Hey gang,
I am a KS2 owner from which I have upgraded from two KX's. I have just joined a friend who has Nikon set up and she likes to go out to take pictures of nature. She enjoys to shoot whales, birds, dogs, horses and other animals. Most of her pics are at a distance due to necessity. I want to join her but I am a street type of photog and do not have anything for distance pics. I look around and I can not afford the cost of those quite large lenses and if I could I do not know which. Can someone one direct me towards something. I have the following lenses because I have been lucky to have inherited, bought, or had them included with my KX's and now my KS2. in the list after new it came with the KS2. I usually gravitate to a few lenses and now I am playing around with the new lenses as well as getting use to my KS2. Now can you either suggest a lens or maybe one of mine could do for it. I have played with the zooms I have but I have not had the time to stray from the usual since In Montreal has so much that i like to shoot at.
