Rent NowThe Canon EOS 7D Mark II is a professional-grade APS-C DSLR built for speed and durability, designed primarily for sports, wildlife, and action photographers who need fast, reliable autofocus and rugged construction from a crop-sensor body. It sits at the top of Canon’s APS-C DSLR lineup, offering performance-oriented features generally reserved for full-frame professional bodies in a more compact, lightweight package.
At the core of the 7D Mark II is a 20.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor paired with dual DIGIC 6 processors, delivering fast processing speeds that support the camera’s rapid continuous shooting and autofocus performance. Continuous shooting reaches up to 10fps, giving the camera strong burst capability well suited to fast-moving subjects in sports and wildlife photography. Autofocus is handled by a 65-point all cross-type AF system, one of the most advanced AF arrays Canon offered in an APS-C DSLR, providing dense coverage and reliable subject tracking across a wide portion of the frame.
The camera incorporates Dual Pixel CMOS AF for smooth, fast autofocus during live view and video shooting, along with an Intelligent Tracking and Recognition (iTR) AF system that uses a dedicated metering sensor to help maintain focus on moving subjects by factoring in color and face detection alongside conventional AF data. Metering is handled through a 150,000-pixel RGB+IR sensor, contributing to accurate exposure and improved subject tracking under varied lighting conditions, including flicker detection for shooting under artificial light sources.
Build quality is a defining strength of the 7D Mark II, with a magnesium alloy body offering extensive weather sealing rated to a level comparable with Canon’s professional full-frame bodies, making it well suited to demanding outdoor conditions. The camera features dual card slots, accepting both CompactFlash and SD cards, along with a fixed 3.0-inch rear LCD and a high-coverage optical viewfinder offering approximately 100% frame coverage.
Video capability includes Full HD recording at up to 60p, along with a built-in GPS receiver for geotagging images and tracking location data during shooting, a feature not common among APS-C DSLRs of its era. The 7D Mark II uses Canon’s EF/EF-S lens mount, giving it access to Canon’s full range of EF and EF-S lenses, and connectivity can be extended through optional accessories for wireless file transfer.
