The editors liked
Ruggedised body
Amazing auto-focus system
Great for sports and wildlife
The image quality is excellent and high ISO pictures are remarkably noise free. At ISO6400 saving in RAW noise is barely perceptible – JPEG is equally impressive with no objectionable fudging of fine detail. The combination of the fast auto focus and outs
Fast shutter
Fast focus
Preserving its familiar and weather-sealed design
The 7D Mark II builds on the best of its predecessor
It's speedy with excellent photo and video quality
GPS
A flexible autofocus system and a big
Bright viewfinder
10fps continuous shooting
Excellent ergonomics
Lots of customisation options available
The editors didn't like
Still some video features missing
Performance not much better than any other APS-C camera
Niche performer
No WiFi
NFC
Focus peaking or a swivelling LCD in an expensive camera is perplexing
Making the 7D MkII feel oldfashioned
Fixed screen position
No tilting or articulated display makes shooting video without a rig annoying
And it lacks built-in Wi-Fi
Fixed screen that's not touchsensitive
No WiFi connectivity builtin
SLR design means the viewfinder can't show the image as it will be captured
Preserving its familiar and weather-sealed design, the 7D Mark II builds on the best of its predecessor: it's speedy with excellent photo and video quality, GPS, a flexible autofocus system and a big, bright viewfinder
No tilting or articulated display makes shooting video without a rig annoying, and it lacks built-in Wi-Fi
The fixed LCD and lack of built-in wireless file transfer support may make some people cross it off their short list, but the Canon EOS 7D Mark II should please any Canon fan looking for speed....

Who should buy this camera? Anyone with a kit of Canon cropped-factor lenses and accessories will love it, but for anyone entering the DSLR market unencumbered it may only be the brand name that will attract. The Nikon D7100 is half the price, and APS mir...
The EOS 7D Mark II's more weatherproof body and robust shutter mechanism are quantifiable benefits for sports and wildlife photographers. Add to that the Mark II's versatile AF modes, along with the 10 frames/second maximum frame-rate and Dual-Pixel autof...
In many ways, Canon's EOS 7D Mark II is a typical replacement model to the original: it's faster, has more processing power, and it brings forth tweaks to the body and feature-set that make it a better product overall. If speed is your major concern...
On paper, at least, the EOS 7D Mark II is likely to satisfy some upgraders. But, if you already have an EOS 7D that does everything you need, we don't think the new camera provides a compelling reason to change.The differences between 18 and 20.2 megapixe...
10fps continuous shooting, Excellent ergonomics, Lots of customisation options available
Fixed screen that's not touchsensitive, No WiFi connectivity builtin, SLR design means the viewfinder can't show the image as it will be captured
Although there are many photographers that are happy to use a camera with 16 million pixels on either an APS-C or full-frame format sensor, I suspect that there will be quite a few who criticise Canon for only making a modest increase on the 7D's pixel c...

Abstract: It's finally here. The Canon 7D Mark II, probably the most anticipated, rumoured, speculated-about camera in years, is ready to make its debut. It's been five years since the original 7D hit shelves in 2009, so you better believe the expectations are high...
Weatherproof construction, 65 cross-type AF points, 10fps continuous shooting, GPS built in
Fixed rear screen, 1080p video only, Only 20.2MP resolution
The EOS 7D Mark II has been a favorite amongst Canon sports fans. Its weatherproofing means that it can be used in harsh conditions, and its autofocus system gets moving subjects sharp quickly. The metering system delivers correctly exposed images in a wi...
