Canon recently released the above new promo video for the Canon 7D Mark II. I think it’s a fantastic all-around camera and I’m actually considering buying one for myself.

Am I the only one that thinks the impact of Canon’s promo videos are overly stale? I just cringe watching some of these videos whenever a new camera comes out.

One of the great new features on the Canon 7D Mark II is the ability to shoot timelapse photos without the need for the overpriced Canon TC-80N3, which was required on prior Canon pro and prosumer DSLRs if you wanted to shoot in interval mode.

However, when the Canon 7D Mark II was initially announced, there was some confusion about its timelapse capabilities because some of the initial specs and documentation referenced that it could be programmed to capture photos in intervals between 1 and 99 images. That would suck and be pretty much a pointless feature since a second of video footage from a timelapse would contain at least 24 images (e.g., 1080p video at 24fps).  [Read more…]
