- from macro/close up to small distant birds.
I spent 3 days out with my RF800 F11, my RF100-400mm and my Canon R7.
Around a lake and at a beautiful beach with some mangrove, trying to show how cool the combo is, and that you can absolutely have fun and make good photos with some of the cheapest telephoto lenses available.

Sitting here with a cup of tea, relaxing and enjoying another one of your video's. Fantastic as always. Really appreciate your content.
Thank you so much Miles! 😀👍
This type of comment is what makes me keep pushing! 😃
Great video. Lovely location and some great shots!
Thank you very much Richard!👍
I love that place... So many different animals, the sunrises, beautiful place, especially at very low tide.
😀
Thanks for the video, Chris.
Thank's to you for the comment! 👍
I never know if I call you Roger or Anthony. 😁
Ah Chris - thank you, thank you!!!! This is really awesome. I can not tell you how impressed I was with that 100-400 and what it does. The little children of the lake are sooooo cute! really really awesome - thank you, thank you thank you!! And as always, YOUR photos are stunning - I think my favorites are the wasps! and the birds...... and ..... you know, the 800 F11 and the 200-800 I prefer on a full frame! 🙏🤗💖
I am glad you liked it, thank you for the comment! 😀👍
I think I will buy a full frame at some point. I try to resist and wait for new stuff to come. 😅
@@Chrispitchwildlife I am waiting too!! What I miss about the R5 is the 8K... and the larger sensor. I hope the R5II is stacked and if not, I will keep shooting the R3 - it is a pretty amazing body. 🤗
Awesome video! I loved the jonnypink shoutout with the kids 😂
Thank you very much James! 👍😀
That was a bit tricky to edit. 😅
@@Chrispitchwildlife hahaha it was so very well done. I can only imagine !!
I agree the 100-400mm is more fun because of its versatility. Even with the 600mm f11, I always found myself too close to the subject. These budget lenses are always fun to use. Great photos! Take care. 😎👍
Thank you so much for your comment! Yes, at those affordable prices, it's amazing all we can do. And the quality we get. 😀👍
Hi Chris - I use the R50 with the RF 100-400 and the 1.4 Extender giving an equivalent focal length of 225 - 895 at f11 - I find this combo works really well. I prefer this set up to the Rf800 f11. Nowadays I need the zoom to help me find my subject. Really enjoyed your video. 😊😊
Oh! Thank you very much for the comment! 😲
Extenders! I totally forgot about them...
Yeah, just adding an extender when needed seems to make sense! 🤔
Personally, now that I am using only my RF100-500, I may dig into it, if I have time... Maybe.
Thank you again, cheers! 👍😀
Great review ❤
@@fasuego thank you very much Fausto! 😀👍
@@Chrispitchwildlife excuse me Chris,what cover do you have for canon RF 800
@@fasuego you mean the green army thing?
I bought in Lazada (equivalent of Amazon in South Asia).
It's probably hand made and quite expensive. Maybe 55 USD.
It a 1mm rubber colored bands.
I could protect le lens from attracting the heat of the sun at least. I am not sure if it's really useful, I bought it for protection at first 😁. But it can become messy sometimes.
There is probably the same on Amazon.
Good review and with the R7 you can do some major cropping due to the high resolution (mega pixels) of the sensor. It's regretful that the R7 has that high price.
Yes, for macro shooting you should use a flash 🙂
Hey Dennis,
Thank's for watching again, and for the comment! 😀👍
Iadmit that the R7 is probably the one cropped censor to get for wildlife. But I know a guy (Jonny Pink) who say that he will sell it and buy the R50. Mostly because he don't use the R7, but he also prefers the EVF and the tracking. He seems impressed by that little R50.
Cheers! 😄
Another really enjoyable video, thanks!
On a sidenote, talk to your barber. 😄
Haha! Why is that? Because of the blood on my forehead? 😁
Thank's for the comment Leon! 😀👍
Thank you for review, I am planning also to purchase RF 100-400mm for my R50.
Thank you so much for the comment. 😀
You will be very happy with it, for sure. So much you can do for that budget friendly price! 🤩👍
I use R50+ RF 100-400 mm. It's also a good combination although you can experience an imbalance between them due to the size of the camera house. Happy shooting 😊
Try to make a blog about the birds in Palawan and other wildlife. 😊 You have lots of printable pictures in this blog. ⭐
Thank you for your comment Francis! 😀
100-400 for the win. I wouldn't say cheap but relatively affordable for a camera gear. My fellow Filipinos will smack my head if I call these prices cheap or even "affordable for a camera gear" especially if they know nothing about the hobby.
Thank you Gold! 👍😀
I could not squeeze "not the price of a car" in the Thumbnail. 😆
Edited:
I mean :brand new car ..
