Sigma 500 is a much better lens than 200-600. But sometimes flexibility becomes more important than quality.

@@vhsstudios365Tried it, returned it… 15 fps on an A1 just isn’t enough, and it’s not sharper than my 200-600 cropped in, neither is the bokeh better.

FPS part we do agree. But sharpness and bokeh, i suspect it could be something to do with the copy of 500 you got. Because we compared it with 3 copies of 200-600, and 500 was better in IQ.

We haven’t tried that combo. But 100-400 being such an awesome lens, it would be great if used standalone. It would give good results with 1.4 TC as well. But we are sceptical about the results with 2x TC

@@vhsstudios365 thank you sir!

Yes that’s correct

Welcome 😍

Both are excellent cameras I would say. If you are already into the Nikon system, you better look at Z8 as it will be much easier for you and no transition. You can also use Nikon lenses with Z mount adapters and so on. If you are in a canon system, it’s worth looking at R5. Having said that Canon R5 is a 4-year-old camera and there is a new version of it expected sometime this year and Nikon Z8 is a much newer camera. Price-wise also there is a huge difference and Z8 will cost you much higher than R5. So it comes down to a personal choice in the end. Technically both of them are excellent equipment to work with. Kindly let me know if you have any specific questions and we can answer them for you.

Glad you enjoyed it

Could you please share which camera model do you want use with this lens?

@@vhsstudios365 canon R6 mk.2

@harshad6489 The RF200-800mm lens paired with the R6M2 handles subject detection or tracking effortlessly. However, in dense forests, lighting can be insufficient, possibly requiring higher ISO settings. Considering the lens's aperture of F9 at 800mm, there will be some limitations to be acknowledged when you compare this lens with a prime lens with a wider aperture like f4 or f2.8 in those shallow lighting situations.

@@vhsstudios365 thank you for the response sir. So should I go for this lens as I want to capture not only birds but also mammals mounted on R6 mk.2?

@harshad6489 There isn't a one-size-fits-all lens for every situation. Considering your interests in both birding and photographing mammals, have you explored the RF100-500mm lens? Opting for the 100-500mm range offers more versatility. With mammals potentially closer, the minimum 200mm focal length on the 200-800mm lens might be excessive. The 100mm starting point on the 100-500mm lens could give you more options in such scenarios if you are ok with the 500mm on the other end. It might be beneficial to compare both lenses before making a decision.

Yeah.. they are very quick and can jump any side

It’s Mount Ararat and it’s part of Armenia. You can visit this place!

@@vhsstudios365 how long is the drive from Yerevan ? And is worth

You should be able to reach in 2-3 hours time depending on the weather. During slow time, it took us around 4 hours as we had to take multiple stops in between.

Thank you bro.. we are planning another trip during autumn.. will contact you 🤝

That's awesome to hear that you're enjoying using the RF 200-800m lens with your R6! It's always satisfying when a gear exceeds expectations.

Thank you!

Overall the Canon R3 and 200-800” is a good powerful combination due to its faster auto focus system and 24MP sensor. It’s a good combo for both videos and stills. Do you want to know anything in particular ?

We haven’t done a side by side comparison of these combos. But from what we know about R7, Though the resolution will be higher with R7 + 100-500, the image quality will be superior on R6ii + 200-800.

If you are referring to LRK, then it was not that bad like we anticipated. But could be because of the time of the year we visited.

Great video and footage

We have tested z8 with 180-600 but with the previous firmware. Unfortunately the af performance especially in stills was not at all comparable to R6ii. Yes 200-800 is a slower lens but the awesome low light performance of R6ii kinda compensate for that. Though 180-600 starts at 6.3 at the longer end, it’s considerably softer wide open @ 600, and has to stop down at least 2/3 stops or even 1 stop to make it acceptably sharp. Could be a limitation of internal zoom lens design. Meanwhile 200-800 is not perfect either. It’s pumping action is obvious. Other things to factor in are the price and the weight of the combo. Z8 + 180-600 is a much expensive and heavier combo. Last but not least, Z8 is one of the most power hungry device we used and can drain its standard battery within no time. Being said that Z8’s image quality is amazing, so as its image stabilisation. Its video implementation and codecs are one of the best available in the market.

👍

Thank you 🙂. It works well with small birds and low light conditions. Based on what we observed about this combo, it can be used in regions like western ghats. The AF will surely track, you may have to push the iso for deep canopy situations. But it will be well managed with the low light performance of this camera, though it may require some help from the noise reduction in some cases.

@@vhsstudios365 thanks. It's really helpful. I look forward to more videos of this combo. Meanwhile I am waiting for my 200-800 🙂

Welcome. And congratulations on your new purchase.

Thank you!

Thank you, Ludo!

You're most welcome! We are truly glad that you enjoyed the video. Indeed, Gujarat's rich biodiversity never fails to amaze us, and capturing its beauty with this camera and lens combination has been truly rewarding. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement!. It's always heartening to know that the effort invested in creating these videos are appreciated and can serve as a source of inspiration.

Though the lens works perfectly fine with Canon R5, i would say a more appropriate combination is with R6ii due to its more advanced AF and better low light and high iso performance.

@@vhsstudios365how different are the AF animal/bird systems between the R5 and R6II? Are there differences in video AF when tracking birds?

R6ii being a newer camera it has better subject detection and overall AF, it works almost similar to the flagship R3. Though R5 doesn’t have that many bells and whistles like the newer R6ii. It still tracks birds in photos and videos. If we try to nitpick to see the real difference, the subject/ eye detection on R5 works in wide area af only. Choosing any other AF area will disable the subject/eye detection. In R6ii subject/eye detection can be enabled in any modes. Which could be helpful in certain complex scenarios. By using a touch focus or assigning a custom button you can make a workaround for this in R5. R5 still has one of the best subject detection and tracking out there despite the fact that its an old camera. But R6ii can do the job with less intervention from the photographer.

@@vhsstudios365 Thanks for the pointers. However, why I was asking is because I intend to shoot small birds with whichever combo I go for. In that case, I was hoping that the 45 MP of the R5 would have more details on the bird even after a huge crop. However, the AF is also an important consideration and so is the high ISO performance. In the end, I might go for the R6 Mark II due to those reasons, esp. since I mostly shoot in a rain forest.

Considering F9 being the widest aperture at 800mm, a lower MP camera like R6ii would be a better pair for 200-800, especially when you plan to shoot in areas with challenging light conditions. If you are not looking particularly for that higher MP or 8k videos. R6ii would be a better pair for 200-800. We have tested this lens on R5, R6ii and R3. And it performed best with R6ii even slightly better than on R3. There is another video in our channel which is a 200-800 field review, all the footages in that are shot with R5. That could give some more insights i believe. CANON RF 200 800 - A BIRD PHOTOGRAPHERS DREAM LENS FROM CANON? #canon #rflens ruclips.net/video/6cVukk-jxhU/видео.html
