I'm going on a birding trip to southern Ecuador in February and need to decide which kit I'm going to take. At the moment, both my D500 and Z6 are in the bag. I'm only taking my 300mm PF lens plus a 1.4III converter. I suspect the Z6 will be perform better in the low light levels that I'll encounter but if I don't take the D500 I'll probably miss some birds that are small and/or more distant.
I'm aware that I'll have to keep the weight of my bag down so I'm not sure whether taking both bodies would be necessary. I have to provide space for my binoculars and various accessories such as flash, power bank, etc. My camera gear is going in a small bag and I'm also taking a larger carry-on bag for clothing, etc. Yes, I'm hoping to travel light!
So what do you think? D500 or Z6? Or both?
