Is the Canon EOS 7D any good?

The Canon EOS 7D is without doubt one of the best cameras currently available, offering fantastic build quality, lightning fast performance and superb image quality in virtually any conditions.

How do I change the focus point on my Canon 7D?

Just press the AF point button with your thumb (the little round button, furthest to the right on the back of the 7D) and move the wheel to change your focus point. This allows you to continuously control your point of focus without losing momentum in your session.

How ergonomic is the Canon 7D?

Another ergonomic high-point is the “quick control” screen, which allows setting everything about the 7D right on the back of the camera without having to resort to menus or fiddling with the top LCD, again, just like the 5D Mark II. After using the 7D for a week, I thought it wasmy 5D Mark II.

How much does a Canon 7D cost?

The Canon EOS 7D is an APS-C digital single-lens reflex camera made by Canon. It was announced on 1 September 2009 with a suggested retail price of US$1,699.

How good is the LCD on the 7D?

The 7D’s LCD is the best ever from Canon. The new auto-brightness feature is worlds better than on the 5D Mark II, so it’s actually very useful. The Auto LCD Brightness holds the value measured at each press of the PLAY button, instead of wandering all over as you move the camera. The 7D easily plays and zooms files made on other cameras.

How does The 7D system work?

The 7D system allows all sorts of ways to make things easier. As we just learned, if you change something in a C mode, after the camera resets in usually about a minute, all your temporary settings are reset. What if you want to keep using slightly different settings for a longer period of time? Easy!
