Canon EOS 7D Mark II

The Canon EOS 7D Mark II is the APS-C DSLR with which Canon aimed at sport and wildlife: a 22.4 × 15.0 mm CMOS sensor with 20.2 megapixels, dual DIGIC 6 processors and 10 fps bursts. The optical viewfinder covers 100 % at 1.0x, and the body, sealed against dust and water to EOS-1N standards, weighs 910 g at 148.6 × 112.4 × 78.2 mm. Its sensor carries a 1.6x crop factor, so telephoto lenses reach further.

Autofocus brings 65 points, all cross-type, with a dual-cross centre point at f/2.8 and sensitivity down to −3 EV; ISO runs from 100 to 16000, expandable to 51,200. It records Full HD at 60p with Dual Pixel AF in Live View, the shutter covers 30 s to 1/8000 s, the fixed 3-inch screen offers 1,040,000 dots, and storage pairs a CompactFlash Type I slot with an SD UHS-I one. The LP-E6N battery is rated for around 670 shots per charge, and there is no Wi-Fi inside the body: Canon sold the W-E1 adapter separately.

Its ground is wildlife, sport, action and demanding reportage, where sustained bursts, sealing and a 65-point system make the difference against a mid-range DSLR. The finder allows dioptre correction from −3 to +1. It arrived as the successor to the Canon EOS 7D of 2009, and Canon put it on sale on 15 September 2014 at $1,799 for the body.
