I love this lens. I'm not a serious wildlife photographer, so I can't justify buying something big, heavy, and expensive in this range. But the RF 100-400 is so small, light, and cheap, that it's pretty much a no-brainer to get it. Here's one I took yesterday, trying it out on my new R6II:

And with the 1.4X extender on the R7:

It's plenty sharp enough for my purposes. It's also a pretty good outdoor sports lens.
