(Mods, pls move this to the correct forum if this is not supposed to be here).
I posted this on another forum, thought someone could use this information here....
I will only post links instead of images cos I know BPN has the 1 image per post policy...
----------
To show the image quality and cropping ability of the 7D,here's a few crops at different % from images taken today with a 300 2.8 and 2x tele. All were hand held, exif is intact(in the jpeg's attached). (ISO 400, AI-Servo, Manual point mode). I can routinely crop an image to 50% with this camera and maintain enough detail to make a huge print. Settings applied to both the images are shown in screenshots. I usually sharpen in CS3, but for this test, I used DPP all the way.
This camera does demand the highest quality lenses you have, that's my opinion. :-). I've thrown everything I could imagine (humans, airplanes,mammals, birds, cars, BIF,fast action) at this camera so far, and it hasn't burped, yet.
A MA of +5 was required on this lens for me. There is a learning curve with this camera, I would recommend users to be patient and test it thoroughly before jumping to any conclusions about the 7D.
