To get a good quality of photo, not just for a picture to identify the bird. I understand it matters what lens and the size of the bird. But just to simplify, let's say it is shot with 45MP full frame (or 20MP crop sensor) and 600mm with 1.4tc.
There is a osprey nest about 2hr drive for me, and I heard the distance of the nest to the shore is about 80 yard. I wonder 840mm would be enough to get some good pictures. For my own criteria, the max crop I can go is the picture should have at less 8MP. If 8MP after the crop, the bird is still small then I don't think the picture is great. I am kind of debating whether to go. Thank you!
