I currently have an EOS R paired with the RF100-500 zoom lens. I take a lot of pictures of birds in trees and what I am finding is that the Autofocus is too large when shooting a small bird. I am looking to upgrade my camera but I am looking for a recommendation for a model with the smallest focus point and preferably with selectable sizes. I use small autofocus point with the EOS R but it is still too big for warbler sized birds.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Since you have the RF 100-500mm lens already I would keep that as it is really good, unless you need even more reach for small birds at large distances. Look at the EOS R6 Mark II and possibly even better is the EOS R5 Mark II. The extra pixels allow plenty of cropping to be done after you have taken the photo.
