Hello! I’m exclusively shooting small birds, hand held. I need to upgrade from current set up: Nikon D700 + Tamron 160-600 G2. Currently I have no eye tracking, back button focus stopped working, and shutter malfunctions at 1/8000. It’s also heavy. So want something lighter that will help with getting a much better ratio of great shots. Usually focus, lack of sharpness are the issues. ** I’m open to a new lens as well as a new camera for sure. **
One young new owner of a local camera store repair owner said Olympus is hands down the best for birds and he doesn’t carry Olympus in his shop (Previous owner let some brands lapse). Yet I most often read about Canon and Nikon used for birds. What do you all recommend??! Specifics oils be appreciated. Ready to upgrade asap. Thank you!!
