Hi folks,
I have a D7100 and I'm looking to get my first proper wildlife lens. I normally shoot landscapes, but I've had the itch to shoot foxes, squirrels and deer etc for a while now. The longest lens I have at present is a Nikon 55-200mm VR which just isn't long enough and I've never liked the image quality.
Because of my budget, I've narrowed my lens down to either a Tamron 70-300mm VC or an old Nikon AF 300mm ED (the Nikon is going to be a little more expensive). I expect the Nikon will be the better of lens, but I've read that the auto focus is slow and it's also very heavy.
Thanks
