Hi,
I'm willing to buy a nikon d 60 and I need to select a good telephoto zoom lense for it.

My interest is to take good quality photos of birds/other wild animals in which I may need a lense with a good zoom power.

I tried to buy nikon coolpix p 90 but I heard that image quality is poor.
(But it had a 24x optical zoom power)

Will I be able to have the same zoom power or more with a nikon d60 + a zoom lense?
If so which lense shouol I buy?

I heard about sigma 70 - 300mm zoom lense but I dont know exactly about it.
Will I really need a tripod with this lense?

Is there any other lense with same zoom power and antishake property for similar price.

Where I can buy good digital SLR from Colombo, Sri Lanka.

I would be grateful if someone can help me.

Thanks.
Bye.
