Pros: Excellent camera body for action, excellent AF on almost the entire frame, customization from pro, ergonomic, excellent for those accustomed to 5D, double memory slot.
Cons: Sensor that accuses the years especially for dynamic range and video tightness (but it was not born for that). It is not a body buys and snaps, it must be set properly for every shooting condition. Very pro-oriented rather than prosumer-oriented, it grants few errors.
Opinion: After witnessing the production exit of the 77D and the same 7Dmkii I waited waiting for the hypothetical 7dmkiii. Given the release of the 90D, tested, I opted for a used 7dmkii, the 1.6x is convenient both for the focal length and the wallet. Of the 90D I was not satisfied with the AF (very similar to the 77D that I already own), and the decision to increase the density of the sensor against an increase in the performance of the iso seal; in my opinion a 7dmkii with a sensor of the 77D, but more performing with little light would have been the top, without considering that I always use the Canon 70-200 2.8 at TA and on the 77D already shows its limits in softness at 24 megapixels. To take advantage of the crop on 32 megapixels on apsc you must have the appropriate optics. Moving on to the 7dmkii I must say that at the beginning it did not convince me very much, as workability of the RAW I found the 77D better and more permissive. With the need to get the JPG ready I worked a lot on the photo style (I created some depending on the contexts and I uploaded to profile 1, 2 and 3), over and under exposure, focus options (quite complex, but if you have a 5dsr they are similar), customization of the WB; all I saved on positions C1, C2, C3 to have everything ready when needed. Now I am very happy with the result obtained. I read about the short battery life, I use little screen, very little, no stabilizer, but the AF of the 70-200 2.8 works constantly all the time and I make the machine generate the reduced JPG and I can shoot 1500-2000 shots before getting to the last notch. The sore button for me is the dynamic range more than the iso seal, let's say that up to 3200 iso does its job, above the noise there is, but unless you want to print large format does not give problems; the problem is the loss of chromatic detail in the midtones, in this aspect the 77D is better. Fantastic customization of the various buttons and selectors, customizations that are saved along with everything else in the "C" settings of the shooting mode selector. Another thing that made me choose compared to the 90D is the double slot for me fundamental, on the CF I keep the RAW and on the sd the JPG ready, otherwise double copy of the RAW. As for the construction is a 5D, solid, unaesthetic and not very useful flash pop up, but it has the advantage of being used as a Speedlite transmitter without removing flashes external to the scene. Unrivaled autofocus (if not 1dx mkii and mkiii, and R5), rarely misses a beat and also is a full frame af sensor mounted on APSC which offers a very extensive and detailed AF coverage. Fast shooting, silent mode. It obviously suffers on the other electronic features such as the absence of wi-fi that forces you to lose the sd slot to insert the transmitter. The eye proximity sensor is missing for turning off the screen that is not touch, defect only in case of video shooting because you can not directly select the focus. For the rest it has become my favorite machine for action. The exposure indicator to the right of the viewfinder is very useful for when using flashes such as fill in as you have the direct view of the over and under absolute exposure of the machine and the relative one of the flash light (selectable directly from the shortcut on the set button) so as to realize how far the flash deviates from the "zero" exposure of the scene; for normal use just the classic indicator placed under the viewfinder. The shutter bursts are customizable, so if in some cases 10fps is too much, you can lower them. Highly recommended for sport if combined with 70-200 2.8 also not stabilized that although a little soft, up to 20megapixel does not show excessive loss of resolution at TA. Really recommended. Convenient GPS for nature photography. |
