New Canon 7D (Connor Stefanison)


A week ago I went to a special Canon 7D product launch, here in Vancouver. Most of you have probably read a thing or two about this hot new camera. I was luckily able to purchase a 7D body at this event, and have so far been very impressed with the camera. Some of the features on the 7D include:
18 megapixels
Dual Digic 4 processors
new 3' LCD screen
Live view/Full HD video
8 Frames per second
100% viewfinder
wireless flash capabilities
new wider on board flash
capable of exposing to +-8 stops
The battery is also very long lasting

To name a few...

Last year when people bought the 50D, they complained about unsharp pictures. They soon found out they had to adjust the camera to their lenses. I found that with a 500mm F4 the camera took some time to adjust, and with smaller lenses (24-105, 70-200) the images were pretty sharp out of the box. I've only photographed a football game, and some ducks so far, and i've been very impressed with the 7D.

The image above was taken at Burnaby Lake, and the subject is a male wood duck.

  1. Neat! Do you use any lenses other than the 24-105, 70-200, and 500/4?

  2. I have a 100mm F2.8 macro, but I don't use it a lot. For me, flowers are only fun to shoot for so long.

  3. Yeah, flowers are boring usually, but bugs are too cool. Plus, they are pretty much everywhere... :-)

  4. I haven't really tried bugs yet. I'd like to try some more macro though.

  5. Thank you so much, nice job! Louis Vuitton was the thing I needed to get.You guys should think of arranging some gallery to exhibit them out there! Personally I adore custom essays on this topic because they help us arise the awareness in people.
