Canon EOS 7D Mark II Preview And Comparison With Other EOS Cameras (and more sample pics, Gizmodo)

Gizmodo posted a video comparison of the [shoplink 22664]EOS 7D Mark II[/shoplink] vs. the [shoplink 14246]EOS 70D[/shoplink] and the [shoplink 2431]5D Mark III[/shoplink].

Basically the 7D Mark II inherits the video quality of the 5D Mark III. It lacks moire, and its sharpness is almost equal (maybe every-so-slightly softer). However, it’s a whole lot better than the 70D, especially in low light. While its noise levels don’t quite reach the standard of the full-frame sensor on the 5D Mark III, it’s still terrific in the dark.

 

The folks at Gizmodo also made a short photo-walk with the EOS 7D Mark II and shot some sample pictures.

Tatsuya Yamada – The Man Behind The Canon Powershot G7 X (and links to sample images)

Powershot G7 X

Canon Professional Network published an article bout Mr. Tatsuya Yamada, the mastermind behind the G7 X.

Says Mr. Yamada:

[The G7 X] was planned with the concept, ‘High image quality in a pocket size’. Compared to the G1 X Mark II, putting a priority on the size is a feature. By achieving a balance between high image quality and size, so an even broader range of people can enjoy the camera, the best answer was to use the 1.0-type sensor. Also, particular priority was placed on background blur plus the feel of that blurring as well, so in addition to an f/1.8 (W) – f/2.8 (T) lens that is bright even at maximum telephoto, a 9-blade aperture iris – the same as that on the G1 X Mark II – was also included. In addition to this, to achieve the ‘expanded range of shooting’ that Canon is aiming for, it is also equipped with a long focal length of 24-100mm, and an LCD monitor that tilts 180 degrees.”
