A camera is nothing with a lense attached to it, and even more in the extremely demanding conditions of a ultra – distant picture.
We have selected some of the best lenses in the market, ranging in prices and portability, to fit your needs in the best possible way
Sigma 18 – 300 mm F 3.5 – 6.3 DC Macro HSM
There is an option to use a Telephoto Zoom Lense, like the Sigma 70 – 300, which is not expensive at all and can provide good details, whilst being also practical for other daily life pictures like trips of portraits.
Benefits: Low Budget, Different Uses, Not Heavy

Tamron SP 150-600mm F / 5-6.3 Di VC USD G2
This is one of the best Lenses for Long Distance Photography in the balance between Budget and Image Quality. The long range of this Telephoto lense allows you up to an (equivalent) of 900 mm. which is more than enough for any landscape and Far Sighting.
On the other side, it is more heavy than the Sigma above, but it compensates that with a great Image Quality.
If you like as well Nature Photography, you will love this Lense.
Benefits: Image Quality, Zoom, Autofocus (more on this later).

Apochromatic Refractor SkyWatcher ED80
This is absolutely the top of the line here.
With the only addition of Manual Focus (which is, I would say, a more real approach to Photography) a Telescope added to your DSLR can provide the best Image Quality of the products we have highlighted for you.
This comes as a result of the simple optics (usually 2 or 3 lenses, far less than the 9 of a usual telephoto lense) and the Apochromatic Coating and Materials used. This is usually a very valued characteristic in Astrophotography, which we use in our benefit for Long Distance Pictures.
Anyway… what can be better to capture sights at more than 400 Km. away than what it’s use to image the Stars!
Benefits: Image Quality, Lense Simplicity, Multiuse.
