jakefreese Senior Member 555 posts Likes: 6 Joined Jan 2012 Location: TEXAS More info | May 13, 2012 20:44 | #9 I just made the 40d to 7d jump, and while the 40d works great when you have the light, I took pics at my daughter s dance recital last night all at iso 3200 & 6400 and they came out awesome for the circumstances. A lightning storm took out about half of there lighting system so the lighting was terrible. But the 7d worked awesome, the 40d couldn't have come close in those conditions. 7D, 70-200L 2.8 IS II, some rocks and hammers...

snake0ape Goldmember  More info | May 13, 2012 22:11 | #12 You will love it. I just got mine a few weeks ago to replace my T1i. Now at my son's soccer game, I have tripled my picture count and the good news is that I have quad-tripled the number of keepers. And video is quite usable compared to the T1i. 5Diii | 50D | 8-15L 4| 16-35L 2.8 II| 24-70L 2.8 II | 70-200L 2.8 IS II |Tamy 150-600 | Σ35Art 1.4 | 40 2.8 | Σ50Art 1.4 | 85L 1.2 II | 100 2.8 Macro | Helios 44-3 58mm f2.0 |Helios 40-1 85mm f1.5 | 1.4x & 2x teleconverters
