Remember the Essentials
A lens and a memory card are required but not included with this camera. Please be sure to purchase a lens and a memory card for this camera.
Designed for pros and semi-pros alike, the Canon EOS 7D is a high-performance digital SLR, that features the resolving power of an 18-megapixel APS-C format CMOS sensor and dual DIGIC 4 image processors that enable 8 frames-per-second capture of high-definition, low-noise imaging at sensitivity levels up to ISO 12800.
In addition to high-definition still images the Canon EOS 7D can also capture true HD 1080p video at 30 frames per second. Video clips can be up to 12 minutes in length or 4GB in size, and you can make full use of all Canon EF and EF-S-mount lenses, which enables an exceptional range of creative visual possibilities. And to ensure clean, blemish-free image files, the 7D employs a dual dust-reduction system.
The EOS 7D's Intelligent Viewfinder enables 100% viewing of the total image area, and features a transparent LCD overlay option that enables advanced data display within the optical viewfinder including user-selected AF modes, a spot metering circle, and on-demand grid lines. In addition to the 7D's optical viewfinder a Live View mode enables you to compose, review, and edit images using the camera's 3", 920,000-dot TFT LCD. The 7D also features a Dual Axis Electronic Level and tilt display that enables you to adjust the roll and pitch of the camera in 1° increments, using the viewfinder or LCD.
For continuous shooting sequences, the 7D can capture bursts of up to 126 JPEGs (large) when using UDMA CF memory cards, or 15 when shooting RAW files. An enhanced all cross-type 19-point autofocus system enables extremely accurate AI Servo AF subject tracking and user-selectable AF modes for precise focusing. For metering stills and video, the 7D features a new 63-zone iFCL metering system that takes focus and color data into consideration when establishing exposure times.
The Canon EOS 7D is constructed out of rugged magnesium-alloy and is sealed against dust and weather. The 7D's shutter is equally rugged and tested for up to 150,000 exposure cycles. Images can be recorded to Type I and II, UDMA-compliant CompactFlash cards in either sRGB or Adobe RGB, and you can expect up to 800 exposures per charge using the camera's rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
- 18.0 Megapixel CMOS Sensor and Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors
- The EOS 7D features a Canon-designed 18.0 Megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor that captures such a high level of resolution it's easy to crop images for enlargement without concern of losing detail. A major factor in reducing noise, the CMOS sensor assures that images shot at highest sensitivity will be remarkably smooth. Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors ensure that images are captured, processed and saved with remarkable speed. The EOS 7D's ability to capture and process data of images shot at 18.0 Megapixels at 8 fps, as well as Face Detection Live Mode, Full HD video recording, Auto Lighting Optimizer and Lens Peripheral optimization are all possible thanks to the Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors.
- ISO 100-6400 (expandable to 12800)
- With a broad range of ISO settings, the EOS 7D enables shooting from dawn through dusk and ensures capture of the finest detail. With enhanced, low-noise high-sensitivity optimization, shooting in situations previously possible only with flash are easier than ever before.
- Advanced Movie Mode with Manual Exposure Control and Selectable Frame Rates
-
The EOS 7D offers the enhanced image quality, smooth frame rates and adaptive exposure compensation necessary in a professional movie-making tool. By shooting video with a large sensor camera, it's simple to take advantage of the image characteristics intrinsic to SLR photography and not necessarily to video cameras.
In addition to a number of different recording size and frame rate modes, the EOS 7D enables easy manual control of exposure, focus and Live View features and even allows for in-camera editing. The large CMOS sensor and compatibility with over 60 lenses provide a wealth of depth-of-field options. And it's all as easy as the press of a button - the EOS 7D has a dedicated Live View/Movie Recording lever with a start/stop button that gets the shooting started fast.
Full HD Video is captured at 1920 x 1080 resolution at 30p (29.97), 24p (23.976) or 25p frames per second, for up to 4GB per clip. Movies are saved as .MOV files and can be viewed in Full HD with HDMI output. Other recording sizes include HD at 1280 x 720 (50p / 60p (59.94) fps) or SD/VGA at 640 x 480 (50p / 60p (59.94) fps).
- Intelligent Viewfinder
-
The EOS 7D features a phenomenal redesigned viewfinder that not only offers 100 percent coverage, 1x magnification, a 29.4° angle of view and user-controlled dioptric adjustment; it also features a newly-designed transparent LCD display which enables a number of viewfinder displays to be overlaid at the touch of a button. Whereas with other cameras the representation of AF points and metering areas are static, with the EOS 7D, they can be displayed, adjusted and hidden, in camera, with ease. This means less distraction and more clarity to view the image in its entirety.
Display options include: grid, spot metering, AF points display, hide all, zone AF, spot (single-point) AF, AF point expansion and Dual Axis Electronic Level display. The EOS 7D also features a brilliant new Dual Axis Electronic Level and tilt display that aids in achieving perfectly level shots, displaying both roll and pitch in 1° increments, either in the viewfinder or on the LCD.
- New 19-Point, All Cross-Type AF System
-
Canon packed its most advanced technologies into the EOS 7D's AF system. With 19 high precision, cross-type AF sensors, any of which can be selected automatically or manually, the EOS 7D is equipped to handle even the trickiest of focus situations with ease. The high-speed microcomputers in the EOS 7D use advanced algorithms that help ensure the fastest, most accurate AF performance under the widest variety of conditions.
In addition, Canon's Light Source detection AF automatically compensates the focus by taking into account artificial lighting sources and making appropriate adjustments and the EOS 7D's new Intelligent Macro focusing tracks the object or the cameras movement when shooting close-up, to ensure focus is never lost. AF modes can be customized to suit the situation, ensuring reliable focus, every time.
- iFCL Metering with 63-Zone Dual-Layer Metering Sensor
-
The EOS 7D features a new, 63-zone dual-layer sensor designed to complement the 19-point AF system. By taking into account the color and luminosity surrounding chosen AF points, this new system delivers an entirely new level of accuracy for better results even in difficult lighting situations.
Since the metering sensor has a color measurement function, exposure errors and focus errors caused by different light sources are minimized; the EOS 7D gives stable exposure from shot to shot in situations where light changes, such as in a theater or concert hall. This makes the EOS 7D ideal for scenes with extreme difference in brightness such as brightly lit scenes or backlit scenes; the camera balances exposure of the main subject at the background, and exposures are not overly influenced by bright areas in the shot.
- Rugged, Durable, Dust and Weather Resistant Construction
- The EOS 7D is constructed of the highest quality materials, to exacting standards to ensure unfettered performance at all times. For example, the shutter can shoot at speeds up to 1/8000 sec for 150,000 cycles; the chassis is built of lightweight and rigid magnesium, and the camera's seals are built to resist water and dust.

I've upgraded to the 7D from Canons older, smaller model, the Canon XTi/400D. My other two considerations were the 5D mark II and the 50D. Considering the price, I think the 7D is actually the sweet spot, the Best Buy amongst all of those... More-so, it has features even the current 1D series doesn't.
1. Compared with the XTi/400D
The 7D trumps the older, cheaper 400D in almost all aspects. The 400D was a great little camera to learn photography with, but I can honestly say I outgrew it and needed some extra features (which the 7D delivered, it would turn out), especially as soon as I sold my first photo. It's no surprise really since the 7D is 2 and a half generations younger and 2 classes higher than it. Faster auto-focus and burst rate, bigger viewfinder, more "cropability", better ergonomics, live view, battery life, higher ISO possibilities, better general image quality... need I go on?
2. 7D vs the 50D
When I got to a point where I really needed to upgrade (and before the 7D came out), due to the fact my XTi started falling apart, this was the first camera I ran to. I waited for a friend to buy it and when he let me play with it a bit, what I got were mixed feelings. I'm glad I went with the 7D instead because of the better auto-focus and better image quality. The difference at higher ISO is noticeable. Not dramatic, but it's there. The question really stands - do you need the extra options the 7D provides for the extra money which could go towards another lens. For instance, I don't really need the movie mode of the 7D, but if that is something that's important to you, then the 50D, obviously, isn't worth it. If you shoot at lower ISO's, if you're more of a general hobby shooter, not shooting that much sport or wildlife, the 50D is still an awesome camera and I'd recommend it.
3. 5D mark 2 vs 7D
Well...this is a hard one. The 5D2 is also a camera I -almost- bought. There are many fronts on which these two cameras battle, but the full frame sensor is a factor you can't put into numbers. The extra width, more logical lens collection combos, even bigger viewfinder... and a slower and less accurate autofocus, slower burst rate... The 5D2 would be an awesome camera to pair up with the 7D, since they're both intended for a different market, if they were only matched in price. For me, it's not worth the difference, even though I shoot a lot of landscapes and portraits.
In conclusion, I'm delighted with my purchase and you may consider it highly recommended - by me :)

My wife raved for weeks about pictures she was viewing on Facebook that were posted by a number of photographers in Florida. She kept saying, and they shot these with a 7D and a 500 mm lens or a 7D and my (her) lens (the 100-400 mm f/4.5-5.6). I never get pictures like that. So, I bought her the camera and we've been using it for about 2 weeks...and she's still not getting photos "like that" and neither am I. But, that is mostly due to the lousy lighting conditions here in southwest Ohio as compared to those in central and southern Florida.
- Most useful or most welcome features for us so far are
-- 1.6x crop factor delivered by the sensor, which is smaller than what we have been shooting for the last 1-2 years (5D Mark II and 1D Mark IV). Coupled with my 300 mm f/2.8 and 2x extender II or 2x extender III, the subjects we shoot (hawks, owls, eagles, and many common birds) are significantly larger in the viewfinder and in the final photo.
-- New design of the autofocus sensors as well as the additional sensors available over the 5D Mark II and the accuracy of that focus (at least in good light) versus the 5D Mark II (not as good as the 1D Mark IV)
- Trade-offs versus 5D Mark II and 1D Mark IV are
-- Smaller sensor results in significantly more noise in dark subjects and in low-light or when using "higher" ISOs (even 500 and 640 are not nearly as good as the other two cameras)
-- Image quality at any ISO I've shot so far is not as good as the 5D Mark II or the 1D Mark IV in my humble opinion.
-- Extra magnification (crop factor) results in comparitively more shake when used with telephoto lenses; not only is the subject magnified, so are all movements of the user. (Hint: If you have any difficulty with image stability when hand-holding a telephoto lens, that "instability" will be significantly magnified when moving to a 1.6 crop factor sensor like that in the 7D.) If you already use a 1.6 crop-factor camera, you'll be right at home with the 7D.
Overall, my wife loves the camera for the autofocus sensors and even more so for the additional crop factor she gets with the 100-400 mm. I like it for the additional crop factor with my 300 f/2.8 and 1.4 or 1.6 extender, but I don't find the focusing or image quality to be on par with the 1D Mark IV. The 5D Mark II images are far superior as far as noise and overall color, but the 5D Mark II did/does have focusing issues.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
This is a replacement for a canon 40d. My first impression is that the menues and controls have been better thought out. This is likely the result of the many iterations between the 40d and 7d. So thanks to all of the consumer complaints, and thoughtful advise.
The speed is wonderful for sports photography, which is my primary use. Focusing appears to be greatly improved. I'm getting a much better percentage of usable shots.
White balance and exposure control appears to be as well. With much less automatic post processing.
The movie capabiltiy is also interesting but this will take a great deal of work to transition to. The LCD is not that easy to use for me as my sight is getting worse with age and fine manual focusing is tough. Even though the LCD screen is much improved.
Overall the feeling, functions, and controls are excellent and it would be difficult to imagine a significantly improved product with this sensor size and price point.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
Nothing that is not great with this camera. What helped me most was a DVD canon 7D crash course by Micheal Andrew.Everything about this camera is easy to use and navigate through all the settings once you learn about this camera. I recommend getting the video from Michael's web site. You won't be sorry.Still can't belive the fast focus great imagesand over all high preformance.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I'm late to the game jumping to the 7D. Was trying to hold out to see if they would release a MkII version, but then we scheduled a big trip to Italy this summer, and I wanted something with more resolution to make some big prints from photos of our trip. So far, I'm loving it! The extra focus points are great, as is the viewfinder and nice LCD screen. Live view is nice to have, as is the video capability.
Better low light performance with higher ISO was especially important for me for a lot of the work I do indoors without extra lighting. Perhaps it's not as nice as I had hoped for, but it's definitely a big improvement over the low light performance of my 30D.
I certainly don't regret getting this body this late in its life cycle, even if a new one gets announced later this year or next. I can't see that I will need an upgrade again for at least a few more generations.
Perhaps I'm just not used to all the extra resolution that I get from 18mp as opposed to the 8mp of my 30D, but I do find the RAW images do tend to be a bit software and flatter in general and need quite a bit more work in Lightroom or Photoshop... but, certainly not a problem for web stuff, only for big enlargements or cropping down to a small area of the original image. Still need some more practice with the 7D, though.

Handles way better than a 5D2. Exposure metering is also better. It is also a bit better at white balance.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I'm a field biologist and an enthusiastic amateur nature photographer. I wanted a robust upgrade from my Rebel XT. I've had this camera for a month and have been thrilled by the clarity, speed and functionality. Learning to navigate the buttons and menus was a bit of work but is now becoming very intuitive. This camera is significantly heavier from the lower series but it feels extremely well-equipped to head into the field. I'm thrilled that I went for the 7D instead of the 60D I was choosing between.

I bought this camera as a replacement for my Canon 20D that i used for many years I use it with a battery grip so the battery life is amazing I have never had a problem with low battery I also own a 5D II and use this one with its 1.6 crop to give me a little extra reach for my wildlife photography the high MP allows me to crop my pics and still keep them clean the built in level indicator is a great feature that allows you to check the level of your camera at the press of a button

Comments about Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I've upgraded from Canon 40D to 7D and boy is this upgrade worth it! The shots I can get indoors now are amazing! The colors in the 7D seem to have so much more pop to them too. I haven't even touched the video yet either so that is something I'm really looking forward to exploring. I'm doing my first wedding this weekend with the 7D and looking forward to it.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
As a filmmaker and photographer, my work demands equipment that can perform and last. The 7D fits this need perfectly.
The build quality is superb and the overall ergonomics of the camera are great. Plus it doesn't include that annoying little button at the top of the mode dial, like the 60D and 5D mk3.
Pair the body with some L lenses and you really can get some amazing images. Highly recommended for sports and action photography. As the super fast 8fps shooting speed will allow you to capture quick actions, and since it has a crop sensor it will add more range if you have EF Zoom lenses.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
I bought this camera as a step up from my Canon Rebel T1i because I need two cameras for a wedding I will be shooting. The camera has many more options for customization. It feels much better in my hands even though it is a bit heavier.The auto focus is a huge step up from the Rebel. That and the better performance at high ISO numbers (I can use it at ISO 2,500 and not be horrified at the results whereas I will only use ISO numbers up to ISO 800 with the Rebel.) were the deciding factors to go with this camera. So far, I am very happy with my choice.

This is an awesome camera. I do all sorts of photography and have loved using it for everything. It did take a day to get used to the 19 point focusing. But now have the hang of it and love it!

Comments about Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera (Body Only):
The Canon 7D, with respect to the purchase and shipping, all emerged without any problem, buy it online from my home country (Ecuador) and although it was outside the U.S., the product arrived within 3 days to a virtual box in Miami, very well packed and with all the necessary care, the camera comes ready to use.
