# Crikey.
I'd say a 300 mm lens is good, but for 300 squid, probably a zoom lens. I've got a Sony rather than a Canon, so I couldn't help so much on that. Try this place: www.birdforum.net/forumdisplay.php?f=292
Birdforum's Canon subforum, centres around what Canon bits and bobs are best for birding.

If his camera body is fairly new and does OK images in high iso, I guess a zoom will be sufficient despite letting in a little less light.
