CANON R6 mark2 … ISO40000, ISO10000, ISO160000, ISO20000 … another reason to match RF200800 …

few close friends asking to work out new CANON RF200800mm lens with few camera … as the lens balance between weight, and light so it is F9 at 800mm and make many of us worry, how it perform in Rainforest.

Before I have the lens and other camera to work on, I already comment to them it work well with CANON R3 !!! but it is expensive camera with this lens … and it may not work really balance Investment-Performance .. than I am highly recommend to many CANON R6mark2 with really good ISO performance, AF performance

– another bird suppose to hope come to feeding station but not, but we managed to heard and found the bird. Again this is another reason setup customize button for my R3 which can shoot in complex environment (just like this) point the focus points (I using 5 point) on to any part of the bird and eye will be lock focus ..very useful and suitable for people like shooting wildbird in move

– 我们以为可以在喂食点看到,可是等了一个早上都没声音。我们没等,在上山路中听到也蛮容易找到(有神器嘛)。还有这是个好教材,我的CANON R3, 为了快速拍到懂得鸟通常都是开全福/中部区域对焦(鸟眼)可是在这种情况是应该很难找到的(有时也可以)。可是我选了其中一个钮,放了5点对焦(鸟眼)。通常找不到后,我很快用这个对焦钮碰鸟的任何一个部位。立刻就可以找到鸟眼了。。真的很好用!

– another example to show .. my picture is different ? I am sure many say, why so bad quality, not an open picture, bla bla … but do you know ? most of my situation  … the bird is in the forest, I need to make sure my guests have a view of it and gave them good angle than only my turn to look for “leftover” angle to have a photo … no complaint ahhhhh …give a like please haha

– and normally we see it mean we need to look for other bird soon .. not stay there waiting ..

– 这是我要讲2件事的一张照片,1. 热成像仪 (迟点才讲,等我有空吧)

2. 我的照片,我拍的90%照片都是与带客人时拍的。70%是观鸟,我要先让客人们看到或给他们最好角度。。。。yes yes 后才可以再找角度拍。所以照片都不锐,角度不好。。。哈哈,下次不要投诉啦。。你试试就知道,我的照片都得来不易的。拿着单筒+脚架,背相机一天不行10000-20000步。来个个赞吧。。。还有,通常看到后我们就不会再找这鸟+多看。我也不会有多时间拍。

– while ours’ trip to Sri Lanka, so much rain while we planning to go out for more birds on day 2 but rain just too heavy for us. But it is glad that Sri Lanka is a place almost any where possible to birding. (ecxcept the forest reserve, bird really scared around) Included the garden of hotel, we got few good birds just at lobby of the hotel even raining

– very cute, beautiful endemic

– 斯里兰卡可爱,小的特有种。

– 我们在斯里兰卡时,雨量蛮多。可是蛮好是这列几乎是没地方都有鸟(除了国家公园反而鸟非常少)。 第二天,在下午我们打算出去观鸟是。雨下很大,可是还好在公园还是蛮多鸟让我们看看。这鸟就在公园看到,拍到。

– a bird that sight by local village and brought us there, it was so far away (~60-80m) and so dark .. luckily my gear allow me lock the eye of the bird fast and accurate 😀

– 村里的人带我们去,这么远+鸟还是很害羞!还要很暗。

这鸟应该蛮普通。

– while we walking on the trail for Ground Cuckoo, this bird always infront us but keep a distance. We didn’t spent too much time for it as rushing for the main target

– 当我们赶去看地鹃的时候,这鸟一只就在我们前面。可是我们没太理会这鸟。大家心情都在地鹃哪了。

First Full frame Zoom 800mm – RF200-800mm f6.3-9 IS USM – Low Light concern [update 20231231]

Low light … is always happen Rainforest here … think most the people consider this lens will have same thoughts

1. price – OK .. cheaper better la …

2. 800mm zoom at 2kg .. Good focal length + weight

3. F9 at 800mm !!!! what F9 !!! so dark how !

4. Image quality how ? …. all manufacturers lens dont think any still be complaint about sharpness .. but I really hope we know sharpness and clarity

5. Non L .. weather seal HOW !

6. Non L .. AF how !!!

 

let’s me share my experience over last 2 weeks fully use at cold weather, light rain (7C-15C) at Taiwan and raining, muddy .. dark environment at West Sumatra

1. price – OK .. cheaper better la …

Nothing to complaint for the price .. RRP RM9499

 

2. 800mm zoom at 2kg .. Good focal length + weight

Long is good but it have to come with some compensation … longer focal length mean more shutter speed require —> higher ISO

so please do not complain why why why last time 150600 or 200600 or any 500mm I can shoot 1/100 but now cannot get sharp picture ..

2KG is good for me to handle almost whole day with tripod or without tripod .. but may not for all  … so go have a try … for me the “length” is the complaint it is clumsy to carry around !!!! but it is 200-800mm what are you expect ? 10cm !!!

 

3. F9 at 800mm !!!! what F9 !!! so dark how !

Yes .. it is dark .. so have to accept high ISO or stable tripod+head require

for actual field experience

HANDHELD .. with R3 … I am good with 1/160s with >50% success hit rate

Travel tripod and Gitzo 2-Way Fluid Head GHF2W … with R3 … I am good with 1/30 with >50% success hit rate

#Gitzo1WayFluidHeadGHF2W

so what’s our worry !!!!

F9 Handheld … even 1/160 normally in Rainforest most of the time I am shooting ISO6400-16000 !!!! so be ready

F9 Travel Tripod and Fluidhead … even 1/30 normally in Rainforest most of the time I am shooting ISO1600-8000 !!!!

*** so those shooting with R7 .. be ready to have even higher ISO as you need faster shutter speed for both “longer focal Length” + “high megapixel”

 

4. Image quality how ? …. all manufacturers lens dont think any still be complaint about sharpness .. but I really hope we know sharpness and clarity

so far, I dont have any complaint can view the full jpeg here

First Full frame Zoom 800mm – RF200-800mm f6.3-9 IS USM – real field test .. (continue updating 20231221)

 

5. Non L .. weather seal HOW !

it work well for last 2 week, nothing happen so far even shooting under the rain and walking in the Rainforest heavy rain (power off)

*** need to update fogging concern .. experience few times when I am shooting at humid and cold (~10C) the front-external got fog for 2-3 occasions …

 

6. Non L .. AF how !!!

Non L .. cheaper la … AF definate fast and acceptable … Animal detection and eye focus work well if exposure is set correctly

But it is definite slower than RF100500, RF400mmF2.8 + TC, RF600mmF4 with tc
