  • 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...

  • 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...
