  • Heather & I used my Canon EOS R6 Mark II Camera and RF 100-500 Zoom Lens to make bird photos on the fourth & fifth days of our Canada Honeymoon trip. All of these photos were made at Moraine Lake Lodge or the closed road that leads to the lodge. Every bird we photographed was a lifer for us.

    Wow, Heather’s shot of the Canada Jay is outstanding, especially with the detail in the berries! The sharpness at 472mm is impressive, and it’s amazing she captured it from the car window. Both of you really nailed some lifers on this trip-Heather’s Red Squirrel shot is also adorable. Great work, both of you!

    Canada Jay better known as the Camp Robber Jay! I lived in the Pacific Northwest for many years and backcountry hiking and camping was the primary summer activity. The jays would come right up and steal food off your plate as it was on your lap. You needed to swat them away just like the bugs. I have never seen bolder birds...or perhaps they had never had pancakes as good as mine...hahaha!

    Hi Phil which lens do you prefer to use on the R7, 100-500 or 200-800? I saw your comparison a while back and there was very little difference between your 200-800 shots and Heathers 100-500 shots. I currently have 100-400is ii and want to upgrade.

      I shoot the R5 100-500. The lens is amazing and it’s what keeps me in the Canon family at the moment. It is light, easy to carry and handhold. It’s weather sealed and sharp wide open. It also shoots macro type shots with its minimum focus distance and magnification. I’m anxiously waiting for the R7ii to try it on this lens! I have the 1.4 tc, but rarely put it on as I don’t love the weight, or the fact that you can’t pull back to 100. It’s a physical design flaw. The 200-800 would be too heavy for a walk around lens for me with none of the upside of my 100-500. I can only afford 1, so I’m staying with the 100-500! Good luck!
