A couple bald eagles sent me into a camera hobby, they fucking ruined me those birds. I'm broke as shit and my lens still isn't long enough.

The only reason I didn't impulse buy a teleconverter to tack on my impulse bought 600mm is that it would just get me (more) underexposed pictures. But the urge is real, and we don't even have bald eagles around here.

Cmon, a long lens with 2.0 aperture is only 4-6k. Totally worth it.

Why settle when I could get a 800mm 5.6 for a mere 14k?
