R7 and RF 600 f11
A friend had rented the 800mm f/11 and I tried it on my R5 for a few hundred bird photos in Alaska last summer. I was not happy with it. The long focal length made subject acquisition difficult for birds on the ground or in the water -- and almost impossible for birds in flight. No matter what shutter speed I used, I never got what I thought were sharp images. My best luck was with birds along the shore or swimming in the water. I really don't have many suggestions to make about how to get better images with your lens. The ones you shared are as good as any that I got. (If you're not happy, is there any chance you can return the lens?)
