Eriet, unless you are always wearing a TC on the 100400 keep it. The 200600 is for those of us who constantly need the reach and then some.

Gene second skipper is even better.
Needing more pixels....we're in the same boat.
SOOC and the crop.
Even at 840mm only 972 pixels on the wide side.

For the a9 just not enough pixels for good resolving....at this distance.

This is why I'm drawn to the new RIV more and more. If it has an improved AF, especially for tracking, that would be a big plus for me. I have to shoot wide for anything moving so I have at least some chance of keeping the subject within the viewfinder. That makes cropping in a must and I usually need to crop heavily.

I agree but you managed to pull some decent detail, Robert.

This is an easy 40 minute drive from my house in Vancouver BC. I'm fortunate to have such amazing scenery.

George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary is going to start gettin' busy with birds as Summer ends.

I got up early this morning and headed to our local lake before work to catch sunrise. My main goal was to test out my 100-400GM but when the sky started to light up, I quickly switched over to my 16-35GM and captured this.

I shot this image before sunrise this morning at 400mm on my 100-400 GM. These are some of the most iconic buildings in SATX. The beautiful Roman Catholic church in the foreground is called the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Little Flower, which opened in 1931. The tower in the back is the famous Tower of the Americas that stands 750 ft. The latest addition to the skyline is the Frost Bank Tower on the left.

13 seconds at f8 and ISO 100

No, I'm good with the R3 for a while. I still have less than 5000 clicks on it and I don't really want to deal with larger files at this point.
