Last notes on my Canon 7D experience
Last notes on my Canon 7D experience:
1) The camera simply "nails" exposure. On my Canon 40D, I almost always have to adjust the exposure compensation since the camera almost never gets it right. On the 7D, it is a no brainer. The metering on this camera is a joy. The image attached to this blog shows a very difficult subject to meter. On the 40D, there is a bunch of trial and error to get it right, on the 7D, BAM: one shot and right.
2) I used the camera for the last time last night. I was asked to take pictures at a retirement party for someone I've worked with for over 7 years. The auto focus of the 7D with poor lighting was spot on. No issues waiting for the camera to find the subject. I'm attaching one photo not because it shows the ability of the camera but it shows the skills of another colleague at work who made this figure out of icing and used it to top the cake!
