After using the 70D and being able to tap my focus point on the screen while shooting, I want it on every HDSLR from here on out. The only thing I missed is the touchscreen AF point selection on the 70D. Dual Pixel AF worked great on the Canon 70D and it performs just as well on the 7D Mark II. The addition of the Dual Pixel AF to the 7D Mark II makes it probably the most formidable Canon HDSLR on the market (aside from the $8k Canon 1D C).

It is not groundbreaking however, it is significant enough to be a stand-out feature for this upgrade. Overall, I am please with the jump in image quality from the prior generation. I don’t have direct comparisons with the 7D however, I shot many frames with the 7D and feel that the dynamic range is also improved.

The difference in quality are apparent in low-light and high ISO images. It is an obvious jump in quality compared to the 18MP sensor in the original 7D. The new 20.2MP sensor in the 7D Mark II delivers impressive image quality, particularly for an APS-C sensor. New 20.2MP APS-C CMOS Sensor with Dual Pixel AF Additionally, the 7D Mark II offers an improved shutter life rating up to 200,000 actuations – up from 150,000 on the original. While the 7D delivered an impressive 8fps, the 7D Mark II dials that up to 10fps with AF tracking for a true sports shooter’s camera. I’m not going to run down the entire spec sheet of the 7D Mark II however, there are several important features on the 7D Mark II that work together to produce a solid camera system. The 7D Mark II takes these features from its predecessor and dials them up a notch, along with improving an already-solid AF system and significantly better image quality. The video features of the original 7D were also improved over the 5D Mark II with a more thought-out feature set from the launch. The original Canon 7D filled a niche as a prosumer-grade sports and action camera with some interesting new features like linking AF-points to camera orientation.

However, once you start to dig into the camera and use it, you begin to peel back layer after layer of new and improved features and functionality that demonstrate just how serious of a camera the 7D Mark II wants to be. The 7D Mark II continues that trend at first blush. Over the years, Canon seemed to grow increasingly conservative in the delivery of new products and did very little to impress any of us with outlandish specifications and features.

  • While there is no one feature that is a “Wow!” factor when you look at the Canon 7D Mark II’s spec sheet, all of the little things start to add up for a solid-performing camera born from the pedigree of the original Canon 7D. I have used the camera for a couple of months and have been very impressed with most aspects of the camera. It has been a hot topic of discussion since it was first announced and initial impressions of the camera have been very positive. The Canon 7D Mark II is going to sit on the APS-C throne for Canon over next few years.
