Canon T7i/800D review: Still a solid step-up for new dSLR fans
2017-10-25
the u.s. rebel t7 I also known as the
800 D is a completely different camera
than the t6 I 750d on the inside but
somehow Canon manages to make this big
change feel incremental it delivers
roughly the same photo quality's before
at the same resolution and shoots a
little bit faster once you discount how
fast or slow your lens drives so it
remains a reliable option for people
looking for a functional camera capable
of handling kids pets and vacation
snapshots the most visible change is the
updated newbie interface the shooting
display doesn't offer any different
options but it does look more modern and
attractive with bright imagery and more
explanatory text the guided menu options
simply pops up an interstitial screen
telling you what a given submenu does
feature guide' isn't new and gets old
really fast the cameras articulated
touchscreen is still a favorite of mine
for shooting video though it's
responsive and has an intelligent user
interface including the usual
capabilities like touch focus but
streamlined live view shooting the rest
of the bodies pretty standard for a DSLR
it's got a comfortable grip but it's big
compared to competitors like the Nikon
d50 600 or smaller mirrorless models it
feels sturdy if a bit plasticky there
are direct access controls for most
functions something you get when you
step up from a bare-bones entry-level
model and it's got a nice set of
autofocus options for its class thanks
to the upgrade to canons dual pixel CMOS
sensor
