Other Lens or R7

[MrSparks999]

Hi all

Looking to get the RF200-800 when i can (no stock anywhere). However i had a thought, perhaps to get an R7 and use my RF100-500. This options would certainly be cheaper, and with the cropped sensor i would get the 800mm but wondered if anyone had experience of this or thoughts. Currently using the R6 MKii, so R7 would be second body.

Thanks in Advance

also does anyone have experience of using the 1.4 extender on the R7 Rf100-500 set up?

I do. I have shot quite a bit with it. BIF is pretty challenging but my keeper rate goes way down. A full zoom and the math you are looking at 1120mm.

I made a decision this year to stop using the 1.4 TC with that combo and I get 800mm. I will use it on my R6II which puts it at 700mm. It works very well with a FF.
