Canon 7D
Canon’s new semi-professional DSLR, the EOS 7D, has arrived on British shores and is available in shops. Far from being a mere replacement of the older Canon 5D, the new camera has a host of new features aimed to impress the serious enthusiast. Canon 7D’s spec sheet is truly impressive:
-
18MP APS-C CMOS sensor
8fps shooting
ISO range up to 12800
100% Viewfinder
19 cross-type AF points
Full HD movie
Magnesium alloy body with environmental protection
The Canon compares very favourably with the competition too. The main differences between the 7D and Nikon D300s are the better resolution of the Canon (18MP vs 12MP), wider ISO sensitivity on both ends of the range and higher quality Movie recording. The Nikon on the other hand offers better autofocus with more AF Areas and more memory options including SD and CF cards. Apart from that the 7D and D300s are very similar in terms of size, weight and functionality and the choice between them can be entirely based on personal preferences.
