MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 I have to agree that if you want to do wildlife photography you really need a DSLR camera and a telephoto lens, so you will need to double your budget and add a bit more if you want to buy new. A pocket sized compact job justisn't going to deliver the goods Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Romany 1,065 Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 (edited) Any digital Nikon or Canon over 6 mega pixels.. 10-12 or above in mega pixels is a waste of money, unless your a pro and going to be printing 24x36 prints..6 mega pixels will print off 13x19 prints easily..if your only wanting 8x10 prints 5 mega pixels will do..as a total wildlife photographer I go more for how many frames per second, thats one of the reasons I opted for a camera thats capable of 8 fps.. Lense...the best you can afford Edited June 6, 2010 by Romany Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 Have a look at Nikon D3000, Canon 1000D, or Pentax K-x models. You will also need a 70-300mm lens or similar to fit on the camera. Alternatively something like this or this might suit you. These are known as bridge cameras and have fixed lenses, and are therefore quite limited, but the image quality is reasonable Quote Link to post Share on other sites
