Can anyone reccommend a nice lens for the Nikon F65 camera?

I’m fed up with having photos of a speck in the sky with wings!

For ground-to-air shots you can get very good results with a lens with a maximum range of 300 mm. It just needs some careful planning of the pictures you’re after and the ground positions to get them from. In the past I’ve even managed to get quite reasonable photo’s with lenses as short as 135mm.

I would recommend to look at a Sigma HSM f4/100-300mm. Fast, sharp, easy to handhold and not too expensive. This lens could also be used with a 1.4 converter to make it a f5.6/140-420mm.
