For that money, this definitely is an amazing kit for beginners.

Thank you! So happy to see a recent video covering this topic. For bird photography I imagine tracking AF is a must!

Happy to hear that the video was helpful

I bought this combo 6 months ago as my first wildlife/bird equipment and cannot be more satisfied with the results, given how much it has costed. I easily carry it on 10km birding sessions, and even carried it on a couple of 25km ones! About all technical characteristics, advantages and downsides, I can only agree with Fabian and confirm literally all what he said in the video.

Thank you for this! I purchased one today after seeing this video. It should be a great lens to go with my R10 so I can start some amateur wildlife photography.

I have this combo which supplements my R5 with 100-500. I use the R10 when traveling mainly in Spain. I love the portability of the smaller kit and it performs much like the R5 in many ways. I do notice I have to do more post processing manipulation to achieve what I want but it is certainly worth it.

❤ Thank you for showing me the way! Great!! DxO PureRAW 3 is fantastic! Now aperture f8.0 on a Canon RF 100-400mm lens is not a big problem. I have a Canon R10 body and was choosing between Canon RF 100-400mm, Sigma 100-400mm, Tamron 100-400mm and Tamron 18-400mm. I think that a native lens is the best solution for various reasons: 1) better compatibility with the camera 2) dimensions, weight, no adapter needed 3) the motor is fast, quiet and accurate 4) no focus breathing 5) and lastly: information from your great video

Thank you for making this great video. I have the same setup but I'm considering to upgrade to the R7, and offcourse I would also like to try the 1.4x and knowing that I may be disappointed. Would the 1.4x perform better with the R7?

@FabianFoppNaturephotography

7 ай бұрын

Thanks! Hmm, I personally would not buy the 1.4x with any aps-c camera and the RF100-400. rather save the money to buy the RF100-500 L at some point

I use my R7 with the RF100-500, mostly for birds, and I am extremely happy with this setup. I also struggled over the choice between adding the 1.4x TC vs the 800mm F11 prime, which are very similar in reach (700 vs 800 mm) and maximum aperture (F10 vs F11). I had the opportunity to compare and was pleasantly surprised by the IQ and AF performance with the TC, though this may be a function of the R7 sensor (32MP) and optical quality in the RF100-500 ie the same may not be true with the R10/RF100-400.

Fantastic review, thank you 😊 Now Subscribed 👍🏻

I have a RF100-400mm and R6, so I wonder if it worths to buy a R10 to get a longer focal length. Have you tested the AF tracing smaller flying birds? Thank you!

@FabianFoppNaturephotography

6 ай бұрын

If you need to crop a lot, then it could be an option. But the AF of the R6 and R5 is generally more consistent than the R10. Maybe save for a 100-500 to pair with your R6? 😊

Hi Fabian, I bought r10 last year I was searching for wildlife lense. Thank you for you video. It's great. Can you suggest 1.4x or 2x converter. What effect will it do to image. 1.4x will give 560 on this lense. What do you think? Love from India❤

Hi,will the Rf800 be good with Canon R10?

@FabianFoppNaturephotography

Ай бұрын

In general it should work well and give you a lot of reach. Just keep in mind that the ISO will go up if it gets a bit darker

I'd be wary of the FPS numbers Canon are throwing around, they claimed the R7 could shoot 30fps but at those speeds the AF algorithm struggles to keep up and you lose a lot of images. The best you can get is 15 fps and even then I had issues. I'd also mention the fact that the R10 and RF 100-400 isn't weather sealed.

@FabianFoppNaturephotography

Ай бұрын

Yes, unfortunately this holds true for many other cameras of the „lower“ segment where the AF can be limiting. You are right about the weather sealing, but I don’t know many beginner bird photographers that care too much about that

What about the r50???

@FabianFoppNaturephotography

Smaller buffer, no joystick and (at least where I live) not much cheaper. I would definitely go for the R10

Those photos are a clear example of why you should date your body cameras and marry your lenses... Man, they can't look that professional, I just bought R10 as my 1st camera for 700$ and wasn't hoping that much, to be honest....

@@FabianFoppNaturephotography everything is in the manual of the camera. For someone switching from DSRL to mirrorless - the lack of a button to switch from the EVF to LCD - its a pain. And also, the sensor that is detecting if smth is close to the evf is also working on its own rules when the camera is strapped to "side" (like a mail bag). Real world points - no a word about that in these videos. But videos based on the manual - plenty.
