Simply Superb
on April 1, 2011
Posted by: AV
This camera is just awesome for video. The dynamic range in the highlights could have been better. Also audio controls are much needed. Nothing beats the 7D in ergonomics.
Pros: good battery life, Nice features/settings, Quick Start-up time, excellent image quality, Superior build quality, Bright LCD, Solid Operation, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
Cons: noisy, Heavy/Bulky
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had this camera for about a year now. If you feel that you need to go on up to a higher priced Canon camera, I can't imagine why. Other than for the megapixels. 18 megapixels is plenty for me when I am printing a photo of 8 1/2x11. I know I can print larger but give me money for a bigger printer and I will be glad too. I can't find a thing wrong with this camera and I am a avid photographer. I use my camera for my art and teaching photography for kids. It's quick and ready for any situation. I have the battery pack and get over 1200 shots with and without the flash. It's a little heavy for the kids but did get a strap that is easier around the neck feel. If your a beginner photographer and going to an SLR, this may have too much bells and whistles but hey you wont be disappointed either. I'm not big on the video side of the camera and have used it a few times but being a photographer, Well, it's kind of like having a microwave in the car. I just can't seem to get excited about that side of the camera. Yea, glad it's there but not had a use for it yet. Live view has been a help since I have had two back surgeries but it does seem to use up the battery juice quicker. If I had one thing to add would have probably been a rotating view lcd. That is it. I love it and will recommend it!!!
Pros: good battery life, excellent image quality, Superior build quality, Solid Operation

Cajuns 7D
on June 2, 2012

Hello I'am Cajun, I have nothing but good to say about my New Canon EOS 7D. I shoot everyday and have not had any problems with my camera. In just over two months I have shot 12,000 plus images and remain error/problem free. I shoot mostly Manual Mode and love it. I had a slight Flash issue where a shadow was being cast by my Lens Hood but have corrected that by using a flash modifier to fill the shadow. If you decide on the 7D then be sure to read the owners manual page by page with you camera in hand to learn about all the cool features. Have fun and good luck shooting. Cajun
Pros: good battery life, quiet, Nice features/settings, Quick Start-up time, excellent image quality, Superior build quality, Bright LCD, Solid Operation, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
Cons: neck strap is a little on the short side for me

Great Camera
on August 10, 2010
Posted by: Oglebooger
from Lebanon, TN
A great camera. The quality and performance live up to the name. Unfortunately the lens in the kit is somewhat sloppy. It creeps to the zoom settings when hanging around your neck. I see movement in the viewfinder when it is focusing. Despite keeping the camera very clean dirt has appeared inside the lens. This is my first Cannon and I will buy Cannon again when the time comes.
Pros: exceptional color/ quality
Cons: kit lens could be better quality.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Decided to "Leap Frog" cameras
on February 10, 2011

from Atlanta, GA
mid/late 80's), purchased my 1st Canon,( F1 Body). Later got an AE1. My 1st digital (2005) was a PowerShot S2 IS. (LOVE IT. Still have it) Decided to go for a DSLR, Researched for appx. 3 mos. October 2010 got a fair deal on a 7D 2 lens kit. This camera is "the cats meow" ! The ONLY bad pics, my fault. Bit of a learning curve, but what a blast! The 2 kit lenses, 28-135mm & 70-300mm, both Zoom, IS, & USM seem better than average.But shopping for a wider/faster.
Pros: quiet, Nice features/settings, Quick Start-up time, excellent image quality, Superior build quality, Bright LCD, Solid Operation, Simple controls/menu
