  One good possiblity is to use Canon's own FD lenses. Since they don't fit anything else, they are coming down in price. Look at the 300mm f4. You'll need to use a tripod and cable release with this. US mail order used equipment dealers, such as keh.com will ship to Canada. Don't be afraid of a KEH "Bargain" lens. The glass will be just fine. Pick up a Canon 1.4 x or 2x extender to go with that.
