The Canon EOS 7D really does boast some impressive features. Designed to fulfil the requirements of the professional photographer, it’s no surprise that the precise focus offered by the Canon EOS 7D is hard to beat. Particularly exciting is the inclusion of the 19 point cross type auto-focus system combined with an intelligent sensor system which allows the camera to automatically detect the image subject. This means that even the amateur photographer can be confident in consistently superior results.
When considering upgrading from a relatively simple point and shoot camera to a digital SLR, the prospect of getting to grips with concepts like f-stops and exposure can be pretty daunting. Although going down this route might give you better results than automatic shooting, many digital SLRs do still offer the automatic option. While the Canon EOS 7D really comes into its own with the use of manual controls, it does still feature some really excellent automatic programs.
With an image resolution of 18MP and a 3 inch LCD display, the Canon EOS 7D combines features with functionality. The screen accuracy is superior to that of previous models giving a top quality display. The added feature of a self-cleaning option is particularly useful. With the option to disable if preferred, the filter in front of the sensor can be set to vibrate at high frequency at start-up and shut down in order to remove any dust from the sensor unit.
The Canon EOS 7D is compatible with a wide range of accessories and can be used with both compact flash and microdrive cards, with the additional bonus of optional external storage. Packed with features, the Canon EOS 7D doesn’t compromise on style. The magnesium alloy body not only looks good, but is dust and weather resistant, allowing you peace of mind in every situation. With features designed to enhance every step in your journey to sharp, impressive images, the Canon EOS 7D is a serious contender as the tool of choice for the professional photographer. In direct competition with the leading Sony and Nokia digital SLR cameras, this latest offering from Canon can certainly hold its own. Aimed at the professional market, this camera is not at the lower end of the price spectrum. However, if top quality professional images are what you’re after, the Canon EOS 7D might just prove itself to be worth every penny.
