Looking for a new lens for bird watching
Hi there - I have an XT20 at I purchased a few years ago. I have recently developed an interest in bird watching and would like to add a lens to my collection (I only have 2 lens and one of them is the kit lens 18 -55mm).
My local camera store has an XF 55-200mm f3.5-4.8 R LM OIS lens on sale from regular 939.99 to sale price 674.99 (this is Canadian dollars). This price is just a bit more than the FUJIFILM XC 50-230mm f4.5-6.7 OIS II which is currently selling at 539.99 CAD.
I am an amatuer at both photography and birding so I'm mostly interested in getting the bird into closer range.
Any thoughts?
Thank you in advance.

Vaporware no more: the much-speculated-about Zeiss ZX1 has arrived. Combining a 37MP full-frame sensor, minimalist controls and Lightroom Mobile built in, it's a refreshing – if a bit quirky – take on the smartphone-meets-camera concept.
The Leica Q2 Monochrom is a version of the Gold Award-winning Q2 that only shoots images in black and white. It's a niche (and pricey) product to be sure, but so far we find it to be well-designed and capable of outstanding results.
