I’m not sure the features of the R7 are worth the $1500 investment over my 7D2, which is working perfectly fine right now. The IBIS and animal eye focus would be very nice but I don’t know how well they’d perform with my Sigma 150-600mm C, particularly while trying to nab a fast moving song bird in the trees which is where I have the most difficulty right now.
I also want to learn a bit more about the dynamic range and lowlight/noice performance, which is where I have my biggest shortfall in my current set up. I don’t expect FF performance from a crop sensor but I sure hope that Canon has caught up with it’s competitors.
I still might decide to go for it, but I’d probably hold off until the R7 profile is incorporated into darktable and Rawtherapee. So to that end, I highly encourage YOU to get one as soon as possible! ![]()
