Hi,

Would like to get a R5, but don't really have the budget for it. 🤣I would like to ask if anyone had used the EOS R6 with the EF 100-400mm II and TC EF 1.4x III for wildlife before. May I know how is the result? Will this combination be long enough for most shot?

I use that lens and converter on the R7 and it works really well. I’ve not tried it on an R6 but a friend uses that setup. Everything works well but he does feel he lacks a tiny bit in how much he can crop compared to the R7. The quality is excellent though and I often view his shots with envy.

May I ask how much can your friend crop before it become unusable? Thanks.

I would have to ask him. His shots are really good but tend to have the subject framed very differently to me when we have been side by side shooting the same subject.

I see. Sounds interesting. Is it okay for you to share some sample photos? Thank you.
