  Wow! In my head, I was thinking strongly how to have a solution for handling my Z9 with 500PF ergonomically as last weekend I spent 2 days wandering in the woods and swamps to photography birds. I set up my gears on the Benron tripod and put it on my shoulder like you demonstrated in the first part of your video. Then when I was home, I thought to find something like a hammock or pouch to hang my gears like the second part of your video but it was not yet solved out until this morning I opened YT and found your channel. What an coincidence or Google read my mind. Lol

  APS-C + Speedbooster + 50mm F/1.8 lens is equivalent to like F/1.2-F/1.3 56.8mm full frame (canon) and it will perform equivalent if not better a very expensive full frame body like the R5 with the same lens in low light due to F/1.2 being so much brighter than F/1.8 and so much cheaper. MFT will have it's advantages in nice daylighth situations for wildlife due to more reach. However I find the APS-C sensor size the best all rounder in both daylight and night time with a speedbooster. It's a much cheaper setup. I have a metabones 0.71 booster and with all my lenses (Sigma 150-600 C / Canon 70-300 F/4-5.6 IS 2 Nano USM / Canon EF 50mm F/1.8) they're all sharp at wide open and there's not much chromatic abberation or distortion and autofocus speed. I find no difference what so ever with the speedbooster attached or not. So I prefer APS-C for the best price/performance. And If I some day get crazy enough for night time photography, I'd probably get a medium format camera rather than a full frame. And if I get crazy enough for more reach, I'd crop the image instead of getting a MFT. So there are little to no advantages over an MFT body in my opinion other than being cheaper and a bit lighter. But I'm super happy with my R7 so I'll probably not get a medium format or full frame body anytime soon and never a MFT body.

  My current camera only has RAW but I know I'll switch to CRAW when I upgrade. Storage is expensive and burst rate buffer is important for wildlife. There is a difference if you're screwing the exposure by more than 2 stops. Other than that, for well exposed images: zero difference.

  ...you bought the 100-400mm just for this video ?...nice. Well, the 100-400mm is my favourite lens for daily use in and around the Canadian Rocky Mountains. I once rented the 100-500L and in my opinion it's not worth the extra enormous amount of money. The 100-400mm is a great and very versatile lens, which I highly recommend....

  Thanks for the comparison. I feel that one of the most important differences is the background softness. The 600mm was softer, which really helps diffuse background distractions and just give a lovely creamy effect at F4. The 500mm was amazing, but the 600mm really struck a home-run here. Both super impressive lenses. I'm fortunate to own the 600mm and feel I made the right choice..Very good detailed comparison. Thank you.

  For Sigma 60-600mm DG HSM I use cotton carrier harness. But I doubt I'd be able to use it for my 500mm f4 +TC setup. I use my biggest setup almost exclusively when I just arrive somewhere, set up for some time and wait. For changing position by up to several hundret meters I would use my monopod as a counterbalance just like you used your tripod. But for such a case of +/- stationary circumstances somewhere far from home I would just use a car. Or if you need to hike to a specific location, I would use dedicated backpack like Lowepro lens trekker 600 AW II. I don't find such a lens a viable option for walkaround shooting.

  I have never used camuflash coating of my lenses, and have had white lenses since the nlnties. Never have a bird or a deer been spoked! It's waving around with the lens that sceards the animals. I always mowe the lens slowly. And by the way, Fotographing small birds with camu clothes is no good. I use bright shiny yellow jacket, and mowe very slowly towards the birds. Than they have controll where I am, and can get really close to them. However, waterbirds is different. Than I use camoclotes. So I have done in 55 years, and it works!

  @@FabianFoppNaturephotography I'm with you on the viewfinder, but i do live in a rainforest and i do sometimes have a go at a forest bird, and it's really challenging for anything other than 'on stick'. Slowly learning to shoot with both eyes open, which may help. Added difficulty however is that low light (in dense forest) means fast glass, and fast glass is only fast until you have to move it - another problem for the tracking small and agile birds. Good fun though, eh. Cheers.

  I ordered the lens carrier after watching your video from last year. At first it seems to be a fantastic idea to carry my 600mm around. In the end my back gets quite painfull after a medium/long walk. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong with it but I went back to my trusty monopod + wimberley MH-100 head. I tried a lot of thing but for me nothing beat this setup for lightweight/long hikes. I can do 4-5 hours hikes with it without any pain or fatigue it's awesome. :) For lens cap check out Zemlin. Very good stuff! Also I was quite interested in the roland pro coat.. Until you showed how to unviel the buttons.... xD Velcro? Really guys?.. ^^'

  It replaced the 500mmPF lens on my Z9. the 180-600mm is my daily workhorse, my subjects consist of birds, snakes and other wildlife. The flexibility to go from 600mm when shooting birds to 180mm when switching to rattlesnakes, that's worth the loss of "some" sharpness. I do miss the weight of the 500mmPF though. The 180-600mm is heavy with the Z9. I've regretted leaving it behind when I'm birding and find the coolest, unplanned snakes, resting and waiting for me to take my time for the photo. It never fails, when you least expect it, that's when you aren't prepared...

I use the zoom mostly because it is so versatile. The 500 is great - but it has more specific application. With the speedbooster I have a 70-300 F4 zoom and 350mm F2.8 on a CF body! And they work well with TC too. One day I’ll get RF glass, but what I have now is top quality and very versatile. I’m in no rush

  I have the R7 and use the original EF 500F4 is and the EF100-400L ii with it. There is no difference in quality as far as I can tell. But F4 and 500mm is not possible with the zoom so I need the big lens sometimes. I also use the Metabones speedbooster 0.71x and the 1.4x iii TC with both. That gives me an effective 550mm F2.8 lens with F4 DOF and an effective 110mm-440mm F4 zoom with F5.6 DOF with the speedbooster! I find the zoom a very useful lens.

It happens occasionally to me in the tropics, it sometimes happens after an hour or so in the morning, so it's not a sudden change ie going from aircon to outside.

  I live in the Tropics and humidity and temperature gradients are always a problem. At high humidity levels even bringing a lens into the slightly hotter outside after a night in a house without AC will result in some condensation. I will sometimes put my camera and lenses in sealed plastic bags with the air squeezed out so they warm up without being in the humid warm air. It's the opposite of skiing in your country, coming into the warm interior of a hut on the slopes from minus 5 has the same effect, leave your gear in sealed off bags.. For clothes in the tropics in the humid season, get the hotel to put them in the tumble drier. Cotton especially never dries quickly. Anyway some nice shoreline images today, thanks for uploading.

The R5 is a 45 megapixel camera and i also assume the lens quality of the 600mm should be better. As i buyer i would be very interested in a comparison not on thecnical specs but more on value for money. So a comparison with a R6 (also 20mb) and and a RF 100-500. That would give me an insight of what would be best for me regarding the amount of money i can spend. Would like to see such a comparison……. 😇 Nevertheless thanks for the work you did on this issue.
