Designed for pros and semi-pros alike, the Canon EOS 7D SLR Digital Camera with EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit is a high-performance camera 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.
The included Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens is a lightweight, compact all-purpose "standard" zoom lens that has been designed specifically for digital photography. Ideal for travel, mid-range nature/wildlife and general photography, the lens is equivalent to a 29-216mm lens in 35mm format. It features Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology, which provides up to a 4-stop compensation for image blur caused by camera shake and slow shutter speeds.
- 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.
- Included Lens
- The included Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens is a lightweight, compact zoom lens with a 35mm format equivalent of 29-216mm. It features Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology, which provides up to a 4-stop compensation for image blur caused by camera shake and slow shutter speeds.

I am a professional videographer who has been using the Panasonic DVX/ HVX for several years. I waited a long time to purchase a new camera that is keeping up with the times and I finally went with the Canon 7D because of price and performance. I have been very happy with the cameras capabilities, dynamic quality and overall performance. I first used the camera on a vacation and thought it was funny how often I saw other tourists with this camera around their necks. Then when I returned to the world, I have used it for photo shoots as well as short films and even a friends wedding. I also keep seeing other small groups of filmmakers around town filming with this camera, including lame TMZ paparazzi types in Los Angeles. From tourists, to filmmakers, to evil paps, this camera is EVERYWHERE; for good reason too.
While it took me getting used to handling a DSLR camera for shooting video, I have gotten a pretty good feel for it with lots of practice and have been challenged with learning alot more about photography and cinematography because of it. I enjoy the wide 18mm lens and the 135mm offers a nice depth of field. My next purchase will ultimately be a 2.8 mid-range lens. I already had a nice Canon 2.8/ 70-200mm lens which performs great with the 7D. The 60fps is a thing of beauty and along with the steep price difference, this also made me choose the 7D over the 5D. Hands down, the 7D wins for the value ratio of cost/ performance. I also say that for shooting video, having the wider 18-135mm lens is worth the little extra money for a great everyday use lens. The 28-135 lens was okay, but that extra touch of wide made it feel more familiar to my work with using pro-video cameras like the DVX/ HVX. While I have external mics to use, I am also very impressed with the on-board mic. But beware that it will pick up camera operation noises, such as focus/ zooming/ adjusting the dials.
The only real negative issue I am experiencing is not with the camera, but is with editing on my modest computer that I have been using without issues for my previous video footage for nearly 4 years. My 2007 Macbook and Final Cut Pro 6 isn't up to speed with what this camera's hi-def video can do. While I saved alot of money on a great camera that I will continue to use for photography and indie filmmaking, I will need to get a new Mac Pro computer and Final Cut Pro 7. This is where it gets expensive, but in order to have a proper work flow with all the bells and whistles to handle the massive hi quality video, you'll need this to get the best result for the cameras capabilities on a Mac. The hardware & software upgrade is needed for the changing times and codecs and video cards, etc. to handle the hi-def information. That's just part of evolution I suppose. I'm happy about the cost of the 7D, but being a slave to Mac prices and constant upgrades can bite me.
Overall, I'm blown away by this camera. But do remember, it is a photography camera first and a video camera second. Hard swish panning and hard rack zooms do cause a bit of video disturbance if you're rough with handling it. I did use it on my old Glidecam and a Jib arm crane with great results. Beware of the accessories you'll want to get the moment you start playing with it from shoulder mounts and a very necessary eye loop for the LCD screen. I also found a 2nd battery to be absolutely needed and at least a Lexar 16GB CF card for shooting alot of video. Instead of buying more expensive CF cards, i bought a portable LaCie Rugged 500Gb hard drive to dump footage on with a USB Lexar card reader which takes about 18 mins to transfer 16Gb of video footage. The 16Gb amounts to about 50mins of hi-def video footage. Hope that was useful! Cheers and happy shooting.

Purchased this camera a week ago for a nonprofit interview series---had five shoots in five days, lasting around 3 to 4 hours each. After about two hours of continuous use, the camera began to flash a red thermometer and even automatically closed the aperture all the way down for no apparent reason. At the end of one longer shoot day, the camera also produced 4 corrupt files that I could not open on my computer, presumably related to the overheating problem.
These problems, in conjunction with the fact that you can only record 4gb/12 minute video files at a time, make this a less than optimal video machine. I have the camera outfitted with a hoodloope, a zoom h4n for audio recording, and some various clamps and holders for stabilization. The image quality is fantastic, and the fact that I can so easily switch between SLR still shooting and HD video shooting is exceptionally convenient. I used this to shoot portraits of my interviewees as well as interviews, and both sets of images look great in decent lighting conditions. The overheating generally took sustained use over several hours, and can be managed by powering down for a few minutes.
Even so, anyone considering this camera for serious video use should be aware of the difficulties and quirks yet to be fully worked out. It shoots in h.264, which is not a good codec for FCP or Adobe Premiere, demanding ANOTHER post production step of transcoding.
I think the camera is worth it---I find the shallow depth of field produced by the Canon lenses extremely attractive. But know that making this work for video production takes a lot of extra effort.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit:
This camera is worth every dollar, It's all that I expected. The lens that came with the kit is not bad for a startup. As much as I love the camera I feel that the lens that came in the kit does not compliment it. If you are considering this camera & you are stepping up from a lower model DSLR camera, you may want to buy the body only and choose a better lens. If you are an experienced DSLR enthusiest as I am, this is a great camera.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit:
Beyond expectations
Features from the simple to the sublime. Ease of use right out of the box with months ahead to learn how to best use the new world of features this camera has presented to me. My migration from an Eos 20D to the 7D is a fascinating journey. Burst mode awesome for action shots, 18MB images have awesome detail. As a primary use is outdoor and nature photos, the ruggedness of this camera is very reassuring. Battery life is a bit limited, found cheap aftermarket batteries, but after learning, opted for the real Canon one. May buy the big grip as well.
I own very nice Canon Vixia Video rig, so not planning to use the video aspects except for casual documentation, just as I use the still features in the video camera.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit:
I have only had this camera for a little over a week and have shot over 500 pictures including wildlife and I am thoroughly enjoying it! It produces great shots for digital display and prints. I have found it very easy to use and intuitive. I just upgraded from a film camera I had been shooting with for 30 years and I am loving my new Canon. Auto focus is fast and great unless there is a lot of foreground interference, in which case the manual focus works just fine. I can't wait to use it for portraits. I haven't found anything I don't like about it yet. I am still learning when to override it in order to get optimum exposure over a long distance with wildlife, but that is my issue, not the equipment.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit:
I'm a videographer who needed some great stills to use for advertisement images on my website. I also needed a third video camera that would give me a shallow depth of field to contrast my JVC GYM700.
I have been completely satisfied. My only hope is that one day they will make the same camera with a manual gain input for an external mic. Right now, all audio for video must be handled externally, but that's OK for now... I mean...if it had that feature every videographer on the planet would be trying to buy the 7D and Cannon probably couldn't make enough. I'm sure they wouldn't want that. :)
Be sure to get the "Blue Crane Digital: Introduction to the Cannon 7D, vol. 1" DVD. It is very well done and a must have if you're learning to use a DSLR camera for the first time.

This camera has been used for a professional filmed PSA, and will be used for a documentary for a non-profit group. There will also be uses for an upcoming Tranracial Film Festival.
This camera gives you the opportunity to reach all levels if filming, yet it can be simple enough like a point and shoot.
Like any product there are limitations, but when you are buying a camera at this level you should know what they are and determine if this is the right match.

Comments about Canon EOS 7D Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit:
This camera replaced a 6-year-old Canon Digital Rebel XT (so anything new would have been a step up. However, this camera is amazing. The controls are somewhat different but similar enough (being another Canon product) that it's not difficult to pick up. The pictures are fantastic. Highly recommend this camera.
