This camera is ultra responsive with seemingly no time lag between imagining the picture and having it saved on the CF card. The 8fps burst speed is ideal for capturing fast-moving subjects. Auto focus and auto exposure are almost always spot on. The ...

Only having three-frame auto bracketing is poor. Nikon brackets nine and Pentax seven

Only having three frame auto bracketing is poor. Nikon brackets nine and Pentax seven – which is ideal for creating high dynamic range sets. The low light auto-focus assist lamp is still the dreadful pulse flash method.
Focusing wasn’t always accurate

Abstract: Canons X0D series was, for many years, essentially the default choice for keen enthusiasts, professionals and aspiring-professionals who wanted top-level image quality and functionality without the bulk (or price) of a pro-level camera such as the 1...

The obvious decision for anyone looking to buy a Canon is whether to go for the 7D or splash out on the 5D MKII. With the 5D MKII costing around £450 extra, it's not an easy choice. For the most fine-grained image quality, and particularly for profession...
Abstract: Thanks to its new 19 cross-type AF points, its extremely high ISO settings and a burst mode that allows up to eight frames to be captured in one second, the Canon EOS 7D is the natural choice when it comes to photographing action and sport. The camera ...
As a smaller sibling to the 5D Mark II, it was the video capabilities that created the buzz around the EOS 7D. It was the only alternative for sensible frame rates, whilst still being able to take advantage of the huge selection of fast EF lenses and ...
