An alternative option to consider would be to buy the 800mm f11 instead of the 1.4TC as the prices may be similar depending on source and if you want longer then the 2xTC

Whilst I have no experience using a R5 as I use a R3 and both TCs work really well can and lock on and track drinking swifts and swallows in flight producing sequences in focus, that said, the 100-500 is the only lens I have adjusted focal length for in order to open up the aperture

I find that the 2XTC usually requires one more notch of sharpening in DPP4 than the lens native or with 1.4
