For hawk photos, try an organization like Hawks Aloft. Maybe they have a
web site. There's also plenty of wildlife photographers out there.

As for the 100-300 and 80-320 lenses, these lenses all get soft at their
tele ends. If you want a sharper lens and can do without the longer
length, look at the F/FA 80-200 f4.7-5.6.

I'm a school publications guy and I need some help finding a good shot of a
red-tailed hawk. I need an original 8x10 print or larger to blow up to
poster size. The photographer can retain all rights, but I'd like to get
rights in a deal to do a short run poster and use the photo in our school
publications. Any suggestions? I have moderate budget to play with on this.

Hi there, I've been lurking for a while since going to an MZ5 for my main 35mm. 

I'm a school publications guy and I need some help finding a good shot of a red-tailed 
hawk. I need an original 8x10 print or larger to blow up to poster size. The 
photographer can retain all rights, but I'd like to get rights in a deal to do a short 
run poster and use the photo in our school publications. Any suggestions? I have 
moderate budget to play with on this.

Also, I need some lens enabling. How do the longer Penatx AF zooms compare? Say 80-320 
vs. 100-300? Currently my lens lineup includes a 24/2.8 MF sigma, 28-70/4 FA, 50/1.7 
F, 100/2.8 F macro, and an old quantaray 70-210/4 MF one touch.

I'm on the digest, so please respond directly.

Thanks,
