Pros: Fast af , crop, gps, two carts. Image quality

Cons: Weight, wifi

Opinion: This camera has a great learning curve the af section is very adjustubel but when you know your camera you got great results. 7d mark II is a camera designed for sports or nature photography. The autofocus module is excellent, responsive and highly customizable for different shooting conditions, but it is essential be studied well the manual dedicated to exploit their full potential. The body keeps the autofocus until f8 at the midpoint foam (cross) and this is a good opportunity for more. Reduced shutter lag and gusts up to 10 shots per second give the 7d mark II unmistakably sporty character, as well as very useful (especially for those without super tele in kit) is the crop in the room due to the format aps-c. Just sensor aps-c is the component that most characterizes this camera, from benefit (by multiplying the focal length of the lens) to the limit if you decide to shoot in low light and with very high sensitivity ISO. Also very usabel for macro and landscape. Also gps is nice specely on vacations so you cane see where you have been.

Pros: Speed af, silent burst.

Cons: In low light situations it is bad, you knead the files which is a pleasure.

Opinion: Taken to flank the 5d4, it is excellent only if you use it in affordable light situations, the 5d4 is on another planet. I use both bird reflexes and part of the af and the 10 frames for everything else I am not happy, it is a machine that suffers a lot from the absence of light and clearly the high iso, even with lenses such as the 600mm sofre anyway, I think I will sell it to take another FF to join the 5d4. Vote 5

Pros: Autofocus in general, burst, silent shot

Cons: ISO high yields in low light, autofocus conditions in complex background conditions

Opinion: I have been owning this camera for more than a year and that some "defects" I found I noticed them only by comparing it to a series 1. Perfect autofocus in optimal conditions, if it gets away with complex backgrounds if the subject occupies a good portion of frame. Perfect for birds where thanks to the apsc format allows you to portray subjects without getting too close. Silent shot that helps a lot with dodgy subjects, only real mole is the high iso yield that clearly can not be that of a ff like the series 5. The customizable burst of up to 10 fps is another ace in the machine of a light body and that has a correct price for its qualities. In my opinion a very good room, grade 9

Pros: Pro body, burst, AF, customization possibilities and very wide settings,great LV with dual pixel

Cons: Battery life a little poor, image quality at high ISO

Opinion: I've been sifting through this reflex from top to bottom over the last few months, at body/grip level it's really great, nothing even see with the series 6, which I own. The menus are very complete and relatively simple, you can customize pretty much everything to your liking, both in terms of functions and keys. The AF on moving subjects is good, great, maybe not mind-blowing nowadays with some ML doing better, but at other prices. I had a couple of chances to test it relatively on Motocross and drift cars, trackside, so AF difficulties at high levels and performed very well. Of course you have to learn a little to use it and to "help" it in complicated situations, you can not expect that photographing "ad cazzum" you get excellent results. I noticed that, under specific conditions, it is very very important to find the right CASE of the AF to have good results. If you sect it all well, it's a great satisfaction. The gust is really extreme, in some cases even excessive if set to the maximum (10 fps), but you can rest easy, the menu gives you the ability to set the fps to your liking both on H(fast) burst, on normal burst and even on silent burst, so you can set 3 different values and quickly choose what you need at the moment without switching from the menus all the time. The blackout in the 10fps burst is not bad, you manage well to follow the subject, even better if you set the burst around 8fps. At the level of image quality I am satisfied in half, as far as colors is really good but as detail and sharpness image in general with long focals is fine, but I noticed that shooting at times of about 1/80 or 1/100 with a 50mm you often get micromosse images, it resolves easily raising the times to at least three times the focal. I think it's because of the vibrations in the mirror. This problem decreases as the focal lengths increase, so with a 200mm you don't need to shoot at 1/600 but just 1/400, which is twice the focal point, as on every aps-c. As for noise, I think it's good until 3200 ISO, 6400 ISO depends on light conditions, but they start to be a bit problematic. I l sight... a joy! Apart from the fact that at a 100% coverage and it is 1x, that the points of AF are pop-up and you can set whether to display them all or only those in use, if after you have made the af make them disappear or make them remain active, if you make them light up red etc etc in the crosshairs you can set a lot of functions, for example the level, miscellaneous alerts, display the mode in which you are shooting, display if we are in One Shot or Ai-servo, if you have active burst or single shot etc etc The Live View is a strong point of this machine, has a very good AF that recognizes the faces and follows them, it is almost as fast as the focus in the focus mode. The click noise is discreet, not too loud, if you set the silent shot becomes very very quiet, even if the blackout in both single shot and silent burst increases a lot and to me from a little bother especially in the burst. Overall I find it a great reflex with regard to the side of use experience (grip, feeling, customizations, viewfinder etc),as image quality still remains an APS-C, although high level, so it will not have that cleaning and image engraving that have the FF. I also own a 6D and I think that the two machines are completely complementary, indeed, I highly recommend this pairing, so you can have two bodies, one oriented more dynamic jerky, with factor of crop 1.6x and powerful burst and the other more for static shots but with more image quality and with definitely higher iso tightness.

Pros: Solid body, fast and quick af an entire dedicated menu.

Cons: The af system, holding high iso, battery life

Opinion: I have been waiting for the purchase of this machine since the first edition, now that I have it in my hands.... I am satisfied with this machine body. Arriving on 26 March 2020 I did some tests from the balcony and in the garden, with 300 f4, 50 f1.4, 70-200 f2.8 is and 24-105 f4 with related ext 2x and 1.4x. Let's start by saying that it is a machine born for the action and the menu entirely dedicated is proof of this. Perhaps a little too sophisticated but effective, to study and understand better. Fast burst with state-of-the-art cf. Very solid body that grips at its best. Unfortunately it lacks wifi but with dedicated card it solves the problem at the expense of the second slot sd. Coming from 60d, 80d and 6dmk2 I find uncomfortable the buttons on the left and the joystick that in the end is always accompanied by the use of the main dial, even the lack of touch and orientable screen is felt. But I think it's because the machine is semi-pro and entirely tropicalized. The files are light and very detailed, but if you want to croppare better do not use high iso, even do not raise the 1600 iso if possible. As already reported in other users the battery lasts little, I think it is due to the fact of the two processors and the fast burst. As I promised myself... finished the lock down period I immediately proceeded to sell it. There's never been a real feeling. I was a little disappointed.
