First impression EOS 7D

Canon has dominated the market proves them without competition. If we observe, their closest rivals the new Nikon could break with the appearance of D3.

EOS 7D basically made for user-level professional class, such as for professional photographers who have been accustomed to using the EOS 1D series. Following the success of its predecessor the 10D, 20D, 30D and this camera seems to be made to match the Nikon's their closest rivals with a camera D300 or D200 class. Not to mention the Sony A700 which is also issued which is also the target of several photographers.


First impression EOS 7D

The first impression is the time for me has experienced its differences with its predecessor version, the EOS 50D and 5D Mark II. Of course all fans hoping EOS 7D not just 'change', with a better sensor alone course. Because now been armed 7D for 18 MP sensor. When compared to 7D, 50D display seems a little higher. Panel that there had been at the bottom of the display, the 7D has moved to the left. Then the video panel button has now appeared on the right side of viewfinder. The average size of the EOS 7D button now also a little bigger. Another significant change is also located on the lock panel design, on the lower right side.

With the 'window' APS-C are similar to 50D, this camera is certainly not featured 7D offal like his elder brother was. 7D body because the brain has been immersed double the Dual DIGIC 4 processor, with 19 point AF for points, as well as a new mechanism that allows the camera to continuous shooting frame rate of approximately 8 / second. As a result of this camera is definitely more 'intelligent' and quick in catching an object, to mengabadikannya in an image results. Moreover, these cameras are now equipped with manifold kit lens EF / EF-S (1.6 x field crop) a little satisfied, that is for 18-135mm. One thing is a bit unfortunate, the camera is not full-frame.

In addition to wireless flash control armed, Canon also still provide a video recording features full HD 1080p, with manual control lens 7D's course. To issue this DSLR camera display has a technology Clear View II LCD display of 3 inches, and equipped for 1.0x magnification and 100% coverage viewfinder.

Viewed from the side of the body, EOS 7D was a bit heavy and solid to carry, especially with magnesium alloy cast around him. This is as self-confidence increase, while taking photos with a low speed. This camera actually has a protective seals found in some of the sidelines of his body magnesium alloy. Canon's own claim that the feature of this camera will 'weatherproof' shooting in extreme storm conditions, snow, or rain. But unfortunately this feature I have not had time to prove because only two weather in tropical countries.
