This is 100% the best camera I’ve ever owned. Quality is immaculate, settings are easy to use, picture quality is amazing, the 120fps really puts it above anything else for a cinematic look.

Pretty new to this, but I’ve taken a ton of photos with the camera and they are great.

The Canon R7 was and continues to be one of my absolute favorite mirrorless cameras for sports. 15 Frames per second with the mechanical shutter for under $2000.00!? This camera has served me well, I’ve used it for portraits, street, sports, and even wildlife photos.The video features are amazing and I never had a single issue with heat.The battery life is ridiculously good!Autofocus is some of the fastest and best available for sports and fast moving subjects!The price tag of this camera is so quickly overshadowed by the endless possibilities that open when shooting with it!

I've long been a Canon shooter from film days with a Rebel, upgrading to a Digital Rebel, followed by a 40d and then a 6d. I then tried out a bridge camera, the Sony RX 10 mark IV for much of my photography hiking and birding where weight and size of my gear is important. The features of the Sony blew away the 6d and worked out much better for bird photography than my 6d / 100-400mm IS combo. Except in image quality. The small sensor of the Sony was much noisier than the 6d. A month or two ago, are friend updated me on the latest R line bodies and lenses from Canon, so I checked them out.The R7 added all of the features I was looking for, such as an electronic viewfinder and full-time manual focus override with zoom to help nail perfect focus in difficult situations, like birds in dense brush. 3 custom shooting memory slots. Face detection for both people and animals with eye detection. Furthermore, the new 100-400mm RF lens is small and light and perfect for long days in the field, so I purchased this body and lens to be my new wildlife rig, and more.My first impressions are excellent. As I am mostly using this for bird photography, this review is applicable to that and similar genres. First, the autofocus is blowing me away with how good it is. I created two custom configurations that I use regularly, one for birds in flight and one for other situations. For both configs I use shutter priority with a default of 1/800s and auto ISO capped at ISO6400, though I may experiment with going higher. Animal detection and eye detection are on for both configs as well. For birds in flight I have autofocus set to servo with a wide detection area and animal detection on. Burst is set to high speed. For all other birds I have the autofocus set to one shot with the smallest spot focus area set to the center. Manual focus override + magnify is on allowing me to manually tweak focus if the bird is obscured or too small for the camera to lock focus on it. Burst is on low speed.I have limited experience with the birds in flight settings, but I can say it is picking up the birds much easier and much faster than the 6D ever did. It is better than the Sony, too. Not every picture is coming out sharp- I need to look into that further, but some of them come out which is a huge improvement over my previous attempts where everything is blurry. The subject tracking picks out the bird and puts a box around it to tell you it is tracking focus on that point. For the non-flight mode, it is very good at picking out the bird and even the eye of the bird and tracking it even when it moves behind a branch or the eye isn't visible for a second. It seems to intuit that the bird behind the branch is what should be focused on instead of the branch. I rarely have to use manual override of the focus, unlike with the Sony.Much of my usage has been early morning with dark shadows before the sun hits most areas and 1/800s at ISO 6400 with the f8 lens is underexposed. I have been slowing down the shutter speed in those situations and the image stabilization in the body and lens works superbly. Shooting at 400mm handheld at speeds of 1/250 still produces sharp images, and I'm not particularly steady. The noise in the raw images at ISO6400 is present when viewed at 100% but is impressively low for that ISO. It seems to be similar to ISO1600 on the 6d which is the upper limit I would shoot at on that camera. Noise reduction can help clean this up, though I need to get better with the software tools to ideally remove the noise yet still leave lots of sharp detail in feathers. The electronic viewfinder is a huge help in these dim shooting situations. It brightens the image you are seeing to allow for easier focus and composition.I was excited to learn the camera supported battery recharging through the USBC port when using the LP6-ENH battery that it comes with so that I wouldn't have to carry a separate battery charger with me for travel. It didn't seem to work, however, when I first tried it, so I had to dig a little deeper into it. It turns out you need to use a USB power source and cable that supports USB PD protocol. The power bank that I carry with me in the field didn't support PD (and neither did the cable). I compared getting more LP6-ENH batteries with a built in USB C charging port vs. getting a new 20kmAh power bank that supported PD. It turns out a power bank was less expensive than the battery, so I got a new one with a PD cable and am now able to recharge in the field that way. I haven't needed to use it yet- the battery life has been good enough for a day of birding. That's better than the Sony camera could do.I am slightly disappointed with the RF lens offerings at this time. I bought a 3rd party lens adapter to use my existing EF lenses for now (aside from the RF 100-400mm) . The widest I have is the 17-40mm F4L which isn't really as wide as I would like on an APS-C camera for my occasional landscape shots. I was thinking about getting the Canon RF-S10-18mm lens, but wasn't really happy with its aperture. I just recently discovered that Sigma has made and RF-S version of its 10-18 f2.8 lens. Unless anything new comes out, that will probably be my next lens purchase. I like to do milky way and night sky photography in addition to the occasional landscape shot, and the f2.8 of that lens is much better suited to night photography and it is still reasonably small and light. For the rest of the lenses, I'll probably be satisfied to use my existing EF lenses with the adapter on the occasions when I need something between 18mm and 100mm.I have never been a fan of touch screens, but the one on this camera works pretty well and I'm getting used to it. I don't know if I will still like it in a few weeks when temperatures outside demand gloves. Navigating the menus without the touchscreen is a little slow as you apparently have to cycle through every item to get to the next main menu listing. Sony does this better with letting you use the arrows to move between major menus without having to cycle through every sub item. If you use the touch screen on the Canon, you can skip to the major menu item you are looking for.I haven't done too much customization of the buttons yet, but expect I will need to put the "drive" selection on a button. The 6d has a dedicated button and I use it a lot to switch between high speed, low speed and two second timer. There is a dedicated ISO button on the R7 which is nice. I don't use the dedicated record button, so that is a good one to repurpose.The ergonomics on the camera are pretty good. The viewfinder extends further away from the body than the one on the RP and is much more comfortable to use. On the RP, my nose was always squashed up against the touchscreen but that isn't a problem with the R7. The weight and balance of the camera is good. A few of the buttons require a little stretch and seem out of place, but I expect my muscle memory will adapt to it eventually and operating them will be second nature.All in all, this is a great camera, especially given the price. The megapixels, sensitivity and autofocus are all superb. Paired with the RF 100-400mm lens, this makes a great combo for taking hiking with you. 5 stars from me.

I went from a Canon SL3 to this. I loved the sl3 but this one puts it to shame. Sharpness is phenomenal, rapid fire is awesome and super quiet. I love it.

This is by far the best bang for buck camera in 2022. It has solid photo specs like 32 megapixels, 15fps mechanical, and 30fps electronic. Video is amazing too with the ability to shoot in 4K 60, C-Log 3, 10-bit, 4:2:2. It has a “4K Fine” mode that uses its 7K sensor downscaled to 4K for a bit of extra sharpness up to 30fps. It also has the same autofocus specs in the new R3, which is the best in the business right now. And best of all, unlike it’s more expensive counterparts, the R6 and R5, this camera DOES NOT OVERHEAT. It’s doesn’t overheat in 4K 60 OR 4K Fine. The only downsides to this camera are the APS-C sensor size and only having IPB recording modes (no All-i). But frankly, the sensor isn’t that big of a deal, it just struggles a bit in lowlight. And the IPB recording mode, while taking up less storage than All-i, can be more difficult to edit.TLDR: Amazing camera at a cheap price, highly recommend!
