Superlative Image Quality
The EOS 7D features a superb, Canon designed, 18.0 Megapixel CMOS sensor that
incorporates a number of significant refinements to enhance the capture of each
image. Thanks to advanced, in-house semiconductor manufacturing, the EOS 7D�s
sensor has more pixels than any other APS-C sized sensor in the Canon lineup,
with less digital noise, a higher ISO sensitivity (up to 12800 in H mode) plus
a wider dynamic range than previously available. The EOS 7D employs a 14-bit
converter to process the output of the CMOS sensor for smooth tonal transitions,
natural gradations and striking color fidelity. The EOS 7D�s Dual DIGIC 4 Image
Processors help to ensure that images are captured, processed and saved with
remarkable speed � up to 8.0 frames per second.
Full HD Video Capture
EOS 7D does not just shoot video clips, it offers the enhanced image quality,
smooth frame rates and adaptive exposure compensation necessary in a professional
movie making tool. Shooting video with the EOS 7D increases flexibility for
the photographer by allowing full use of Canon�s EF and EF-S lenses, including
wide angle, macro, tilt-shift and fisheye, providing a wealth of depth-of-field
and other creative shooting options once reserved only for still photography.
By shooting video with a large sensor camera, it�s simple to take advantage
of the image quality and characteristics intrinsic to SLR photography. Combined
with its size, image quality and flexibility, the EOS 7D is an all-in-one image-capturing
tool.
Professional Level Performance
Capable of shooting up to 126 Large/JPEGs with a UDMA CF card at 8.0 fps, the
EOS 7D is a perfect camera for action. The EOS 7D is outfitted with a rugged,
rotary magnet shutter, which, aided by the Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors, ensures
instant response and performance on par with most professional cameras on the
market while outpacing every camera in its class. Featuring a revamped 19-point
highprecision, all cross-type AF point system with dedicated microprocessors,
the AF system helps to ensure the fastest, most accurate AF under a wide variety
of shooting conditions. The EOS 7D also has a broad range of ISO settings, up
to ISO 12800 in H mode, for finely-detailed dawn-to-dusk shooting. RAW images
are recorded at 14 bits so that processed 16-bit TIFF images contain the full
range of tonal values.
