Looks like your 'birding' day out was much like mine tend to be 😎. A lot of my time's spent on local beaches, shooting surfing, so I invariably have the 100-400 + 1.4 t/c glued to the x-t4 (upgrade to x-t5 imminent 😉) & still don't get close enough! But hoping the 40mpx will help with cropping. The route home (I ride an Ebike) includes ~9 miles alongside the estuary of the river Camel, so waders, geese etc feature a lot - and huge distances 🥴. I see you have the gopro mounted on the hotshoe & I've just started to do the same, so it's a bit like looking down the barrel of a howitzer on my vids.
I don't know it you saw, but Fujifilm just announced a version of the 500mm f/5.6 lens for their X-mount. Used with the X-T5, that will essentially give you 750mm with 40 megapixels (plenty of room to crop from there, if needed), at probably the lightest form factor for anything in the 750-800mm focal range (for prime lenses) currently available in any camera system. Given your experience with the Fujifilm system, I'd be curious to hear your opinion of whether that might work as a good walkaround kit for people who do a lot of songbird photography, but also a lot of hiking.
its not bad but if you're doing it professionally I'd suggest going full frame. Nikon or Sony imo. If you're just shooting for your kids then fuji is more than enough.

How heavy is the xf200mm in comparison to the 100-400mm in terms of weight? Is there much difference?
Those still shots are damn fine.
Good video and fantastic colours. I really wonder how can you achieve that colurs?
It’s Fuji, we don’t need to do much. Just compose and colours are taken care.
lens ?
Thanks mate!!! Appreciate it 😊
How about Lumix G9 II with Leica 100-400?
Hi..for sports photography do yiu recommend xh2 ?? I mean autofocus good? Enough you think?

From my experience, the X-T5 falls short of the X-H2s for bird photography due to its autofocus. The X-T5 is a brilliant travel camera, though.
Looks like that bird at 4:46 owes some gambling debts. Seems like someone cut off his finger.
