I love it, the perspective is great. I kinda wanna get into bird-watching, do you recommend a certain camera or anything for spotting birds far away? I have a few forests nearby and I don’t wanna disturb the birds

Unfortunately, the gear can get pretty expensive especially when it comes to zoom lenses. Nikon D7500 with a with Tamron 100-400 Lens could be a good starter. I think you can find the camera around a thousand bucks or so, and the lens goes for about as much on top of that. I do most of my photography at a local park, and people feed the birds there so they're not afraid to get close. Makes it a lot easier to get these close up shots.
