Canon EOS 7D - Performance Strength and Durability 3/8

[@LivingForLOL]

OMG... That camera and that lens! I'm drooling already!!

[@MBrostroem]

7D, a great camera! Not only full of feauters, but also the IQ to go with it. At low ISO, easily class leading resolution. At high ISO, surpricingly the 7D still is class leading capturing more detail, and still manage to control noise very well, despite the high megapixelcount! Bravo Canon! I´ve ordered one..

[@ClankyRochet]

Your voice is so relaxed.

I've had mine for 3 weeks now.... upgraded from the 350D. All I have to say about this baby is WOW. It's so fast, and so complex to use... will take time to get used to all the settings, the pictures are great now, and will only get better with time (I hope) :-) It may be £1699 in the UK but it's only $1699 in the US... guess where I got mine. ;-) Slapped a Canon 17-55mm f/2.8 lens on this and well... it's breathtaking. The AF is VERY fast but also very different from previous Canon cameras..

[@Winny561]

I. want. NO. I. NEED. THIS. CAMERA!

[@zenoist2]

Hmm you also need the right lens to keep up with fast focussing on moving subjects too. Some canon lenses are slow to autofocus. They have different types of autofocus drive. The fastest ones are ring USM. If you want to know more research a bit on google.

[@mahamza86]

I want ONE !!!

[@manilaIlike]

I ordered one

[@ChristopherKblog]

@kiwichai Dont't worry, it's the same in Germany! You get nothing, even on request! But keep in mind. 7d has now a scratch resistant display ;-)) greeting from germany Christopher

[@pogebbies]

It will only set you back about a grand...... that is all! But in fairness... a HD cam can cost over 6K!!! So all in all... Seems like a VERY good buy!!

[@gbsailing1]

@411R411 yes but the Autofocus is slow. You should turn LV off hit the AF focus button or shutter button, then switch to LV. then continue focus by using manual focus. If you purchase an "L" series lens then you can continue manual focus without switching to manual focus on the lens....Cool Canon invention huh!!!

[@411R411]

@provid1234 How often will you be using for video? I have the 40D and the Vixia HF -S100 camcorder. Two dedicated cameras for stills and videos. $1700 for this camera without a lens, I would question you choice. The HD videos takes up a lot of space. You will have to have enough cards if shooting videos. Cards will have to be Extreme speed, which adds more cost. You will also need more batteries. In the end, with a lens you are looking at $2000 +. Better think about it...

@ ChristopherKblog : A Five Stars Review... Very Helpful...

[@411R411]

@provid1234 I can't find this answer anywhere. Maybe you can tell me. Does the Live View work in Auto Mode? Thanks

[@nielda155]

is there a canon eos 7d, just for video????

[@OriginalThisAndThat]

0:38 priceless :)

[@ClankyRochet]

@kiwichai yes. I would agree to that.

[@forisnakiu]

this camera is not weather resistent. Reciently I went to patagonia with 4 7d canon users and their cameras show some troubles with the rain. My friends had to dry their 7d after that because some dials doest not working.

[@gbsailing1]

@algameman Its the fastest 1:2f $3000+ 50mm "L" series

[@TommyPh500d]

@kiwichai canon you give me a link to the shops website

[@herriho]

you just have to go to the shop and buy one.

[@mikeismad61]

Think the presenter is fine, the 7D even better. However... Its just too expensive! £1700 B/O in the UK Think I'll stick with my 40D and 20D until the price drops (a lot)

[@w3tua]

@bradenalmighty Maybe it's because the LOCK button is on for the thumb dial. Hmmmmm

[@bradenalexander]

haha I love how in the video the set button doesn't rotate when the thumb dial is turning

[@gbsailing1]

@411R411 Yes but the autofocus is slow as it is on the Nikon. it is better to focus first then switch to LV then manual focus throughout the vid. with an "L" series lens, you can fulltime focus with the lens still switched to Autofocus !!! How about that for class!!!

[@al_drago]

looks like the lens is a 85mm f/1.2

[@kiwichai]

hello Germany ;D I want some beer! no no, I want nice Mercedes and BMW's and Audi's please bro! Audi R8! BMW 6series + M and finally...Mercedes AMG / Brabus will do =P haha.. anyway, what are you using now? 7D rocks man. 7D + Canon's 35mm f/2.0 excellent stuff. Greetings from Hong Kong =D

[@w3tua]

@bradenalmighty Oh, I understand what you're saying now LOL! Maybe they were using a pre-production mockup made of plastic. hehehehe! Good eye.

[@garybridger9594]

Its let down is noise in low light ,

[@Chic-A-Dee]

Very true.

[@ClankyRochet]

@kiwichai Its all to do with tax and vat. That is why its so expensive.

[@bradenalexander]

ha no even when the lock is on the set button still rotates, just not in canons video

[@icedsolid]

Thats the first time the camera has looked small in someones hand lol.

[@MrSummerboredom19]

is that a nifty fifty on that baby?

[@BlankMessageTV]

its not telling u to go use the camera in the rain hahahah

[@diveactive]

why bother to make crop sensors , just make the camera so it takes both types of lenses. Why produce SLRs smaller then 35mm in the first place . the 1D MK III i bought and was told was full frame is cropped too, Waste of money that was being 10 mp

[@52701970]

+Gary Bridger Hi, a lot of people who take pictures of birds and things of that nature say and use crop bodies and that they are better than full size sensors. I think originally they were making cameras that could do everything. Some professionals use crop bodes. In some cases they are just as good..The first full frame bodies like the cannon 5D for example is a full frame but today crop bodies are better. just my 2 cents.

[@kiwichai]

@ChristopherKblog hello Germany ;D I want some beer! no no, I want nice Mercedes and BMW's and Audi's please bro! Audi R8! BMW 6series + M and finally Mercedes AMG / Brabus will do lols =P .. are you using 7D? 7D rocks although its APS-C.. but still excellent stuff.. im using 7D with Canon's 35mm f/2.0 and 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye. Greetings from Hong Kong ;D

[@oross99]

He wrote Mark 1, not Mark 2. Read correctly before insulting people.

[@BlankMessageTV]

2 grand after taxes and with a kit lens

[@FrayFlip]

A 85mm 1.2 is bigger, so would be a 50mm 1.2 :)

[@forisnakiu]

that was a joke?? cuek!!

[@brt5470]

Needs a new presenter.

[@kiwichai]

@ClankyRochet ahh sod it! its just a pure rip off, simple as that!
