A Whole New Class of HD Camera.
With a host of brand new features
designed to enhance every facet of the
photographic process, from still images to
video, the new EOS 7D represents a whole new
class of camera.
Made to be the tool
of choice for serious photographers and
semi-professionals, the EOS 7D features an
all-new 18.0 Megapixel APS-C size CMOS
sensor and Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors,
capturing tremendous images at up to ISO
12800 and speeds of up to 8 fps. The EOS 7D
has a new all cross-type 19-point AF system
with improved AI Servo II AF subject
tracking and user-selectable AF area
selection modes for sharp focus no matter
the situation. The EOS 7D's Intelligent
Viewfinder, an entirely newly-designed
technology, provides approximately 100%
coverage and displays user-selected AF modes
as well as a spot metering circle and on
demand grid lines. New iFCL Metering with
63-zone dual-layer metering system uses both
focus and color information to provide
accurate exposure even in difficult
lighting. The EOS 7D also captures Full HD
video at 24p (23.976 fps) and 25p with an
array of manual controls, including manual
exposure during movie shooting and ISO speed
selection. The EOS 7D features a magnesium
alloy body that is dust- and
weather-resistant and shutter durability of
up to 150,000 cycles. Compatible with over
60 EF and EF-S lenses as well as with EOS
System accessories, the creative
opportunities - not just with stills but
also with video - are beyond amazement.
HD Dreams Come True.
Advanced movie mode with manual
exposure control and selectable PAL frame
rates: 1920 x 1080 (Full HD): 24fps
(23.976)/
25fps, 1280 x 720 (HD): 50fps, 640 x 480
(SD): 50p as well as NTSC. Boasting the most
advanced EOS movie capturing features to
date, the 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. By shooting video with a
large sensor camera, it's simple to take
advantage of the image characteristics
intrinsic to SLR photography and not
necessarily to video cameras. In addition to
a number of different recording size and
frame rate modes, the EOS 7D enables easy
manual control of exposure, focus and Live
View features and even allows for in-camera
editing. The large CMOS sensor and
compatibility with over 60 lenses provide a
wealth of depth-of-field options. And it's
all as easy as the press of a button — the
EOS 7D has a dedicated Live View/Movie
Recording lever with a start/stop button
that gets the shooting started fast.

Three Recording Sizes
Full HD Video is captured at 1920
x 1080 resolution at
25, 24p (23.976) or30p
(29.97)frames per second, for
up to 4GB per clip. Movies are saved as .MOV
files and can be viewed in Full HD with HDMI
output. Other recording sizes include HD at
1280 x 720 (50p/60p (59.94) fps) or SD/VGA
at 640 x 480 (50p/60p (59.94) fps).
