Hi, I'm just after a bit of advice.
I've been given a wonderful birthday present from my wife and daughters, a day with a professional photographer at Gauntlet Birds of Prey centre on the outskirts of Manchester.
I'm very new to DSLR photography after having a superzoom bridge camera for approx 10 years.
I only have a kit lens for my camera (18-140) and was wondering if this would be enough for the day?
I am considering renting a lens for the day, possibly the Nikon 70-300 or 200-500.
Apparently we have the opportunity to photograph the birds indoors (portrait?) and then outside where the handlers will get the birds to fly about.
Has anyone been on such a day? and if so, could you offer any advice on what to expect.
Also, any other advice in regards to settings, clothing, accessories to take and the such would be much appreciated, thanks.
