Follow-up to the birding photography thread.

[Stewart Ford <>]

Hi all,

For the photographers out there, I read an amusing article on the use 
of lenses at: 
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/columns/sm-august-04.shtml. There's a 
particularly funny bit concerning standard telephoto zooms (reprinted 
here for your enjoyment).
"Standard telephoto zoom (70 or 80 to 180, 200, or 210):

Whether slow or fast, indispensable for most photographers, amateur or 
pro. Used for all kinds of action, activity, fashion, portrait, 
headshot, reportage, sports, wildlife, landscape, and nature 
photography. Covers all the telephoto range most photographers ever 
need, at least until they become afflicted by the terrible urge to 
photograph birds."
