I'm a new birder & this is my first post here. I currently shoot with a 90D + EFS 55-250. I want to upgrade to RF100-500 lens with either R8 or R7. From reviews I see that both have advantage & disadvantages as follow:
R7
Thanks for your time & suggestions
R7
- Crop sensor, further reach!
- Dual SD card slot, bigger battery
- IBIS (in body image stabilization)
- Full frame but lower megapixel -> potentially smaller file size?
- Single SD, smaller battery -> utilities don't bother me that much
- Lack of IBIS -> Is it very important? Will it hinder my ability to shoot with higher success rate if I had an R7 with the 100-500?
- Better low-light that R7? - this looks very important to me, cause I want to image all kind of birds, not just the cool ones (e.g. small birds such as warblers inside reeds & inside forest canopies)
- Video capability -> this is nice to have but comes in importance only after still photographs.
Thanks for your time & suggestions
