I've been shedding Canon right and left. The better-half has enjoyed an a6300 for a while but I didn't pay too much attention.
Now I've gotten a chance to play with the a6500 I can get the 7Dii on the buy/sell thread.
Yep, the a6500 could use an extra knob but I can shoot M set up for perched birds and with one swipe-click of the mode dial on top and a press of the center button and I'm instantly (almost) with the settings I'd need for BIF.
Having a lot of clicks under my belt with the 7Dii I can already tell the Sony sensor is beyond the 7Dii's. Today I learned (with good light) that the 1.4TC works fine on the FEGM100400. I've not BIF'ed with this set up but I have no doubt (in good light) that it is easily possible.

She Card looks great, photo wise. But she still hasn't gone to her hairdresser

Full Spectrum Converted A3000. Pulled the coverglass & hot mirror off, so it's a thin sensor mod as well. Lens selection gets tricker, best I've found so far is the Super Takumar 35mm f/3.5. Others get better stopped down to f/8 or so.

Mathieu--

Great shots, very sharp and interesting tonalities. Those lenses seem to be working beautifully. How do you see the images as different from what you would have gotten with a conventional set-up. I'd be interested in hearing your view on that.

What a cute one. I think I've seen one Junco one time in my area....would love to see more.
Noticed manual focus too--that's hard on any bird in cover .

To me, I get a better tonal range in the final image. I've gotten better at editing B&W as Ive shot more and more of it, so maybe I could get closer than before, but this setup seems to do a better job of giving me a fairly contrasty B&W without blocking up the shadows. The older non SMC Super Tak helps too. Prior to edits the RAW files are VERY flat, so it's probably not a SOOC solution but I am never happy with those anyway, so...

The amazing thing is that at an effective 840mm the a6500 still had AF-C with the little green squares dancing on the subject. The ancient 400mm F5.6 has no image stabilization and I was all over the place at this focal length trying to stay on target, so the in camera IBIS of the a6500 was working.

For BIF? I doubt I could ever keep the focus points on target at this distance and in some perched shots if I went from way close to way far or vice versa that was a momentary search--nothing like the a9 with this combo--but still the a6500 + 400/5.6 makes a stellar lightweight wildlife rig.
More studies to follow on this set up.

I now realize how light the 400mm/f5.6 lens was compared to today's superteles. I sold mine to get longer reach and OS. Now waiting to see the introduction of the A7III in October/November
