>>3995053The fast primes ur recommending are probably very nice lenses, but really not super useful for wildlife/birds
30mm is REALLY wide for subject based photography, even when you're not shooting tiny targets that are actively trying to avoid you
i firmly believe the "only primes are sharp" thing is a meme too.
you can get decade old tammy super-telezooms for a couple hundred bucks if you check ebay enough and they're very usable.
