I have a Sony 50x and have not come close to utilizing all it's potential. i'm going to veer out to left field, so watch others chew me out. drop $100.00 on a kenko 1.4x tc, practice until she is getting consistently good images. when she does, buy her a good sigma or tamron big lens.

Yup, and that is where I use my 600mm F4 at F4. Great isolation, even with a small subject. But the crop camera with the 50-500 at F8 ain't bad either.

My wife went from a Sony 50X to a Canon 6Ti with the 55 and 300mm kit lenses and would like something to recover some of the reach she has with the Sony. Can anyone suggest a decent lens I could get her for around $1000 to $1500?


Tamron G2 is better than the original, and still in your budget.
