CANON 7D vs NIKON D7000

[o hey tyler]

Jeeze, while reading this thread I was thinking that you must be more deterred to buy a Nikon solely based on the persistence of actual Nikon owners. On top of that, Nikon owners that were citing false information about Canon without looking up actual facts.

Whichever camera you get, you'll be happy with it. My girlfriend is currently saving for a 7D herself to upgrade from her T1i. Good luck on your buying venture. :thumbup:

kewl.
so for this particular shot, i assume you used the D7000?

 

[Talihubba]

I my self, like the 7D over D7000.
Imo it has a better grib, better sound (lol that's just canon overall) better "looks".
Butter camera wise, i think it's the same

If canon added the noise handling like Nikons, I would deffo go canon.

I am a canon man but the noise is a problem!
However, I have developed my own method (which is quite reliable for noise reduction so, it isn't too much of a problem for me now .)
to get rid of noise.

but i say nikon.

You own 450D, hmmmm...
So, you're saying that between the two giant manufacturers there is a modest difference with the noise in low light still images?:scratch:

I am not sure what you are trying to say.
Are you asking for my opinion or stating that I do not have a valid opinion as I own a 450D (and a 20D if you looked at my signature)?

It is just a fact, nikon handle noise much better than canon.
Watch the video links posted earlier and you will see the difference.
as I stated though, I have developed my own method to reduce nois, but it is not efficient to do it to all my images, therfore, the less noise in the original image,the better.

And you're referring to all the models of Canon?

Maybe I am trying to say that your opinion is invalid lol

Noticed you have that link for Recuva, my external hard disk was being damage and all the files contained cannot be opened, I'm currently using Minitool Power Data Recovery Free Edition but it takes forever to retrieved my files it is very slow.

I wonder if Recuva is better?

Is the weight of 7D a big deal?

Is the weight of 7D a big deal?

I carry around a gripped 5D, so I probably wouldn't be too put off by the weight of the 7D.

Keep in mind, my girlfriend is getting a 7D, and she uses my 5D regularly. The weight shouldn't be an issue, unless you're a girl (and a very out of shape one at that).

I have been using a 7d for quite some time to shoot basketball games for our local paper. Love it. It feels amazing in your hands. If you go to cameralabs.com, they did an in depth review of the d7000 and tested each of its features. I would check it out. But more importantly, I would go somewhere and get both of them in your hands... whichever one feels better is the one i would go with, as they are both amazing pieces of equipment.

Check out Chase Jarvis testing the d7000.

lmfao I'm pretty sure I'm not a girl.

Maybe you'll get used to it's extra weight over time, I guess.:thumbup:

I've done that already and I'd say they're both good feel in the hands but I like 7D better, good ergonomics.
Just been bothered by its extra weight, but given and justified by its entirely made body of magnesium alloy which I like and prefer the most because its surely is tough and durable not to mention its speed and dual digic processors.
Maybe I'll get used to its extra weight over time.

For the love of god, buy the 7D and let this thread die already. :gah:
