Re: FM Canon Contest: Wildlife photography on a shoestring budget


I used to take some decent wildlife shots with my old 20D. I bought it used for about $500, but it now sells for about $150. My longest telephoto at the time was the Canon 70-300mm f4-5.6 IS which I paid about $500 for (now it goes for only about $400). Here are a few from 2006-2009:































I thought that I had the ultimate wildlife setup at the time. The Images from the 20D still look pretty good to this day (much better than the 10D) while I grew tired of the slow focus and OK sharpness of the lens. This set up could be bought used for likely under $400 today.
