    How is 400 f8 too short for wildlife on full-frame?

    Could this be a 35mm they pair with the new possible retro R8?

    I am able to make a similar comment. Specifically, from 'Far': I too find the camera underperforming in autofocus after the last...

    Clearly, the advantage of the MFT 2x crop factor comes into play if you crop all, or most of your images, as is the case with me...

    I ended up flipping my R5 last month and I swapped it out for a new R6iii, to compliment my R6ii. I’m super happy with both cameras and...

    400mm F8 is too short for wildlife on full frame and too dark on APS-C. Even an updated 400 5.6 would make more sense.

    I am not at all concerned! Not only because I hate such mass-meetings. This beer-wine-food orgy took place in the Haut-Rhin region...

    I own both an R6-2 (24MP) and an R7 (32MP) and use them for different things. As I stated previously, the R7 has the same pixel size as...

    As I thought, you're labouring under something of an old fallacy (see Neuro's tireless reply above). But even if it's still partially...

    You would be able to get smaller and lighter lenses in focal lengths from ultrawide to short telephoto. For long telephoto lenses...

    Shooting an R7 is functionally equivalent to shooting with an 83MP FF camera and FF lens, then cropping the image in post processing...
