p.1 #1 · Hummingbird Lense

I got into photographing hummers mid summer 2007. The longest lense I have is 200 mm which I know is way too short. Just wondering what Canon lenses and at what distance would be good choices. Budget limited to about $1500.00
Thanks,
Rodney

Rodney, I used a Canon f2.8 70-200 and a sigma prime 300 last year to shoot hummers. If you spend a lot of time in your yard shooting them, you can get up close and personal.
