My point is that people are already using what amount to f/11 telephotos, but because the number says 5.6 or 8, they don't think of it that way.
With my 6D2 I find that for a lot of subject matter and a lot of purposes, ISO 3200 is just fine. Maybe if National Geographic were paying me big bucks, then I'd need a faster lens. But for posting on the web or printing on paper up to 13" x 19" without a lot of cropping, that level of ISO should usually be fine. I just wouldn't come here to brag about my 100% crops. I don't do any wildlife shooting other than birds at the feeders next door. (The deer duck into the woods behind my house if I point anything at them.) So I can't really speak from experience. And I don't have an R-series camera or plans to get one anyway. But I'd think 1/2000 sec. in bright light should work OK for a lot of critters. And shouldn't the sensors on the new R cameras be better than the one in my 6D2?
