Thanks, Lance. Agree on all points. We want to up the game with a full frame camera and high IQ lens.

Thank you John for your input.

Hi John Crowe, Thank you for your post. Please let me know how you feel the image quality, autofocus accuracy and low light performance compare between the 5DSR and D850. I would need to rule out ...

Hi Lance, Thank you for your reply. I am very happy with the Bighorn photo.  However there are small animals and birds that I have a hard time getting clear pictures of that are further away, or in ...

Thank you Lehill for the information about the 100-400 lens as compared to my present bridge camera. However, I want to improve image quality. The D850 with a 300mm f4 certainly will do that, would ...

Thank you for the suggestion, John. I have thought about the teleconverter on the 300 f4 so I will put it into the equation. The Nikkor 80-400 is a good suggestion, however at a little over 3 ...

My wife and I are currently shooting with a Sony Mark 10 IV and Panasonic FZ 1000. While we can get some great shots in close range such as the Bighorn Sheep shot yesterday below, we lose image ...

The Nikon D500 with 100-500mm and the Sony A9 with the 200-600 mm proved to be too heavy to be enjoyable for both my wife and I. Additionally, the small aperture did not allow us to shoot in very ...

Thank you for all the great recommendations. After researching them all I decided to work with these 2 cameras on a trial basis: Sony A9 with a 200-600 and Nikon D500 with a 100-500. Will keep our ...

Thank you for your insight.  It's great to find something that works for you!

There are some very knowledgeable and helpful people on the forum.  Please tell me what camera and lens you bought.

Thank you Bill.  Your work is very nice.

If you would, please tell me what you shoot with. Is it the D500 with the 200-500mm?  Thanks, Bill.

Absolutely.  Thank you.

Thank you.  Yes, I am going to wait.

I think the suggestion was made as I mentioned the 200-600 is too heavy for either of us to handhold to get BIF.  There doesn't seem to be a camera solution for us at this time, not one that we ...

A7RIV was suggested by B&H in conjunction with a 100-400 for BIF.  Reasoning being 61 megapixels gives you lots of room to crop and still have excellent IQ.  Please let me know your thoughts on this.

Would this apply to the Ar7iii as well - no real time tracking?

How would you compare the image quality of the D500 to the A7RIV?  Thank you.
