Pictures and Specifications of the Canon EOS 7D | neutralday
Well, here it is, one step closer to being official. The Canon EOS 7D making another appearance, as in leaked, in of course a Chinese forum. Not only do we get a decidedly good look at the camera (and 3 new lenses, an EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS, and an EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS, and an EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM Macro), but we also have the specification rundown. Since I’m assuming we don’t all speak Chinese, the highlights include:* 18 megapixels
* Dual DiG!C 4 imaging processors, 14-bit A/D signal conversion
* 8 FPS (94 Large/Fine JPEGS or 15 RAW)
* 19 points cross type AF sensors. Eight-directional double cross central AF point
* ISO 100-6400, extends to 12800
* 100% coverage, 1.0x optical viewfinder with intelligent display, with electronic horizon line.
* 3.0? LCD, 920,000 dot resolution, 160 degree viewing angle
* New iFCL meter system using high contrast and color detection (63-zone)
* Newly-designed streamlined body, metallic shutter sound, shutter lifespan approx. 150,000 times
* HD movie, HDMI out, external mic input
* EOS Integrated Dust Removal system
* Live view with Face-priority AF
* Auto Lighting Optimizer
* Auto correction of lens peripheral illumination (vignetting)
* New switch for Live View/Video mode
* New 24mm wide-angle built-in flash supporting EOS E-TTL IINo additional clarity on the sensor size, though I think we should assume the 1.6x APS-C as the most likely reality. The marketing approach so far appears to rely on the higher resolution and speed of the 7D over the D300s. I can only hope that Canon has made some advances with their sensor technology to justify putting 18 megapixels on an APS-C sensor. We shall see.
