      Don't get it wet, or dusty, or sandy. Or want low light capabilities. Or plan on taking a lot of shots in one go. Do you remember why you didn't upgrade to the 90D? Well they are the same reasons to leave this well alone. The great autofocus doesn't outway the rest.

      The r7 has great weather sealing and as for the buffer, idk I’m consistently getting almost double of what I got from my 7D which was about 22/24 shots. With the r7 I get 40/42 shots and that’s while shooting in RAW with a UHS-I card. I think it’s a great upgrade.

    Great review (and great footage!)…I’m not sure a $2k (Canadian) body only should be classified as “entry level”, which I’ve heard in a few reviews. Not sure if its how these cameras get reviewed now, or how the R3-R6 pricing has skewed our perception, but I don’t know too many people running out to spend $2k on a casual camera anymore. The R7 is truly aimed at those of us who have been waiting for an APS-C “complete package” Canon camera for wildlife, sports, travel, or just all-around. Well done Canon…can’t wait to get my hands on one!

    That was a good passionate review. I shoot the R6 right now, mostly wildlife, and I have been waiting for the R7 for quite a while. The 7Dii was one of my favorite crop sensor cameras. In wildlife photography you can never have too much reach, so a cropped 32MP image will serve my needs much better than the cropped 8MP I get from the R6. Also look forward to the improved AF tracking. The R6 does great with fast primes, such as the 500F4, but struggles with an RF600 or the new RF100-400. The RF100-500 does a bit better, but at F7.1 it’s not optimal. Birds in flight are one of the ultimate challenges. I look forward to putting the R7 through its paces.

  • @rreichar1
    @rreichar1 2 года назад

    I do a lot of bird photography with an R6 and the RF 100-500mm. The lens is a bit short for smaller birds so I am excited about the R7. I did pre-order one primarily for the additional reach and the ability to put more megapixels on the subject. My 100-500mm will be equivalent 160-800mm. My typical workflow includes the Topaz suite so I am not especially worried about noise. Yesterday while shooting birds here in central Texas my R6 overheated. I was shooting stills only so it still worked but no video available and the entire camera seemed to slow down. That slowdown may have been my imagination but it seemed real at the time. Temp was in the high 90s but I was in the shade almost the entire time. I would have been willing to pay more for a similar camera with a better EVF and buffer. As it is I am willing to give up a little on the EVF and buffer. This could be a decently small and light package with the RF 100-400mm.

    This camera would be very appealing to someone who already has an R5 or R6 with a few RF lenses and is looking for an APSC backup camera. As an only camera setup though, the lack of dedicated APSC RF lenses makes it dead on arrival as nobody shopping for a camera in this price range is looking to shell out cash for lenses that cost more than the body itself.

    • @beniyov
      @beniyov 2 года назад +2

      well there are options, especially for video shooters, to adapt great lenses. sigma 18-35mm f1.8 + variable nd filter adapter and/or sigma 50-100 f1.8, tamron 18-400 and a few other lenses for full frame like 20mm f1.4 just to name a few. and the rf lenses are awesome aswell but as you pointed out the negative to them is their price.
      still in my opinion not dead on arrival at all. also apsc is often used to get "free" additional reach for sports and wildlife.

    So I have time to have a coffee while the buffer clears, well that's a plus point :)
    It's not a brand new sensor - you've got it wrong. Canon admit that it is the sensor from the 90D but they say they've made some tweeks.
    Really clean up to 1600 ISO? - you mean just like the 90D. Could that be because it has the same sensor? Just asking
    The problem isn't lenses - all the RF and EF lenses fit and work.
    The real problem is that the R7 is a replacement for the 90D and we were all waiting for the replacement for the 7D mk2.
    1. Weather Sealing - not as good as the 7D Mk2
    2. Hits the buffer at 1 second, clears around the 12 second mark.
    3. The sensor is not one of the new higher ISO sensors.
    That's their problem. They just delivered a camera that the wildlife community doesn't want. It's is Canon's version of Microsoft's Vista.

    • @learningcameras
      @learningcameras  2 года назад

      During our press conference, they elaborated that it was not the same sensor as the 90D. Now, whether they were exaggerating that claim or not remains a mystery for sure. Weather sealing is also like the 90D. I absolutely agree this is a 90D update which is why I compared it to the 90D way more than the 7D but it's also $300 cheaper than the 7D2 at launch not adjusting for inflation so they priced it like a 90D update. But as a 90D update, it's really impressive but if you want a new 7D update, first of all it would have been more expensive and the R7 will seem underwhelming for some things

    I find it interesting that this review, along with three others I have watched point this camera to being a great backup for the R5. And you were all in Orlando for Canon sponsored unveiling tour. Is this something Canon planted in your heads or is it possible, just possible, this camera can and will be the main and everyday shooter for a lot of users? As Dan points out, it has the insides (sensor excluded) of the R3. I might add the R5 and R6 both have the dreaded 30 minute video time limit whilst the R7 has unlimited video time as long as you have enough card space and battery power. The relocation of the wheel on the back is no big deal. I'm old enough to recall the introduction of the larger wheel on the back of the Canon cameras and it was odd then, but we all got used to it and that wheel became a fixture on every EOS body. Sometimes change is difficult, because we all get in a comfort zone.

    Would love a comparison of R7 with R6 for a casual wildlife photography enthusiast (if that’s even a thing!). Also, would love to understand the total cost of ownership with recommended canon and 3rd party lenses for each of these bodies. Curious about what body + lens combos makes best sense for someone who wants to use this as a primary camera (like for birthdays, family trips, weekend getaways, kids sports, kids portraits, fall photography, etc.) along with wildlife/sports oriented trip like birding, safaris, skiing, racing, etc. So hard to find this kind of a comparison online and I suspect this is the market Canon is targeting with the R7 and R6 (albeit for a more serious enthusiast).

      But what neither Nikon nor Sony have is a range of lenses for people with less money. The 100-400 mm is very interesting for wildlife shooters like me, the price is really hot.

      E shutter on the R7 should work fine in that situation. The light bulbs are probably good enough that you won't see much banding and there isn't really fast action or panning shots. A lot of wedding reception venues we shoot at though use decorative lights with horrible bulbs that flicker like crazy so those give us issues with E shutter.

      Early speculation is that the camera lacks certain tell tale signs that would indicate a battery grip. The door doesn't look as though it was made to be able to be removed, and the mounting holes are not present. Its not been discussed much in these early videos, I think because in some cases they were using pre-production models. But, Gordons' video gives us a pretty good look at it, and there is no lever to pop it off (again though, I think it was a pre-production model). I'm not going to say it is not going to happen, but right now I'm pretty convinced its not, and if/when that news is confirmed its going to be the thing people blow up over this time. But whatevs. Would be dumb to omit that though.

    Please confirm if the R7 has multiple custom modes for video like the R5 (and unlike the R6). Also, please test it with the EF-S 10-18mm F/4.5-5.6 since there's nothing that wide in RF yet except the full-frame 16mm F/2.8. Thanks.

    Please review this camera with the RF 16mm f 2.8. I have the RP presently (I'll probably be keeping it), and am looking for an update to my 70D which I use for anything that moves fast. I have the lens already and it works well on the RP, but I would like to see how the R7 handles it, compared to perhaps the R6 (I'm deciding between the R6 &R7). I'll have to sell the RP if I get the R6.

      It's not the mirrorless version of the 7d series, if it was the weather resistance wouldn't be that of a 90d and the button placement would be the same as the R5 and R6. I for one who have two 7d's that I've thrown about, used well beyond the shutter life and still going am really quite disappointed. I was hoping for a R5 even R3 light version like the 7d mkii was a 1DX light.

    • @learningcameras
      @learningcameras  2 года назад +1

      I really don't think it's a 7D Mark II update honestly. The 7DII successor should have had R5 (or at least R6) level hardware, a top screen, massive weather sealing, battery grips, and a pro level viewfinder. The 7DII was basically an APSC 5D but the R7 isn't an APSC R5. But thankfully Canon didn't cripple the software of the R7 so it's a really powerful camera

    • @donk8292
      @donk8292 2 года назад +1

      I think as others have mentioned, the hardware, build quality, size, weather sealing are not the pro level that the 7D II was. In terms of the software - the AF, FPS, eye and subject detection, it should be a huge upgrade. I think ultimately Canon has realized - as perhaps Nikon realized as well, that a pro level APS-C just can't attract enough buyers. Which would explain why no 7D III and no successor to the NIkon D500 as well. So we get a lower, enthusiast level rather than pro level, camera that should still satisfy a large number of bird and wildlife enthusiasts due to it's AF system that is basically from the $6000 R3, but for $1000 less than if it was a true pro level body.

  • @stanimal8
    @stanimal8 2 года назад

    While I like most of the features of the R7, with video and AF near the top of my list, and how its performance might improve further with the use of a .71X focal reducer (wider field of view, greater light gathering = lower noise, and shallower DOF using "full-frame" lenses). One of my main concern is the the low res EVF, with only 2.36M dots. I tried using the R6, and wasn't thrilled with its 3.69M dot ETF. The R5's 5.76M dot EVF looked more natural.

      So Nikon has a few APSC cameras but they aren't amazing and the lens selection is limited. The Canon R7 is my favorite right now if you can deal with a more limited lens selection. So if you're mostly going to be using the kit lens and maybe adding more in the future, the Canon R7 is the way to go. Another cheaper option is the Fujifilm XT30 www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1662378-REG/fujifilm_16759732_x_t30_ii_mirrorless_digital.html/BI/19484/KBID/11716/DFF/d10-v21-t1-x1136461/SID/DFF

      So far I have not seen a sub $4000 camera with a stacked cmos sensor so I wasn't expecting that. Sony would probably be the first to implement that. I'm curious about the adapter as well. Canon didn't have an answer on that question. The EVF isn't amazing but it's not bad enough to not buy it. I think the hardware of this camera is slightly below the 7D but the price is lower as well. I think the 7D2 originally cost 1799 and that was a while ago

    My first Canon camera was the original 7D and when the 90D came out, I switched over to that one. What I dislike about the 90D is the buffer... so I'm pretty sad that the R7 doesn't have a better buffer. I mostly take photos of dogs, so I need to do a burst for a bit of time at once to capture the proper movement. But that Canon mirrorless eye tracking and focus is really something I want to jump on to... we'll see if the R7 is the one...

Will it be a big difference between the R7 and R10 for me? I don't care about the dual slot memory. Does the increase in MP and IBIS justify the 50% price increase of 500$?

    • @learningcameras
      @learningcameras  2 года назад

      Hey! So the extra MP doesn't mean much and if the lens your using has image stabilization, you will be fine without IBIS. But the R7 does have better weather sealing, it's a larger grip which might be better with a 100-400, and the viewfinder is larger and better so there are a few hardware improvements as well.
