Some of these - I'd say yes OK and as expected.

So the R7 is in effect already a 1.4X TC over a 7D or 7DII - which the 100-400 when it came out was designed for. So in effect 1.4X TC on the R7 is like a 2X on the 7D - and the rule then was only the best prime lenses were really worth it with 2X TC's.

You are also at ISO 640-800 - so at pixel level will see some noise at 100% on the R7. Take the sharpest ones - put through DXO deep prime XD with lens sharpness off - then try topaz sharpen AI to sharpen up and some of these will then likely look OK.

I never bother with the 1.4X TC on the EF100-400 with the M6II, R10 or R7. Not worth it.
