I'm looking for some advice on a lightweight setup with a long lens (400-600mm equivalent).
My life takes me to lots of fantastic places for wildlife photography and I currently have a Canon 6dii with the 24-105 f4 L, and an 80d with a sigma C 150-600. I don't have any complaints with the gear apart from weight, which is becoming a real problem as I'm having to walk increasing distances carrying everything.
So, I'm looking to switch things up. I'm still going to need two bodies with lenses covering a similar range, I don't want to sacrifice image quality too much (including the ability to crop when even the 600mm isn't enough) and I have to be able to shoot BIF at least as well as the 80d/sigma can manage. I know I can find a good mirrorless with the shorter range, it's how to get to the 600mm that's proving a challenge!
Any suggestions?
