Soon after I spent up large on a Fujinon XF100-400mm F4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR zoom lens for taking photos of birds, Fuji have come out with an even bigger and only slightly more expensive lens: Fujifilm Announces The New XF150-600mm Lens. Sigh. Still, the lens I have is superb!

its reach is pretty tempting. This photographer tried it out already and got some great birding shots.

@ptrck Wow, his shots are wonderful. I have an enormous amount to learn before I could ever take shots as fabulous as those — whatever the camera and lens. Thanks for the link; that was very interesting.
