So I don't have much luck catching fish and I thought I should maybe try some photography while I'm out on the water. We have lots of birds around so I've been looking at the Canon SX 50 Hs and I'd like to get your opinions on this, or something similar. It costs around $400, so I guess that would be a baseline budget for me. I don't care much for the idea of changing lenses, but I'm so uneducated in photography that I'd like to hear from those of you who have been at it for a while.

Appreciate your thoughts....good or bad
