Traded in my trusty 40D (which was my primary camera, then my crop camera for birding and wildlife) and some other unused equipment (and a kit You see it all the time on automotive forums, to theĮxtent that nowadays people struggle to accept the simple explanation, like that their battery is dead.ĭespite the recent bashing, I actually bought a 7D on Monday due to the Cyber Monday deals that were available. Maybe five to ten negative threads on a product, people start characterizing their individual problems as anĮpidemic.then the oh why doesn't X stand by their product begins. They Google it and find a few complaints. I'm going to sarcastically blame the Internet. It is everything anybody has an issue with these days. In the end I need a canon camera for my canon lens lineup but very I became pessimistic and worried about canon cameras. Tests and reviews show that they are actually good cameras but from now on I can't trust the reviewers too. I wanted to upgrade to 5D mark II or III but now I'm preoccupied with thought: what if I don't like these too if they are not much better than 7D. I probably wouldn't buy this camera if my 30D didn't die (after 2 times mirror and 2 times shutter repairs). I believe that in so many years of technological improvements and innovations it is not acceptable to have a ''capable'' camera with worser (despite being larger-18mp vs 8mp) image output. I can't doubt my 70-200 as it proved itself since many years ago. In the end what we like about the pictures are their quality which is determined by two factors: sensor and lens. still couldn't get as crisp images as with my 30D. pictures made me work too long in photoshop. display showed cool pictures which made me very happy at first but when I uploaded to computer I faced the reality. I took 7D to my central europe trip for 10 days. 9 point automatic af never focuses correctly. the easiest and the most obvious proof is that photos taken with my 70-200 f4 L IS (the king of sharpness) are not sharp anymore. Center weighed auto focusing was much better on my 30D. Yes it is possible to get good results with this camera too but it requires 3 times more effort, work and time to make it close to my photos taken with 30D. and classic story begins with soft images, focusing problems and annoying high noise levels. I respected the opinions from the big reviewers and experienced photographers' recommendations and got one. I blamed my lack of experience with 7D and mediocre quality lens. images seemed to lack in contrast and sharpness. I used the camera for 1 day with 15-85 lens on it. I have a friend who owns 7D for 2 years now and he loves it very much. but even in small images 5D image quality looked stunning (probably because been taken and processed by experienced and pro photographers). I don't do large prints yet I don't see large images in photography sites. I thought that in 5 years (release of 7D) there must have been serious improvements in image quality. yes limited capability and many shortcomings. I own this camera for 3 weeks and and my last word is I'm disappointed and I hate it. Kept that one for a couple of years before finding something else I couldn't live without.Yep. It had really ugly grips that looked like someone carved them with a pocket knife out of a piece of 2X4, but they still worked. I only used wadcutters in that gun, but man it was a good one. I also remember specifically a Taurus 38, a more or less clone of a heavy barrel Model 10, from the early 80's, that I did shoot the snot out of. I've never owned any of their newer guns. They were both older gun with wood grips from the 80's and early 90's. Some of the most comfortable grips I've ever owned. It had a 3" barrel, and rounded target type grips. Eventually traded/sold them off to get something else. I freely admit that I didn't shoot either of them a lot, but they did shoot well when I did. On those two specifically, the fit and finish was as nice as any Smith & Wesson I've ever owned, and I've owned a bunch of Smith & Wesson's. I've owned several Taurus revolvers over the years, including one each 65 and 66.
