Focoro beta

Canon's mid-market cameras have been feeling a little down. By packing so much of their D3 into the D300's smaller body, the gap between the EOS 50D and EOS 1D has been frustrating Canon users. The EOS 7D is Canon's answer, creating a new tier in the digital EOS hierarchy, and in doing so, a spiritual successor to the 10D-20D-30D. The EOS 7D is an 18MP APS-C that can shoot 8fps. It is environmentally sealed, and has dual Digic4 processors allowing Canon users on a budget to consider this as their poor-man's version of the EOS-1D. ISO values are calibrated to 6400 (pushed another stop), and raw images are recorded in 14-bit. Unlike the other single-digit EOS lines, but like the 50D, the 7D has an in-built flash—the EOS 7D does this however by also including a Speedlite transmitter for controlling up to three groups of four flashes (a definite nod to a more professional set-up). The 7D also has a dual-axis electronic level which can display on either the rear LCD or in the viewfinder by using the 19 auto-focus points.
