Re: Canon R7 or R8 for Bird Photography

I use R7 and I'm happy with it. R8 is an interesting camera. Yeah with mechanical and efc it has 6 fps but wih ec it has 40 fps like r6 ii. If you have 400 mm reach, crop sensor would be better.  On bird photography we don't know much about the af performance of the r8 but I think it would have slightly better af. Jared polin posted a video about testing r8 af in a basketball game and it look amazing.

R8 lacks better battery, handling, ibis and dual card slots.
