Having bought simultaneously two 200-600 copies last month and after extensively testing both of them I finally chose which I thought was the best one at 500/600 mm. Which by the way resulted to be at 600 mm as sharp in the central zone as my 135 GM at f5,6. So very impressed with it.
I use the 2-6 with Sony A7 III and A7 RIII bodies, but on the latter the AF isn't so efficient and reliable as with the A7 III. In consequence I mainly use it with the A7 III, so the poorer guy here among so many A9s
I am wondering the best way to increase the reaching with the 200-600 and keep great AF. RIV? TC 1.4? Wait for a new body?

If you're shooting in good light, a crop sensor camera is about the same as having a 1.4 teleconverter on the lens, without
losing a stop of light. (but I really dislike the smaller batteries in most of the crop cameras)
