you'll keep trying... don't give up hope... maybe you will need to take out a BB gun and start random shooting at the squirrels that get close to your house... leave a few dead squirrels to draw them in closer. Then, Mis will have nothing to compare with that 1000mm glass. (It may tempt him to carry his 'real' camera again... and maybe even go lens shopping for some 'big' glass. ) Mis, I can’t believe you didn’t have your ‘real’ camera on you … you used to carry it everywhere.
