Canon 18.0 Megapixel EOS 7D Digital SLR Camera With EF-S 18-135mm IS Lens, Model EOS7D18135KIT
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 30p (29.97 fps), 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.
Features:
- Maximum resolution for any application
The EOS 7D features a Canon-designed 18.0 Megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor
that captures such a high level of resolution it's easy to crop images for
enlargement without concern of losing detail. A major factor in reducing noise,
the CMOS sensor assures that images shot at highest sensitivity will be remarkably
smooth. Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors ensure that images are captured, processed
and saved with remarkable speed. The EOS 7D's ability to capture and process
data of images shot at 18.0 Megapixels at 8 fps, as well as Face Detection
Live Mode, Full HD video recording, Auto Lighting Optimizer and Lens Peripheral
optimization are all possible thanks to the Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors
- Low Light Excellence
With a broad range of ISO settings, the EOS 7D enables shooting from dawn
through dusk and ensures capture of the finest detail. With enhanced, low-noise
high-sensitivity optimization, shooting in situations previously possible
only with flash becomes as simple as point and shoot
- The Speed You Need
Capable of shooting up to 126 Large/JPEGs with a UDMA CF card and 15 RAW at
8 fps, the EOS 7D is a perfect camera for action. Canon's remarkable shutter,
combined with speedy, sophisticated electronics, ensures instant response
and performance. A rapidly-occurring scene can be captured moment by moment,
second by second, so that even the briefest of opportunities are captured
in perfect clarity
- HD Dreams Come True
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
- Spectacular eye-level view
The EOS 7D features a phenomenal redesigned viewfinder that not only offers
an approximate 100 percent coverage, 1x magnification, a 29.4? angle of view
and user-controlled dioptric adjustment, it also features a newly-designed
transparent LCD display which enables a number of viewfinder displays to be
overlaid at the touch of a button. Whereas with other cameras the representation
of AF points and metering areas are static, with the EOS 7D, they can be displayed,
adjusted and hidden, in camera, with ease
- Faster, More Accurate AF
Canon packed its most advanced technologies into the EOS 7D's AF system. With
19 high-precision, cross-type AF sensors, any of which can be selected automatically
or manually, the EOS 7D is equipped to handle even the trickiest of focus
situations with ease. The high-speed microcomputers in the EOS 7D use advanced
algorithms that help ensure the fastest, most accurate AF performance under
the widest variety of conditions
- More Information Ensures Accurate Exposure
The EOS 7D features a new, 63 zone dual-layer sensor designed to complement
the 19-point AF system. By taking into account the color and luminosity surrounding
chosen AF points, this new system delivers an entirely new level of accuracy
for better results even in difficult lighting situations. Since the metering
sensor has a color measurement function, exposure errors and focus errors
caused by different light sources are minimized; the EOS 7D gives stable exposure
from shot to shot in situations where light changes, such as in a theater
or concert hall
