Thanks for your very comprehensive response Dennis. I have the kit 17-55 and 55-250 lenses that came with the camera and I'm quite happy with them for most purposes. I really am just interested in getting good bird pictures. I live in the bush and there are lots around from eagles to Fairy Wrens and I'd like to get better pictures of them more conveniently than with my ED80. Especially the myriad Thornbills, Pardalotes etc. I take the camera on every walk through the bush so it will see plenty of work. I won't be investing in a 500mm any time before I win tattslotto (and I don't buy tickets) so 400 mm sounds like it.

Hoping for a good tax cheque...
