The editors didn't like
Slightly soft initial video footage
No Movie Servo AF shooting 60p
Nonarticulating/Nontouch LCD screen
Priced as high as some full-frame cameras. Video capability doesn't match that of lower-priced rivals. More noise in high-ISO/low-light conditions than from Canon's own
Cheaper 70D
Fixed rear screen
1080p video only
Only 20.2MP resolution
No tilting or articulated display makes shooting video without a rig annoying
And it lacks built-in Wi-Fi
Costs $100 more than the original 7D
Zoom button moved to a less convenient location
60fps for video lacks 'AllI' compression and continuous autofocus
Still suffers from noticeable noise in high ISOs (though improved)
Has none of competing videospecif
No WiFi
Nothing done from Canon to be the disruptive camera company that they were many years ago
Pricey. Lacks built-in Wi-Fi. Fixed rear LCD. Servo AF unavailable when shooting at 1080p60
Operation of the AF system has a steep learning curve
On paper, at least, the EOS 7D Mark II is likely to satisfy some upgraders. But, if you already have an EOS 7D that does everything you need, we don't think the new camera provides a compelling reason to change.The differences between 18 and 20.2 megapixe...

Abstract: It's finally here. The Canon 7D Mark II, probably the most anticipated, rumoured, speculated-about camera in years, is ready to make its debut. It's been five years since the original 7D hit shelves in 2009, so you better believe the expectations are high...

Fast shutter, Fast focus
Fixed screen position
In many ways, Canon's EOS 7D Mark II is a typical replacement model to the original: it's faster, has more processing power, and it brings forth tweaks to the body and feature-set that make it a better product overall. If speed is your major concern, then...
Fast 10 fps continuous shooting with large buffer - Ultra-fast autofocusing system with 65 cross-type AF points - Crop-frame camera giving more reach with telephoto lenses
No built-in Wi-Fi No touchscreen or tilting LCD
On the used market, the EOS 7D Mark II is available for around $470-560 / £490-520 body only so very good value. However, you might have to search around for a good condition sample. Image credit Callum McInerney-Riley The Canon EOS 7D Mark II adds some...
10fps continuous shooting, Excellent ergonomics, Lots of customisation options available
Fixed screen that's not touch-sensitive, No Wi-Fi connectivity built-in, SLR design means the viewfinder inevitably can't show the image as it will be captured
Enthusiast photographers tend to shoot a bit of everything and they need a versatile camera that can cope with a wide range of subjects and conditions. The EOS 7D Mark II's weatherproofing means that it can be used in harsher conditions than all of Canon'...
From the moment I first used the Canon EOS 7D Mark II following its launch in September 2014, I thought it was a brilliant camera. With the exception of Wi-Fi connectivity, it had just about every feature I wanted in a tough, weatherproof body.Its blister...
Abstract: The Canon EOS 7D Mark II is one of the best APS-C DSLRs ever made, offering features normally only available in professional full frame models. The 65-point AF system gives fast and responsive focusing in a wide range of conditions, even when tracking fas...
Preserving its familiar and weather-sealed design, the 7D Mark II builds on the best of its predecessor: it's speedy with excellent photo and video quality, GPS, a flexible autofocus system and a big, bright viewfinder
No tilting or articulated display makes shooting video without a rig annoying, and it lacks built-in Wi-Fi
The fixed LCD and lack of built-in wireless file transfer support may make some people cross it off their short list, but the Canon EOS 7D Mark II should please any Canon fan looking for speed....
Abstract: There are 2 options for a Canon at this price range, this or the 6D. It all depends on what you shoot the most. For mainly landscapes/portraits then the 6D with it's full size sensor is certainly the winner for higher quality output, especially for large...
