I really hope I have time to share same image captured with the RF200-800mm direct compare to RF100-500mm L + Extender RF1.4x .. but I do not have time to bring 2 setup for testing 🙁
….. after ~6months use of CANON RF200-800mm (almost every day)
Now I decided to bring RF100-500mm + 1.4x and here is my some sharing
1. User experience
– I can feel the AF is much accurate, fast
– ligther
– not so bulky
2. Image Stabilizer
– i can feel the IS is much effective .. I can have >50% success rate when shooting 1/30 – 1/60 for 700mm
But
for RF200-800mm .. 600-800mm I almost certain I need minimum 1/100 for 20-50% success rate.

I can easily capture reasonable stable video RF100-500mm + 1.4x compare to RF200-800mm
