Great captures! These images are impressive especially so considering use of a 2x teleconverter. Wow! How would you rate the image quality of the 300GM with 2x TC compared to your 600 F4 with no TC? Take care
Looks like with the a1 and 300, heavy cropping holds up really well. Was the first owl image full frame or was that cropped too? Love the detail and has me contemplating a 300.

First owl is 26.4MP remaining out of 50. The 2nd one is another shot from that flight sequence and that one is down to only 5MP. This lens is super sharp and the fastest focusing Sony telephoto I've used (and I've owned them all).
If the A1 had this feature I am not sure that I would have bought the A9.3.
But now that I have gained some experience at 120 FPS on the A9.3, getting the A9.3 was the right way to go.
A frame rate of 120 vs 30 FPS is really a different ball game, not even close.
A buffer of 192 images allows for these shooting durations before the A9.3 slows down to 6 FPS:
• 120 FPS - 1.6 s
• 60 FPS - 3.2 s
• 30 FPS - 6.4 s
• 15 FPS - 12.8 s
unless the buffer can also being emptied while written to.
Advanced Elements Airfusion EVO inflatable. It's drop stitch, so it paddles like a rigid boat, but even though it's pretty stable for paddling, it feels a bit tippy with the 600 F4 until you get used to it. Nothing that can't be solved with practice I guess, but if you have the space, just get a rigid boat like a Pungo or a Loon.

Thanks. Ive been thinking about an inflatable because of space and because I don't want to buy a rack for my car

. May be slightly wider view (crop the height from top) would be great on the wall..
