Which kind if pictures would you shoot in the "dark" / at the ISO's mentioned? If you want to I could go out and shoot some pictures and upload the RAWs for you in mentioned ISO range.

Looks good. But looks like you had pretty good available light. That’s still promising. Cropped at all?
Here's the full res, which I just uploaded, no noise reduction, adjustments with contrast, exposure, saturation, highlights and shadows. This was about 19:30 ET with a canopy of trees with a 1.4TC with the 200-600
A cross-posted image of a blooming wisteria stalk in my neighborhood... Come to think of it, I haven’t used any other camera after I took delivery of the A1. Good and bad, I guess. Good that it delivers in gobs in various genres of photography, bad that means I need to sell my other 2 cameras and maybe get another A1 as a back-up body .
Looks good brother. I push my limits way further unfortunately. You’ll probably laugh at me but I’m pushing limits to seconds sometimes, I can do that with the screech family I photograph. These short eared owls I was shooting over the winter the images you see posted on this story are probably between 1/20 - 1/200 of a second from my car window. The images of of them in flight all all high iso. Every image is probably at or over 5,000 iso. The one close up with the vole is 20,000 ISO at 1/20 sec.

The ones perched* obviously the ones in flight were faster shutter speeds lol

I’d send you full res but I can’t. I’m about to hit the sack and that was the quickest way to show you some samples. All those perched images were after sunset. When I shoot the screeches, they come out like 15 minutes after sunset. I have typically 15 minutes to shoot and that’s it. It’s brutal.

a couple more VGSIF.
All these recent swallow shots are still way too cropped in for me. I wasn't shooting at my normal location being out of town this weekend. I hope to get some more presentable shots over the next couple weekends when I can shoot them at much closer range.
Finally found an Eastern Screech-Owl. People on local FB groups have been filling them up with photos of these guys and I feel like I was the last person in New England to actually find one.
