I do like some photos I take with my 7d and the 100-400 lens. Just am hoping to get fairly close but not too close to photograph the wildlife. I may just use it and be happy with it. I have to start working out to carry it. lol. Thank you for your advice.

Thank you Michael for your response. I have a Canon 7d and a 100-400 lens already. I may just take that along with my Sony 6000 24-240 lens and call it good. I was just hoping to have a lighter camera with a good lens with fast AF since I will be having 2 on me. I really like the Sony being light weight. The Canon 100-400 lens has pretty good AF but I find I have to fine tune it manually. I did try to rent a 1x4 extender for my 7d and that lens but found out it did not auto focus with that camera. Maybe I should rent a Canon camera body that will AF with an extender for my 100-400 lens? If so, what would you recommend? Love your photos by the way! I can't wait for my trip and hope to get some great shots!

Thank you David for your response. I mostly shoot Canon and do have a Sony 6000 camera as well. Hoping to take my Sony and another one for heaviness reasons. I have some research to do.

Hello, I will be going to Canada soon and wanted to know what would be the best equipment to rent. I am a small person and want something not too heavy but will pack a punch. I am thinking of renting the Sony A7ii Sony EF 70-200 lens and possibly a 1x4 or 2x extender. I was hoping the sigma 100-400 lens would work instead (for cost reasons) would the extender auto focus with the camera body? Or is there something else just as good? Hoping to capture bears and other wildlife that I do not have to get to close. Also something quiet. Thanks so much for any help!! Denise
