Autofocus and metering

[
edit
]

The 7D has nineteen autofocus points arranged in a horizontal diamond pattern. The AF arrangement is a new design which uses a translucent LCD brandish in the viewfinder. The camera uses
TTL
63 zone colour sensitive metering system with iv variations (evaluative, center-weighted, fractional, spot) and exposure compensation of −5 EV to +5 EV in steps of 1/iii EV (±three EV visible in the viewfinder and top screen, ±5 EV visible on the back screen).
Eastward-TTL II
flash metering is provided. The translucent LCD tin can besides display guide lines and the spot metering area circle. As with almost other video-capable
DSLRs, the Catechism EOS 7D’s autofocusing function does not work while recording video. Instead, users tin only trigger a dissimilarity-detect AF wheel before recording process by hitting the AF push on the photographic camera’s rear panel. Users can manually focus the lens during a recording.

500D.

The Canon EOS 7D offers the ability to tape audio from an external source. Both shutter and aperture are available for manual control, and the 7D also provides multiple frame charge per unit options, including three that match the
HD
tv timing specs. Like most
DSLR
modes, the Canon 7D neglects endless autofocus during video recording, which is a great concern for advanced amateurs with pros likely to focus manually however. Separate movie clips that are captured by the Catechism EOS 7D are limited to twelve minutes in the loftier definition 1080p and 720p modes, or 24 minutes in the standard definition VGA mode, depending on what Meaty Wink Card is being used. Larger memory cards make for longer video lengths and are available in multiple sizes for the camera.
