OFFICIAL: CANON EOS 7D Mark II - User Thread

Just got my 7dmk2 with powershot n2 yesterday 2635...with loads of extras...image quality is awesome..Especially with high isos..Like at iso 6400 the quality is as good as my 60d iso 1000'..only thing I'm not happy about is that selection of image quality for sd n cf card..if u assign raw for sd n jpg for cf ..u can't basically select shooting raw only.cause the 2 options record raw n jpeg into each cf n sd card.or raw n jpeg into both cards....other than that the performance is awesome

U mean the camera don't allow to have option to only shoot both raw and jpg?
I used 5dmk3 before which allow me to just shoot raw only and auto store to SD card only if CF is full.
Use the Q button to choose different option for the card.

It does..what I meant was like .eg. 1 is raw 2 is jpeg and 1 is also cf card n 2 is sd card..so what I wanted was if shoot 1 it auto goes into 1..if I shoot 2 it auto goes into 2..note the only options they have is to shoot both 1 n 2 together n it goes into both cards respectively..or u shoot 1 n 2 n it both types of image goes into both cards...i end up just choosing to shoot raw first..anyway there's a quick image quality switch ..

The 7D Mark II was designed for action photography. So here are some samples of it being used for that purpose.

Any idea of how DSLR cameras can be customised ? For example, is there a way to change the components inside the camera or the software ?

Inside only a few...like making it an infrared camera.....changing the focusing screen...software I only know magic lantern..unlocks quite alot more than Canon offers

I doubt you can change focus screen for the 7d mk II just like 5d mk III and 1dx.
