Canon EOS 7D

[@BandH]

@hillomin The 7D is a bigger, more robust camera with more autofocus points, shoots more frames per second and has better weather sealing. The T4i has a newer Digic 5 processor versus the Digic 4 processor on the older 7D, but they have the same amount of resolution and the sensors are most likely identical. In all honesty, image quality will be identical, so if image quality is your primary concern you may want to go with the T4i.

[@bouchandre]

@FullHD911 I don't really think that we will see a 7d mark II anytime soon, but rather a 5d mark III. I got the 7d a couple months ago and Ilove it. Although I would really like to have the full frame sensor, I had to go with my budget.

[@BandH]

@Axel2199 The Canon EOS 7D can be used for both professional and semi-professional work, as well as an upgrade for serious amateur photography.

[@BandH]

@vigneshbaliga All SLRS and DSLR lenses are named/enumerated based on the 35mm format even if they are designed for the APS-C/1.6x format cameras. ANY lens you mount on the 7D will be multiplied by 1.6x. On the 7D the 18-135mm lens is equivalent to 29-216mm as you indicated before. Yossi

@PersnickertyTaurus While I cannot state where you can purchase the camera in Texas, as B&H is located in New York, I can state as of the time of this message, the Canon EOS 7D is currently in stock at B&H and we do ship to Texas. As far as where you can purchase the camera in Texas, my recommendation would be to simply use Google' search engine (or your preferred search engine) to locate camera stores in your area, then contact them and inquire if they have the camera available.

[@myzzzzzt]

Nice to see a professional review where the guy knows exactly what he is talking about, thanks!

[@AMC-throwaway]

Thanks for the response like a year ago haha, been a while since i been on this account but wanted to say i bought the camera from you guys and love it. Now i need to add another prime telephoto lens to the collection.

[@krazy4baja]

Hi fullhd911, the 7d is an amazing camera, I have one and luv it. I've had it a long time now and it still works great. Amazing for sport shots, land scape, portraits and so on. If u are that concerned about something better coming out for the same price I'd go ask someone at a camera store if something's better or more improved than the 7d. What it really comes down to is what are you using the camera for and how experience u are with a camera

[@kilo1410]

would you still buy this camera even though the t4i just came out and it looks pretty good

[@Karmanya101]

B&H offers two type of lens with 7D (as a kit), 28-135mm EF Lens and 18-135mm EF-S lens. What I understand is the 28-135mm EF lens when mounted on 7D would be 44-216mm (1.6x crop). But what about the 18-135mm EF-S lens? Since it is EF-S should it not be 18-135mm? On your website it says “lens is equivalent to a 29-216mm lens in 35mm format”., so what effect would I get ? 18-135mm or 29-216mm ?

[@candesu97]

Hey I was wondering your opinions on whether it would be wiser to invest in an T4i or 7D. I basically just want better image quality, mostly portrait wise. Any advice? I heard the T4i was more of an amateur camera, but I'd like to hear a bit more from an expert.

[@TheFemvet76]

Canon's are always in style and never loose value. I have an AE1, I used in my job in the Army and still use. I have the Rebel T1, the OES D50, A few ggod lens, filters, and I am good to go. Buy the body and good lenses (not kit) You can always use it. I will get another digital in about 3 yrs. Am getting llights, other support equipment, studio, etc stuff. Buidl your equipment slowly. Invest in good lenses. They will change..AE1 has bayonet mounts.

[@AMC-throwaway]

is there any promotional deals on this camera ?

[@mikeismad61]

Love the 7D - can't wait to see what replaces it and of course the traditional sell off - I always buy last of the line as: 1: I get a great price 2: all of the bugs/problems have been sorted Always nice to get the latest new toy but I've saved LOADS on my 20D/ 40D and S90..... Good review with no nonsense and clear diction - thank you

[@Axel2199]

This camera is a professional camera... right? Or is it semi-pro?

[@eliasali9383]

hey B&H I considering this camera to replace my t3i.. will I see an improvement in IQ and noise performance? I shoot products and portrait and mainly sports and soon I'll shoot video.

[@vertix6375]

What kind of lens did you use for the canon eos 7d

[@BandH]

This is the Canon 70-200 f/4 bhpho.to/35IV1KO

[@puterjames]

Its all about the Sony Alpha 55..... can shoot 10 frames per second, with an electronic viewfinder that shows you what the picture will be like with your changed aperture, shutter speed, etc., and has flawless 1080p HD video!!!!! It`s a no-brainer....

[@HarryW23]

@FullHD911 With everything that happened in Japan, it's looking like a 7d mk ii and a 5d mk iii won't be arriving until early 2013.

[@Marpuffthegreat]

is this in video recordring?

[@carriebarth9956]

Your video talks about the Canon EOS 7D video capabilities and then you show some video that is focus with moving footage, however, I am not aware that there is autofocus on the 7D. I have only been able to use video on the Canon 7D when my subject stands in one spot and doesn't move side to side or back or forward. Is there something Is there something I could do to shoot video with my Canon 7D that will stay in focus with moving subjects? Thanks! - Carrie

[@BandH]

The Canon 7D uses AI Servo AF to tracking a moving subject. If your shot does not require any sound, then you could use this mode for shooting video. Otherwise, it is best to manually focus the shot to avoid any unwanted noise from the AF motor and to avoid the focus being thrown out.

@MrAntcook There is an instant savings of $150.00 until June 30th.

[@shutterbuginfinity]

The Canon 7d is great camera for all types of photos

[@SyCoNationHD]

PLEASE HELP ME! I want to invest in a good camera for making short movies, documentaries etc.. but im not sure what to get, i was looking at dslrs such as the 7d or any other ones, but i could also get a pro camcorder such as the sony nex vg30 which i saw in Best buy. Can somebody help me decide what to get for a filmmaker? I really cant choose, some saw dslrs have a more movie like video because of the sensor but idk. Please help!

[@harrahphotoman]

Some believe it may be two years down the road (the next 7D). I agree with bouchandre -- buy what you need now without worrying about what's next. If you need it, you need it.

[@VictorBelloso]

What does it do better take pictures or take videos please answer

[@BandH]

***** The 7D performs well for both video and stills, as it is capable of full HD video and has a high resolution sensor for still images. |Heather S|

[@VictorBelloso]

B and H Will a canon 28-80mm EF Zoom lens work for a canon EOS 10D

[@BandH]

***** The Canon EF 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6 lens will be compatible with the Canon 10D, yes. The EF lenses can be used on any Canon DSLR or EOS film camera. *Christina* [e-mail]

[@VictorBelloso]

B and H Thank you.

[@AKRON-Productions]

I also own a 10D!

[@johnsaw1983]

Remind yourself that it is glass that kills the bank roll with photogr5aphy not the bodies. I've been Saving for the 7D for over a year now and it is killing me not having it in my bag. I still have a Olympus E-500 I'm shooting with.

[@xC4Rbonx]

i just picked one up. love it so far.

[@shob1972]

very nice review.. can you do a review for canon 60d

[@reactionart]

People do your research. I have the canon7d and used t4i intensively and the image quality in raw is the same, same with video quality. Digic5 will only make a slight difference in noise handling in jpg. You'll get the same noise reduction result in light room when editing raw. Pro still use it for sports and journalism. Don't knock that its a disappointing camera. Feature films have also used it: Like Crazy, red tails, 127 hours, avengers, end of watch and act of valor. Also numerous TV shows.

[@VINCENTOCONNOR]

Excellent video. Very well presented. Thank you. Vincent Canary Islands

[@jakobogrobin]

@FullHD911 i'm considering the exact same thing... i would wait to be honest. it's a lot of money to spend and i bet the new 7D Mark II or whatever they're gonna call it will be amazing so i would wait.

[@tattooartdesign]

Think I might buy a 7D, especially for the video quality

[@BandH]

Please contact us via e-mail with your complete question: askbh{at}bandh{dot}com. MarkS

[@BigAntTVMedia]

no its not an amateur camera da T4i it takes better pics then the 7D with less noise and better colors just get a 18-135 stm lens and your good too go

[@Naveedhoti1]

every one should watch this video for making quality video

[@PushkaCom]

waa ~ O___O looks amazing ~ I hope they don't double the price in Australia, just because it's another country...

[@jptothetree]

great video man!

[@garybridger9594]

I dropped mine , the only part that got broke was the LCD , host £80 for the repair. Not bad. they replaced the whole top,

[@divadareen]

@FullHD911 Buy it used... if they do come out with a mark ii, sell it, and consider the price difference a rental fee ;)

[@TheJoengaa]

love youre voice thumbs up

[@MartinDaaeLamp]

Im so gonna buy this camera! :D

[@reactionart]

I also noticed that T4is live view image representation on its LCD is the worst. So much noise on the screen its annoying. Why would canon do that. I have never seen it on any live view. Ugh

[@picometer472]

Why do you need to wave your hands when you talk?

[@ChandanaCTV]

picometer472 LOL

[@SroteProduction]

thanks

[@alanrobertson9371]

Very nice, thank you.

[@KungPaoSauce]

@FullHD911 Just wait dude i'm pretty sure it will be worth it because i'm waiting as well :)

[@MrBongkies]

nice review

[@BennyIskandar]

It's robust and the speed especially the focus is very fast ! , but i still don't like the IQ result .

[@metronomic1]

@FullHD911 Just get it, you wont be sorry. I did.

[@creevaghmiddle]

WANT!

[@dargoth13]

if I bought a 7d i would drop it walking out of the store. ill stick to my d70, it's too risky.

[@Bitternov]

Great camera....Oh, and btw, I'm super cool. See: facial hair fashion statement. And, I need to wear a suite coat (chilly in here) and of course, black tee shirt and don't forget, untucked and unbuttoned shirt....But, as cool and free as I coolly look, I've got my foot in the door with the wedding ring. B&H knows you guys like cool stuff---but not too too out there....kind of out of the box in the box kind of thing,
