It's not about money it's about what I have and should bring tomorrow in what combination.

Could be the lens quality, 30mp at 1.6 is demanding. With this in mind the M6II would probably be better on the better 400 2.8 and not the zoom.

As much as I can have. Don't know how far that bird will be away.

I got the eyepiece. :)

Odd that the crop sensor did not produce more details. Was it equal or worse?

R5 definitely has the superior AF. I'm going to take both anyway. Got 2 lenses to decide where to put. I'm thinking M6II with the EF 100-400 small, flexible and ready in the hand. And the R5 with ...

Plan is to go bird watching. But what camera will give me the best range and details out of the available 400mm lens?

I read those have a low quality plastic lens that distorts the image.

I'm not looking for a rigid specialized case as it's entirely possible I won't own the M6 till the next chance to use it underwater, more a flexible bag with a glass lens like the Ewa Marine ones. ...

Yes, but in theory xraw should be the computational raw, but I don't really trust it.

You should tell Samsung, xraw is very inconsistent, sometimes it even seems like just a jpg in a dng container.

That's what ExpertRAW does.

12MP Mode, 50MP is probably going to loose dynamic range cause of the unbinned pixels.

ExpertRAW is questionable at best.

For a clean, real photo use raw in the stock apps Pro Mode. ExpertRAW can even remove details and can flatten faces by doing them in just one color in the background. This app is heavily processing ...

No at base ISO, downscaled to 12 MP the 200MP gives the cleanest most detailed photo, followed by the 50MP which has advantages as you can get it as unprocessed raw file, but looses a few details ...

In manual for some dumb reason yes, in auto it gets down to 10.

More, ExpertRAW gives the full Auto Mode treatment, multiframe composing, face editing, over sharpening.

If you think there is relevant information in that video post the time code. I won't spend 11 minutes looking for something that according to chapter descriptions isn't even there.

First: please don't use ExpertRAW, those files are heavily processed already. Use the clean raw from the stock app. Second: Iso matters, what's the ISO of the phones shot? Those high-res modes are ...
