Canon EOS 7D Mark II Reviews

Evaluation 5
Advantages: A lot of them.
1. Focus
2. 65 focus points and all cross!
3. The processor is super.
4. Workers iso 6400
5. Even more convenient control, it would seem much more convenient, but there is much!
6. Flickering light function
7. Dust-moisture protection.
And you can still list :)
Disadvantages: Is that the price.
Comment: I use a little more than two months. The camera does not get tired to surprise. Management delivers true enjoyment. Everything is convenient, fast. Autofocus settings and its "tenacity" when posting an object are fascinated. Workers, high iso, that was so lacking on 7D. Decent picture in the chamber jpeg

Evaluation 4
Advantages: The owner of this unit is a matter of days, but now I want to announce the amazing work of Canon engineers.
1) Focus - lightning with good L lenses. Even if it is not the fastest L lens, for example, with 100 2.8 L macro (at times faster than on the brand). A lot of fine settings + tracking autofocus.
2) The function of compensating the blinking of a light source is a very cool thing, with fast series in rooms with certain light sources.
3) Series - this is not a camera, this is a machine gun. The new processor is very fast. With the right map you can make fast beautiful series, so as not to miss anything.
4) ISO - level 5d mark3. 16,000 - workers with noise when converting from RAW.6400 look like 1000 at 5d mark2. It is possible and higher but why!) The main trouble 7d of the first version was cured.
5) Ergonomics remained at the level. Everything is convenient, everything is clear, everything is at hand.
6) Video - everything for videographers, necessary connectors, tracking auto focus, formats + settings and of course quality at height.
Disadvantages: Crop matrix - for me it is now a minus (later, when the bundle has a full frame, it will be a plus).
Price due to the growth of $ in terms of rubles. If you stay in the $ field is valuable is quite adequate.
Comment: The camera causes children's delight in those who are not spoiled by 1dx and 1dc. It caused me. Long thought between 7d mark2 and 5d mark3, I made my choice. Later otpishu not regretted it!)




It has been almost 3 months since the first review:
On the pros and cons:
+ There is no disappointment, rather, on the contrary, the camera never ceases to amaze:

1) its autofocus - did not encounter a camera capable of holding an object in spite of objects of the same type appearing in front of the object (for example, basketball, player dribbles, other players run through the player and the shooting point, but the focus is not lost for a second, although in fact for the camera all players are extremely similar). Autofocus in a dark room, where other cameras have not seen anything for a long time, it continues to hit the target.

2) iso - still pleasantly surprised by the tall ones on the crope (honestly not expected against the rest of Canon's crohn)

3) Ergonomics - conveniently not the right word!) The camera can really be a continuation of the hand.

- Minuses :
In my opinion, the big drawback is only one lack of radio ignition of external puffs.

Evaluation 5
Advantages: There are many.

Comment: Well what can I say, a copy of the Canon 5D Mark 3, with a new processor.
