I've got access to my wife's Olympus 4/3 camera but the price of lenses is prohibitive for that too. I guess the cheapest option is to get closer.
100% tire kicking, but how much are you after for the 550D?

Right there. The most fun too. If you are close no need to use a big zoom so you will get a better quality picture anyway. I don't profess to being any kind of photographer but I get photos of game I am happy with by stalking in. I took this one a couple of weeks ago in light rain at about 40m using a basic Panasonic TZ80 compact zoom. It won't win any photographic prizes but I guess it depends on what you expect. For me it's more about content than absolute quality.

PS. Where is you get the photo of the White Tail?
