They work very well together. Af is fast and accurate. Including the eye detect. Image quality is very good. The focal length equivalent at the long end is 560mm. Only drawback is the f8 aperture at the long end, but the r6 handles higher iso well. I use the combo often.

Thank you. I would like to ask if you crop the photos at 560mm? Will the internal crop mode further complement the teleconverter to get a closer shot of the animal or is it better for me to crop it in post? I'm not really sure if there are any different between using the crop mode and cropping in post.

Cropping in camera just means you are using fewer pixels to begin with. Cropping in post mean you use all the pixels to start with and then you decide what goes.

I see. Thanks for the explanation.
