i know the title has been done but i am not asking it as it seems
ok i am still fairly new to Photography (2 months)
what i want is more reach than what i have (tamron 70-300 di ld) and better IQ
mainly it is for bird pictures, BIF and wildlife etc.
now i did have a go with a Nikon 200-500 the other week and boy could i see the difference in IQ between that and my Tamron 70-300 it was like chalk and cheese so to speak.
i have not had a go with a sigma but have seen quite a few good reviews.
i have the funds at the moment to buy a sigma but not a nikon
As a hobbyist (i use that carefully as i know most are) will i get good enough IQ etc. with the sigma or will i be wishing i had waited and saved for the Nikon ?
^ the sentence above i guess is what i was getting to but wanted to try and be clear about my usage and expectations etc.
p.s. the camera body i have is a D7000
