[QUOTE="BlueMac, post: 760739, member: 66150"] You will certainly want a telephoto lens. There are many good telephoto lenses out there, but since we don't know your price range, I will show several links. Here is one for a about 470$: [url=http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/449088-GREY/Nikon_2161_70_300mm_f_4_5_6G_AF_S_VR.html]Nikon | 70-300mm f/4-5.6G AF-S VR Autofocus Lens - Black | 2161[/url] That one has vibration reduction... which is useful. If you will be using a tripod, then there is no need to worry about VR. Here is one for less money: [url=http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/207359-USA/Nikon_1928_Zoom_Telephoto_AF_Zoom.html]Nikon | Zoom Telephoto AF Zoom Nikkor 70-300mm f/4-5.6G | 1928[/url] That lens is a basic, no frills telephoto zoom. It uses auto focus. Another for a moderate price. This lens has a great focal length, from 18-135mm. These are considered wide-telephoto lenses. [url=http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/449087-GREY/Nikon_2162_18_135mm_f_3_5_5_6_ED_IF_AF_S.html]Nikon | 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 ED-IF AF-S DX Lens | 2162 | B&H Photo[/url] Do shop around, though. These are some basic recommended lenses. Hope that was some help. [/QUOTE]
