jos_tul Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I have a plan to go to the Zoo and the Garden in NYC this weekend. Any suggestions for the Lens. I do have a Rebel Ti as of now. Suggestions welcome ~ Jos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b.j._porter Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 Are you looking to buy something, rent something, or just pull something out of your bag of existing lenses? If it's buy, what's your budget? What do you own already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
les Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Canon 100-400, Sigma 80-400, Canon 300/4, Canon 400/5.6, Canon 70-200+1.4TC... The possibilities are endless. The question: do you need to buy it or have you got it already ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mormegil Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 If you're going to NYC, you can probably rent it there. Adorama definately rents. Give them a call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbq Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Get 400mm at the very least. If shooting f/5.6, you either want an image stabilizer or 800 film (I prefer fuji, CZ or NPZ depending on your budget). I shoot a lot of zoo stuff with my 400/5.6 on a 10D, and most shots are are ISO 400 or ISO 800. If you can get your hands on a second body and load it with ISO 100, do it.

jos_tul Posted May 25, 2004 Author Share Posted May 25, 2004 Looks like Adorama is closed for another 2-3 days. Is there any other good rental place for Camera lens in NYC. Thanks ~ Jos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
