Capturing the Story,

From Stills to Video

’m taking advantage

of the EOS 7D’s

ability to create high

quality HD video

footage from my ‘still’

photography

camera. I

often con-

ducted

video inter-

views alongside my still

photography; I never

captured cinema vérité

footage simultaneously

because of the bulkiness

of the camera and the

disruption of switching

to another medium in

the middle of unfolding

events. The EOS 7D

allows for subtle and

seamless capture of

vérité footage when the

opportunity presents

itself. I am just begin-

ning to discover the

possibilities.”

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 neces-

sary in a professional movie making tool. Shooting video

with the EOS 7D increases flexibility for the photogra-

pher 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 pro-

fessional cameras on the market while outpacing every

camera in its class. Featuring a revamped 19-point high-

precision, 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 shoot-

ing 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.
