This guy gave me the quintessential Coyote "look" as I caught him going over the snowbank.

The larger image is extremely sharp. I have noticed your mages with teh Sony are all very sharp. Based on the results I see in your posts, I am impressed with the camera.

Jerry;  the a6500 with the mirrorless full frame 100-400 GSM lens has turned out to be a pretty strong combination.  The camera is small and light and the lens is relatively small so the pair is easy to hand hold while tracking animals and birds plus the focus is quite fast and accurate.  The lens is extremely sharp and the camera's crop factor turns it into a 150-600 mm.  In addition, the camera has 5-axis motion compensation and the lens has VR also.  Sony says to leave the lens VR turned on and the camera will work together with it to get even greater reduction.  It seems to work quite well.  I have yet to use a tripod with this combination.

Well named.  The coyote detail looks great.  The dirt flecked snow is oddly interesting.  Only smallish nit is the background feels a little busy.
