They look like the same image!  One cropped closer.  The thin reeds of grass over or behind the body seem identical.  Am I missing something or did you accidentally post the same image :-)?

They actually seem different enough to my naked eye. And I seem to like the one shot on SL2-S with the Canon 400 a lot better 🤭 to my surprise …

Hi Vikas- Thanks for the feedback, appreciated. They're 2 different images.

She was watching some Antelope & was standing dead still. I had both cameras next to me on the seat & was able to swap cameras instantly.

Here's the EXIF:

I agree. The more I'm using the SL2-S the more I'm liking the images it produces. The SL2-S images are definitely cleaner (less noise) & excellent detail, except for birding. The ability to crop with the SL2 makes a big difference with my bird photography, it's the only particular area where I find SL2 is superior.

However I'm learning to use each camera for its own strengths.

I took several images of another Leopard at night with the SL2-S, ISO was set at 12,500. I've never previously used such a high ISO setting & was blown away by the quality. 

#1. Unprocessed SL2-S file converted to Jpeg (we use red spotlights when viewing animals at night, as it doesn't blind them or affect their night vision).

Thanks Vikas, agree it's interesting to compare the differences between the cameras & lens combinations.

How cool, never knew about it, and now I wonder if my cat reacts to (red) light in the same way …

MTF charts and micro-contrast are really interesting, but how about a photo of my son shooting a beach ball out of his backside?
