I've recently learned that Peregrine Falcons nest in areas in the Mt Diablo region near my house...but naturally the nesting sites are off limits during nesting and are on huge rock cliffs well above the valley/floor. I attended a non profit wildlife exhibition the other day and spoke to some people that belong to the peregrine team, and one of the leading photographers of that group said he got all his shots using a Nikon P1000. Said it zoomed to 3000mm, and showed me a close up nest shot on his iPhone. I'm a Canon person, and searching the Canon site cannot find any lens that has that kind of reach. Normally I would not purchase a camera for just a single bird, but thinking I may have a unique opportunity that is very close to my house. Does anybody have any knowledge about this camera ? Is it truly a quality image capturing device, or would I be less than happy with the results. It's Nikon, so I'd have to learn new gear, but for the price, maybe it might get me the reach to capture an image of these birds that otherwise I might not reach even with 600mm and purchasing a 2x TC ?? Hoping someone here might have some info and/or opinion ? Most all my glass is Canon "L" glass, so kinda spoiled.
