Canon announces 7D Mark II [DigitalProductionME.com](DigitalProductionME.com Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Arguably one of the most long-awaited cameras in recent years, Canon has today announced the launch of the Canon 7D Mark II, five years after the original 7D hit shelves in 2009. Building on the performance of the EOS 7D, and harnessing technologies found in the flagship, professional EOS-1D X, the new camera is, according to Canon: "made for speed, with extreme power and performance providing the freedom for enthusiast photographers to shoot a world of ever-changing action." The camera can capture 10 frames per second (fps) without a drop in resolution, and together with a new 65-point cross-type AF system and Dual DIGIC 6 processors, the EOS 7D Mark II sets a new benchmark for speed and power. The new 7D Mark II features: - A new 20.2 MP APS-C CMOS sensor with a native ISO 100-16,000 range, expandable to ISO 51,200. - Advanced high-resolution 150k pixel RGB+IR metering sensor and flicker detection. - Customisable body controls and a new viewfinder which provides approximately 100% coverage. - Pro-level movie features, including live, uncompressed HDMI output and Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology. The EOS 7D Mark II will be available from November with an RRP of £1,599.99/Dhs9,540 (body only). (c) 2014 ITP Business Publishing Ltd. All Rights Reserved. Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc.
