As to your other reply: of course it depends a lot on the photographer. Having said that, I have been following a bunch of photographers who do birding on POTN over the years, and they are all convinced the R5 helps them a lot.

Actually, looking at the images, most of them have well improved their game as a result, even though they were top notch already.

Specifically, check out member 'robamy' in the R5 image thread over on POTN.

Kind regards, Wim

Some very good and detailed images for sure !! .........  especially like the oyster-catcher .....  he's clearly a good bird photographer first and foremost ....... hence the good low POVs ....... and he knows where to find them and to get close  .......... maybe a lot of shooting from his 4X4?.... hides etc. ......... of course great lenses ...... 600mm F4  ........ 400mm F? ....... and of course the R5 does great !!

   ....... but that wasn't the point of Macs thread ....... it is about crop vs FF ....
 .... he is looking to fill the frame with the birds as often as possible .... which is a common problem ..... he has the 90D already ........ a great high resolution crop sensor!
        
.... to me this is thread is not about which is the best camera ....... it's about what suits the users needs best ...... affordably ! 
 ..... I think Mac has already realized FF is not going help him     ...... hence the conversation about a crop sensor ML sports camera ...... 

 ....... until then most birders will be shooting crop sensor DSLRs ...... for that reach!
Rob actually crops most of the time. But he also uses long lenses even with the 2x extender to great effect.
With 45 MP, you have quite a bit of leeway to crop, that was my whole point. No need for APS-C anymore.

Do yourself a favor, and look a bit more through that thread. It contains enough bird shoots good enough to fill a century worth of bird-calendars.

 
  ......... he must have spent what $28 grand ?? ........ I suppose that's reasonable for a hundred years of calendars ........... 

 ........ let's all go out and spend that ......... though personally I wonder how many calendars I'll be needing!!
