Low Light, High ISO, Rain, can the Canon RF 100-500 succeed in these extreme conditions!? Or is f 7.1 wide open just not enough? And I didn't stop there, I also used it with the RF 1.4x & 2x Extenders in these low light conditions. I had to use ISO as high as 16000 on the R5. 4000 photos later I was quite amazed by the results!
What do you think, have you used this combo in low light? Let me know in the comments.

Appreciate another video based on walk-around shooting - getting a sense of combining fieldcraft and how to use the lens as a birder in the field might use it (as opposed to the more photographer-centric approach of constructing an outdoor studio to design and capture the perfect shot). You make a compelling case for the R5 with this highly impressive lens, with some stunning shots and footage of the parrots especially. Thank you!

Phenomenal Jan, I bought the 100-500 after watching a bunch of reviews including yours and I agree with you. My biggest takeaway though was your comment of shooting 4000 shots. I’ve been too lazy to do that but you’ve inspired!!! Also I’m working on real camera profiles since Adobe doesn’t have one, still in process. When I come up with the right recipe I’d love to have you try it. I’ve been designing cameras for 25 years and can’t stomach inaccurate colors so I’m on a quest…

Double thumbs up. I'm going to have to check out the master class, because I've got this combo (without the extenders) and I'm losing way too much clarity and sharpness upon noise reduction. (Probably because I'm using Lightroom's noise reduction rather than an AI reduction.) Either way, absolutely gorgeous shots! At first glance, I'd have no idea they were in such low light.

I also use it more than my ef 400mm DO ll +1,4lll extender combo with adapter ,it is so much lighter and more flexible ,and equal picture quality. Now when winter and dark days are coming I am getting 1,4 rf extender ,so I can use 100-500mm more with R6 which is so much better on high iso values.

I like the rain showing in the picture. Except that it doesn’t look like rain. But more like extremely tiny snowflakes or flower petals. I think you’ll need a longer shutter time to make it look like rain, so to pull it off, a tripod might become necessary. I’m really impressed that AF works with the extenders (and it makes me a bit envious). Very nice pictures as always.

I thought I had finally got the ideal and complete gear for my bird photography with the R5 and the 100-500. I’ve always thought the image quality penalty of extenders on zoom lens was too high. Now you demonstrate how wrong I am! Damn your excellent videos, Jan Wegener. They’re condemning me to the poor house. First the camera, then the lens, and now extenders! You are at risk of being an accessory to the bank robbery I will need to continue to fund my avarice. Cheers…. Chris

Thank you Jan! Very useful since I evaluate if I should switch to exactly this combo! I use Olympus M1 mark iii with 300mm and the two teleconverters today. Very nice reach (1200mm with TC20) but I'm not happy with AF and miss zoom. R5 AF and image quality seems wonderful but similar reach. I calculated that R5 in crop-mode with TC14 gives 1120mm, f/10 and a 17MB file compared to 1200mm, f/8 and 20MB. I guess R5 will be better even with higher ISO?

Yup, great video Jan, and nice to see you doing some on-the-fly work with birds - pretty much what I do almost all the time (I’ve yet to find the time to do a proper set-up). Question: realistically, are these mirrorless extenders better with the new mirrorless telephoto/R5 combo than the v3 extenders were with the DSLR’s and EF lenses?
@jan_wegener
@jan_wegener 2 года назад
I wouldn't say the image quality is necessarily better, but autofocus is far superior with mirrorless cameras, extenders and RF lenses.

Hi Jan! This is an interesting and very informative video!! I totally agree about thecombination of the R5 and the 100-500. Question: In a former video you advised not to use extenders on zoom lenses? Have you come to another conclusion now? I am thinking about buying either the 1.4 or the 2.0 extender - maybe both: Which one should be first? Again, thanks for this video! Kind Regards, Jan, DK
@jan_wegener
@jan_wegener 2 года назад
It's an interesting question, my general view hasn't changed and even on the 100-500 I would prefer not to use extenders, but it seems like the lens can handle them well enough, which makes them a viable option. The main drawback is that you can't zoom back fully. so with the 2x it's a 600-1000mm lens. I think it depends what you want to achieve with the extenders. Generally speaking a 1.4x is always slightly better than a 2x
@milanhilton1355
@milanhilton1355 2 года назад
Great Video again Jan. I have the R5 and the EF 100-400mm L IS USM 11 lens and both extenders. It works very well @400mm without extenders and reasonable with the 1.4x . I need to decide on a big f4 L prime lens and spend a lot of money or go for the RF 100-500 and more extenders. Part exchange maybe an option. Your thoughts would be welcome.
@jan_wegener
@jan_wegener 2 года назад
The 100-500 is not like a prime lens, it's an improved version of the 100-500 with better AF, IS and reach. So if you want that prime lens look, you'd be best off with as prime lens

"100-500 has become my favourite lens" yes me too I got a young Robin I was about 2mtr away it was set to F8 and it filled the frame and it made 1 hell of an image no editing needed as it was so clear and sharp and then I shot a fungus low just like a macro its an amazing lens . the only down side is that restriction when using the x2 and x1.4 that you cant use the full zoom range

Hi Jan ; Congrats on those beautiful shots. I really like the results. This video is super helpful for me, since I just move from my Nikon setup with a heavy lens to the sony A1 + 200-600 and that is very similar to the setup you are using here. I am still learning the tricks of the autofocus system. Do you have a preference in the custom settings for the two back button for focusing ( AF-ON and AEL Buttons ? Thank you very much. If you come to South America and Chile let me know. Cheers

Hi Jan, another very interesting video, but it raised a few questions. You have already answered the one about extenders on the 100-500mm. The other was how would you choose to use the 100-500mm with extender or the 800mm f/11? The zoom is more flexible, but the 800mm possibly better IQ. I also thought it could be an idea for another video... How do you choose which gear to take on a shoot? (I take as much - or more than - I can comfortably carry and use little of it :-)
@jan_wegener
@jan_wegener 2 года назад
It's hard to say. For me personally it's easier to carry an extender than a second lens. 800 is probably a bit better overall than the 100-500 and 2x Noted the idea :)

@lee-annecarpenter6844 2 года назад
Thank you for your very informative video. I’m considering buying this lens for my canon r6 as it will be lighter than my tamron 150-600 and hopefully a superior lens. I was always taught not to have a shutter speed less than my focal length but I see a lot of you tube videos where professional birders do this regularly. Is stabilisation on these newer lenses good enough that this is not a consideration nowadays
@jan_wegener
@jan_wegener 2 года назад
I think the low shutter speed is something that doesn't really make sense for birds to be honest. It's the old school obsessions with low ISO that drives this, but it's much better to have faster shutter speed and a bit more noise than a lot of blurry images. This lens, albeit shorter will be far superior to the Tamron

Hi Jan! Iwe had this lens now for about a months, im really pleased, tho id wish it was abit sharper, so I have started looking into getting a used 500 or 600 prime ef.. witch one would you say is the sharpest out of the 6 that exists? :)
@jacobgarvelink2441
@jacobgarvelink2441 2 года назад
Another great video. I was contemplating the R6 (still am) but it have a bit of an unexpected financial luck which opens up thinking about the R5…! Shooting in c-raw as per your previous video would be a great option as I am running on quite a bit of an older MacBook Pro. Some people say that the R6 would even be better I. Low light high iso settings, what do you think? Also why with the great boobook photos would you go to f14 and not wide open? This would increase shutter speed but maybe also increase unsharp images? (Sorry for the long comment) If only the lens would be more readily available I would have gotten it!
@jan_wegener
@jan_wegener 2 года назад
F14 is wide open with the 2x. I think for most people the R6 is the sensible choice and the R5 is a great luxury :) Iso wise it might be slightly better, but I didn't find the difference to be huge
@garyleavens8661
@garyleavens8661 2 года назад
Thanks, this is interesting as always. I have the R6 and this RF 100-500, and it’s great: the main problem is too many good pictures now. An advantage of the RF 100-500 is the short minimum focal distance; I like being able to get close to birds or butterflies or dragonflies with it. I haven’t used an extender at all yet. I did try using the 1.6x digital zoom that the R6 provides, and that is okay for birds that are close enough, but when taking pictures of a distant bird in a field, the images were too pixelated. I went back the next day with my older T7i, and its APS-C crop with the EF 400mm f5.6 proceed better images-at least you could see the bird. I concluded that the APS-C was better for such shots, and have used the R6 full frame almost exclusively since. I use DxO Pure Raw as a RAW converter and previewer, with the benefit of noise reduction…
@jan_wegener
@jan_wegener 2 года назад

@brentj7564 2 года назад
Jan, enjoyed the video. I have a question similar to a couple already asked below. In the past reviews I've looked at, it seemed to be the consensus that cropping vs using extenders gave a superior outcome. Are you finding use of the extenders advantageous based on better autofocus that can be achieved?
@jan_wegener
@jan_wegener 2 года назад
It's a tricky one. You also have to looks at things beyond just sharpness. A 2x extender will give me a majorly superior background to shooting at 500mm and then cropping it. The image would just never look right. Having such great AF with extenders certainly helps. I would still try to avoid using extenders on zoom, but in case of this specific lens, they can work quite well. But wouldn't be my choice to have on there every day
