Canon 7D Now Half Off at Just $749

March 12, 2015 By Eric Reagan

Canon 7D

There is a big price drop for the Canon 7D now in effect, which brings the price down to half off at just $749 (was $1499). I don’t know for sure but I suspect retailers are clearing out stock of the 7D since the 7D Mark II has been released and it will probably be gone for good soon.

There original Canon 7D is almost 6 years old now but is still a heckuva camera. It broke the mold for Canon’s APS-C lineup when it was announced in 2009. See my original Canon 7D Review for more and check out the deal while it lasts here at B&H Photo.

Also, the 7D with EF 28-135mm IS lens kit is $849, while the 7D with EF-S 18-135mm IS lens kit is $1099.

Watch the Canon 7D Shutter at 10,000fps

March 5, 2015 By Eric Reagan

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmjeCchGRQo&w=700]

This video from the Slow Mo Guys shows us a great look at the shutter movement inside the Canon 7D at a range of shutter speeds, all the way up to 1/8000s.

Screen Shot 2015-03-04 at 11.52.08 PM

It is a view we don’t ever really get to see even if we do understand the process of how a focal plane shutter works. Thanks to a Phantom camera that shoots HD video at 10,000fps, we get to see up close and in detail the mirror and shutter operation.

As you are watching, note the vibration of mirror on its impact and consider how that will affect image quality as much slower shutter speeds.

‘Adrift’ Timelapse is Mesmerizing View of the Fog of the San Francisco Bay Area

July 2, 2013 By Eric Reagan

[vimeo https://vimeo.com/69445362 w=640&h=360]

This gorgeous timelapse film was created from footage captured over the course of 2 years around the San Francisco Bay area. Simon Christen spent many mornings on the Marin Headlands capturing scene by scene of what he calls “a love letter to the fog of the San Francisco Bay Area.”

He shot these images with the Canon 7D and Canon 4oD in raw format with exposures generally occurring every 2-10 seconds. Exposure was set in manual mode. On the last shot with the fog engulfing the camera, both the he and camera got pretty well soaked due to all of the moisture from the dense fog.

He uses a sturdy Really Right Stuff tripods for keeping the shots steady and, when necessary, uses software stabilization in After Effects to smooth out some shots.

You can view more of Simon’s work here on his website.
