Canon makes a splash with the launch of its new EOS 7D digital SLR

We give Canon's EOS 7D digital SLR camera a test run on Cockatoo Island

Canon's EOS 7D is an 18-megapixel D-SLR camera that uses an APS-C image sensor for capturing clean and vibrant shots. It's the next model up from the EOS 50D , and it includes some more oomph for photographers keen on capturing action shots. It has a 19-point autofocus system that will keep a moving subject in focus within those points; it can capture at up to 8 frames per second in burst mode, for up to 90 shots. Not only that, but the EOS 7D has amazing performance at high ISO settings, and it can take shots at ISO 6400 without even a hint of noise. Cockatoo Island in Sydney harbour was the location Canon chose to showcase the camera and allow a select group of journalists to test out the new camera's features. Read on for our showcase of the Canon EOS 7D digital SLR camera new features. We also reveal our results from the ontest Canon competition challenges including capturing Spectacles Portraiture, Practically Black and Splat Action.
