How tough is a 7d

People is so gullible. I did not learn how durable a 7d. I can probably destroy one with one single hit if I throw it hard enough.

I think you need to get yourself a sense of humour or are you just plain attention seeking? Either way you sound like a complete muppet ;)
 
I did say it was funny, my point is that the show doesn't really test the durability of the camera. It was just for show, but believe what you want.

I must have gotten a dud because one drop and it was dead. Body exterior was damaged too. It took the surgeons at Canon to bring it back to life.
 
A better test would have been to drop it, and measure the distances to the floor, and then check if it is still working. Starting low and then higher My guess is that from a moderate distance, it would stop working.

Mine stopped working after a 3-foot fall onto concrete. At least Canon repaired it for free within a week.

It's a great video, I love most drtv videos. But really, it doesn't madder how durable a camera is, JUST DON'T DROP IT OR SET IT ON FIRE!
 
Wish someone would donate a 7D to me... kind of broke my heart watching this ... lol.

You can destroy a lot of things if you throw them hard enough. Welcome to Earth, Captain Obvious.

The fact that the shutter is still actuating is pretty astounding. I think the entirety of this video went above your noggin with a lot of room to spare.

It was pretty impressive what that camera went through, being frozen in water then lit on fire. The shutter still blasting away and the camera still took a photograph.
