Canon EOS 7D - Versatile Auto Focus 1/8

[Megavoltt]

Nice teeth:-)

[SpecialOfficerD]

Very well made and informative but the sound could be a bit louder

[atrialfib29]

Swan dive!!!!!

[renebimse]

Rigtigt fedt kamera det må man sige...

[cicarelliphotography]

the 7d is a great camera with a great auto focus system, but the iso performance is horrible, you get noisy pictures even at ISO 200 or in some cases even at 100, shameful! I wish I had bought a 5dmkII at least back then, I no longer have that problem with the D3s, thanks Nikon

[bassnrifle]

@cicarelliphotography i feel sorry for you, you prolly SUCK at it

[34TR3m]

@cicarelliphotography hah in some month from now you stwich again over to the 1Dx than? but good way of wasting money :P

[hejkandi]

I'd like to see him bust a rap. Busta rhymes style

[MtGuyful]

lol that guy could sell anything

[MichaelMcMahon95]

Does the autofocus work the same when in the filming setting? (Full HD)

[rmphotographynow]

what's up...

[rudal90]

@eleetgamer well, I'm an Asian watching this, European watching This, Australian watching this, African watching this, American watching this. so where you come from?

[rudal90]

I see you Talented as an Actor. maybe the next Morgan Freeman I think..

btw thx for the Tuts.

[ahmad0o0o0o]

The question is : Will it blend?

[ashkibala1]

what's wrong with you people? if the guy was white, you all would say oooh he is so hot and bla bla bla. cut the crap and give him a break. he is more human than you stupid racist people.

[iconia86]

i feel like watching Brokeback Mountain...

[GrandPunch]

Did he steal that camera?

[SkoRpionMW2]

@GrandPunch stop being racist

[imperatorMher]

how can i control my 7d autofocus in videomode? please can you tell me it?

[kntwksol]

how about:........ y'all learn to manually focus??!!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!

i'm so sick of hearing about how bad or good a DLSR's auto-focus system is. just turn the effing focus ring!!!!!!!

[cc250honda1]

i have got the 1000D should i get the 7D

[sjaatime]

@cc250honda1 the 1000d is still a very nice camera. you can get the 7d if you want, i personally use it for video, but the stills are amazing. it would also be heavier, it's a 72mm lens not a 58 like the 1000d

[ClickKopf]

I want this guy to narrate my life

[Michkuty]

This guy makes me want to get 7D. Oh wait I just ordered it yesterday xD

[gabrielegreicy]

world class...many thanks...

[AshtonPhoto]

I complete lost what he was saying from 3:17 to 3:28.

[MOB7775101]

IS THE PERSON HIGH, THE VOICE IS SO-------OK TIME TO SLEEP. I MEAN THIS IN A GOOD WAY..

[Brando0307]

i like his teeth, so white.

[fzee17]

Villan with cool voice...

[ZXOH]

@fzee17 why villan?

[ELjaroni]

Watch my movie Cologne, filmed with the 7D, to see what this camera can do

[azgunz00]

You should run for president

[gagsterde]

you voice is like morgan freeman's, calm, cooling and makes me want to go to sleep 

[H4p10]

He's calm and collected, spooking him won't be an easy task ;)

Great host!

[IsojiI]

I was expecting to see more of this guy and his awesome voice after clicking ChristopherKBlog. :(

[shwow202]

I think he is a surrogate??

[Kurmeloinen]

Amazing, with that type of speech he could sell me almost anything! Haha.

[QwAdr0x256]

Christopher for President! or better: Christopher for GOD!!! your voice is hypnotizing. :)

[asjesus1]

She got there kinda late lol 03:10

But i still love my 7D...

thanks sir; great team!!!

[polarisnvega]

he is made of magic

[totyfotos]

He is a great host! Perfectly explained!! I almost fall into the Canon world.

But i´m a Nikon user and fan!

[part2themovie]

All State Rep's son

[stavrozinio]

i think he is from k-pax

[totyfotos]

@stavrozinio LOL

[ClankyRochet]

I think he came from Mars.

[Nsaimonsemvula]

Dear Sir What do you would like to recommend to me the best movie maker software of Canon EOS 7D? Thanks

[PhilippeFreestyle]

one important question, really: is the canon eos 7d the best video-shooting dslr camera these days or is there another one coming this year? I would highly appreciate a response, thanks a lot!

[xBananashake45x]

Hey guys, I wanna film professionally, but I don't know which camera to get... The Canon EOS Digital Rebel T1i or the Canon EOS 7D... The Canon EOS Digital Rebel T1i is only like $1,000 with an extra lens, but the Canon EOS 7D is like $1,800 with an extra lens. Is the extra $800 worth it? Or should I get a totally different camera/camcorder?

[simcha112]

@xBananashake45x I have the 7D and I love everything about it! Don't get the lens kit, instead buy a lens separately... You won't regret it!

[nofiction]

@xBananashake45x I would say the EOS 7D if want to save money then the 60D. But i feel the 800 is worth it.. you´ll get more low light sensitivity , better image quality and a hard camera.

[part2themovie]

@xBananashake45x film professionally or camera, choose one. DSLR is good for HD, but for indie/hollywood you need 2K or 4K and that camera is gonna be 10K

[RyanTheTuber]

It's quite weird for me that they're using a f/1.2 lens which is known to have sluggish focus

[Starcluster100]

Nice video well done :3

[LAxRUSH]

How do you turn on Autofocus? When I shoot video and move around it goes unfocused and doesnt auto foucus? Please help

[Folowne]

Reading Rainbows! Or SIGINT from Metal Gears Snake Eater.

[ClankyRochet]

Can you read me a bed time story.

[theprodigalson0718]

Nyahahaha....!

[MrAyajan]

@ClankyRochet hahaha

[slicknslykane]

nice video- check mine out.this was shot on a & 7d too.

its called Reach d' sky

[KLEMALL33]

Isn't he the man your man could smell like?

[waggygee]

awesome camera and good content in the review but you sound very very high...

[drunky1022]

You should do children bedtime story voice overs!

[MisssLadyRose]

does it auto focus while live video.. while its on a tripod && no one is touching it?

[Mrblackboxtunes]

@MisssLadyRose yes it does....check out a video i shot on 7d first time using the camera and first video i ever shot...Ls voicmail

[deviltikipower132]

great vid, im looking at this camera for video. how would you say it compares to the t2i? thanks

[Mrblackboxtunes]

@deviltikipower132 check out a video i shot on 7d first time using the camera and first video i ever shot...Ls voicmail

[BlankMessageTV]

i want him to be my friend

[FlashUser95]

I can sleep while he's talking. LOL xD

[FlashUser95]

Why is he holding the camera??

ps: he's so calm :D

[aznigguhJamez]

this video is better than the rest. no annoying music and the editing of this video really helps explains lol

[abcdellaily]

his voice isn't boring like all the rest :D

[RyanTheTuber]

May I have that f/11 luxury lens please!

That thing is more expensive than the 24-70mm f/2.8L USM

[tw06le]

This is Next goal! Rockin' an Xti for now.....

[Legacylout]

My Visa card is telling me buy this wth the 15 - 85mm IS and maybe splurge on a 70 - 200mm f2.8 IS..... Damn you Visa Card......

[HelloNewYorkCity]

while nikon has 51 points, only 15 have crosstype. so canon actually beats it with the 7d, the 1d mk iii and iv, with high prescision

[carbondecay]

THIS IS SICK!!!! I WANT IT!!!!

[roneyphoto]

Great and informative.

[Smorter]

the 5D has better performing AF than the 7D because it only gets 4 shots out of focus per second, whereas the 7D is 8 shots out of focus per second

[HelloNewYorkCity]

@Smorter ... not its not... the 7d has crosstype sensors ALL with higher precision, and DUAL digic processors, and the 5d sucks at high speed sports, its more of a still/junior/tiny studio photographer.

[AlexDeMars123]

What lens is that he has on there?

[gumzster]

@AlexDeMars123

A 50mm f1.2 L

[localdjango]

I bet this guy gets a lot pussy with that voice. He could be talking about AF points and get the girl into bed. As a matter of fact I bet he acquainted himself with that blonde's AF points after the shoot.

[encorporadow]

Very informational thank you!

[AugustKling]

I like your voice. You are realy cool.

[themoviekidownz]

@AugustKling

i know he is american, and not the canon rep, but he should be the canon rep here in the UK, our canon rep sucks

[suutari13]

@AugustKling

I agree he has an amazing voice.

[okalkushmando]

7 d's Versatile Auto Focus works with video also ?

[Citabria007]

@okalkushmando

There is no VDSLR today that has autofocus.

[DjhushaTV]

just got the 7d.

[natureworx]

Hi,

i am a nooby, and i am not getting why I am not able to take photograph in single click in P,AV,TV,M,B modes.

where as it allows me to do so in auto and CA modes to take picture in single click.

i am not able to figure out what i did wrong.

Please advice.

[gbsailing1]

@natureworx Hi natureworx it is possible that you haven't read the instructions...sorry if I sound sarcastic but I find it annoying when people expect to pick up such a high end camera with so much adjustability, complex technology behind it and don't bother to find out how it or taking photos works. Now your problem most likely sounds like the drive mode. Do you know what that is? You will find in your manual that there are three settings: single shot, AI assist. and multi shot check it out.

[KapteinFruit]

I love how he talks. So calm. :P

He seems like a very nice person. LOL.

[ricky1oh1]

@KapteinFruit thats what they said about wayne brady before dave chappelle should us the truth

[KapteinFruit]

I really want a Canon EOS 7D.

I might get one in May, but not sure.

Do anyone know if it's going to come a camera in the same lineup that will replace the 7D?

[museandmcr]

@KapteinFruit 7D er ganske ny, så jeg tror nok det fortsatt er en liten stund til det kommer noe nytt. Men nå er det også slik at man prøver å bygge et speilrefleks som er lett å bruke, og billig, for det er det de fleste leter etter idag. Du burde kjøpe 7D, så verdt det.

[KapteinFruit]

Hmm... Ja jeg vil virkelig ha et. Men vet ikke hva jeg skal gå for da. En 27" iMac med en i7 eller et Canon EOS 7D. Jeg har en kraftig spill PC allerede som talker det meste av video programmer og bildeprogrammer og jeg vil oppgradere fra 4GB RAM til 8GB om ikke lenge. Så hav synes du? Jeg tror jeg ville brukt iMac'en mere for editing av spill videoer og annen type editing enn hva jeg vil bruke kameraet til å ta bilder. Må bruker 3,000 kr mer hvis jeg skal ha iMac'en da.

[museandmcr]

@KapteinFruit iMac er faktisk ganske bra til redigerings program, men det går jo også an å kjøpe tilleggsprogram til din nåværende PC. Og de koster jo heller ikke så mye. Syntes fortsatt du burde ta 7D og kjøpe program for redigering til pc ved siden av.

[KapteinFruit]

Da tror jeg at jeg gjør det. ;)

Og "dyre" redigerings programmer er ikke så dyre hvis du laster ned trail og har keygen som faktisk fungerer.

Ja, det er ikke helt lov, men jeg kan ikke akkurat kjøpe programmer til flere tusen.

[YEZwizz]

Yes it might not be as good as the 7d or even replacing it but there is that I'm suppossing to be getting. It's called the Canon Rebel t2i.

[BloodBr0thers]

Yeah the Canon 7d is great... We shot our short film with it...

[newrepublicmovie]

We shot a feature using the 7D and used 3- 16GB cards. got just under 15 mins on each card and diged as we shot. Worked out really well. Check out our behind the scenes.

[rubent100]

Did you shoot 1080? I heard you can get 12 minutes on a 4GB card at 720p? Can you please clear up how much video i can get with 4GB and how much i can get with a 16GB card and at what format? Thanks

[pmgsound]

apparently it is 29 mins

[OcRaM86]

how long can i shoot in hd without a brake ?

[pilotemtnils]

it is 4 Gigs before a break

[dfewz]

such a beauty. 19AF points. WOW. what if you have 85mm f1.2 on it? dang...

[SilkwoodProductions]

I apologize for my typo. I meant to say "40D", not D40. If the EOS 7D does provide better IQ than the 40D, it is not by much. My contention is that Canon added megapixels that are not needed (unless one is printing larger than 16x20) at the expense of dynamic range, which is frequently needed, especially at high ISO settings. This trade-off was also a mistake, given the fact that very few, if any, Canon lenses even resolve image detail at the level of the 4.3µm pixel pitch of the 7D.

[ptys007]

I moved to 7D from XTi, which is similar in image quality terms to 40D. I do not care about 18mp photos as I do not need them that large (I store 8-10mp at most), but let me tell you, the ability to crop from 7D shots is phenomenal. It is just something else. With good lenses you do not need any extenders, just crop.

[video1688]

I love Canon d7 as it is good quality

[SilkwoodProductions]

I wish the 7D produced quality images. Features (bells and whistles), not image quality, reigned supreme in the design of the 7D. After spending over 150 hours shooting with this camera and 200 hours in post processing with three different RAW processors, image quality was/is lacking. IQ is not much better, if any, than the D40.

[provid1234]

no offense man but you are so wrong. The 7d's image quality is on par with the d300s. In fact I think it's sharper than the d300s in the high isos. My dad has a d40x and I have a 7d and the d40 (although a great cam) really has shitty high iso quality, a super mediocre 3 point autofocus system. For sports photo the d40 is trashed. Even though 8fps isn't that necessary, the d40 uses sd cards (much slower than cf) and it has a really slow buffer. The d40 and 7d just don't compare.

[morfou]

can i make time lapse in d7?

[ryan2stix]

@morfou its called editing

[Macinabit]

seems a nice piece of kit.

[001FJ]

I was really excited about the Canon 7D, but as a photographer I don't want so much technology stuffed in my camera. I want to have fun while photographing, and so I just want an option or two for the focus that work.

[roguexantic]

True, us old schoolers just like for our cameras to work so we can focus on the art of photography. Consumerism just took over and now we have a do it all camera to confuse us and complicate things when we should be enjoying the art of creating a photo.

[roguexantic]

Remember the good ol days of manual focus?

[rubent100]

what camera shoots 24fps?

[flatiron42]

This is the one, the 7d

[WorldWideBiohazard]

I WISH the Nikons had Zone AF!!!

[RamaP94]

it has u can use 9, 21 or all 51 focus points

[chrisrnzl]

does the 7d have auto focus in movie/video mode?

[floboskifilms]

Yes. It works like taken a photo.

[strictpolicy]

yes

[erjohnson227]

not to be a basher, in fact all of you will probably jump on me for this, but didnt the d3 and d300 have all of these features in autofocus (51 point, auto af selelection, single af point, 9, 21, 51 point cluster, and af 3d tracking) two years ago?

[904SF]

I have a D60 Nikon and am planning to switch to Canon. Would it be a good switch from a Nikon D60 to a Canon 7D?

[ICobra18I]

Depends on how many lenses you got for your Nikon. Because on a Nikon D300s (which is very similar to the 7D) for example you could reuse those lenses without buying new ones. Another point for the D300 is that you are familiar with the menu.

[904SF]

No lens except the included kit lens. And I dont mind learning all the Canon lens. so do you think it would be a good switch??

[yyyy2999]

way different class of cameras, but yes its a good idea.

[yyyy2999]

its really expensive though, just telling ya. A nikon d90 isn't a bad idea.

[juliendemond]

Go see my tests i made with the EOS 7D in HD 1280:720 in 50 fps to 25 with a 60mm macro lens (no image stabilizer, it shakes a little...).

I put in post production a 2:35 wide cache and a basic bleach film effect to make it cinema way. Tell me what you think ! ;-)

Go to my profile to see the video. Cheers !

[theVATANSEVER]

in the hands of this dude, 7D looks like my crappy compacts...

[neodelphi]

this is amazing! can't wait to have my own unboxing video for this camera lol.

[fruitflyproductions]

Verrrrrry nice.

[ChioPhotography]

Awesome, best AF so far by its options and abilities for a photographer
