YES..... if you get a stellar copy.
but most of the 200-600 copy have similar of sharpness as 100-400mm.
also, mind you canon R5 has light OLPF so it would reduce image sharpness a little bit . while equivalent sony camera eg A7RIII or A1 don't.
here 200-600 and 100-500 at f/7.1

similar sharpness with 100-500 perform a bit better in the corner
Not saying either lens is better than another but unless they are shot on the exact same body (which isn’t possible) it will never be an actuate apples to apples comparison as the sensor does play a factor in this.
true, if 2 lenses are used on 2 different cameras (2 different brands), 2 different iso setup and 2 different setup on the lenses, then i wouldn't call it a fair test or one lens is better than the other. however, lens IQ is so close among the 3 major brands that it is like splitting hair.
to me, canon EF 100-400 is the standard for quality and the photos it produces--i haven't seen another tele zoom as versatile/hi iq and producing the best quality bokeh and mfd as this lens anywhere, so far.

Lighter would be nice, and an extra 100mm would be nice, but that EF 100-400 mk2 is a spectacular lens, and it is built like a tank. I am confident that if anyone ever tries to take it away from me, I will be able to beat them to death with it, and continue shooting.
