What use is all that if the AF don’t work !!! would rather have 8.2mp of a sharp image than 18mp out of focus. At the end of the day he giving up a pro camera for a hobby one. Just my take on it, his money.

I know what you mean and I haven’t used a 1d Mkii in a long while but you get so much more feedback from the higher res screen. Granted if you know what you are doing you mightn’t need to be “chimpin” all the time. After using a coupe of 5d’s recently I can tell you the AF on the 7D is a dream.

And yes I do have a 7D :lol:

PS Great rally work on yer site

I wouldn’t change, you will be disappointed (unless you want the video option). I have a 1D mk11 and a 1D mk1V as well as a 7D and a 5Dmk1.

The only thing the 7D gets used for is I take it on holiday because it has Video.

I am not running down the 7D, it is in a different market and it stands out well in that section but up against the 1D mk11 it just doesn’t compare.

My opinion only.

You’re the man to listen to so as you can compare both :D

Cheers dude, it was the iso performance and the bigger screen that was the main draw to it, cause when Im shooting at 1/30 for panning and then realise when i get home half them are rubbish, it is disheartening…:P but looks like im gonna stick with the mkii and invest in a 100-400l instead, thanks for all the input lads…:D
