Here's more information about people using more than 200mm FL for their M mirrorless cameras.

For me the practical thing to do, is just to keep using my Canon DSLR camera with the Tamron 150-600mm lens. But it does weigh a lot. It's doable when a person cradles it like a baby, but with any type of disability that you describe that is painful for you, then I would imagine it would be difficult.

When I was taking pictures of birds with the Canon 55-250mm lens, I learned how to stay perfectly still near the bird feeder. One time I sat down on a log and after about 15 minutes the birds came close and I got incredibly good pictures without having that "monster" Tamron telephoto lens. Other options with smaller telephoto lenses is to make or buy a bird screen, like one that completely covers you like a tent. Check on-line for that option. Then you will earn bragging rights for these super good photos with the shorter focal length telephoto lens.

we live in a condo complex, so no feeder plus no way to stop others from disturbing the birds. they're quite skittish here, and it often took 600mm or more to get them - obviously i've experimented with megazooms like the canon SX50, nikon P610 and P900 (which is now too much camera for me to hold).

maybe i'll rent a T7i or T8i and see how that works out.

what do you think of the SL3? it's lighter, always a plus for me.

i love shooting sea birds - pelicans, seagulls, egrets, herons, cormorants,msand pipers, etc - in flight or not. i'm not the best at it, but i love doing it and i love the pics.  plus sea birds around here often stay close enough for 250mm (or even 210mm) to sometimes be enough, and they're just so cool!

the one above could use some cropping, but still...
