RDKirk Adorama says I'm "packed."  More info | Canon has documented that contrast, saturation, and sharpness controls on its cameras decrease in incremental value as the level of the cameras increase. The P&S cameras have the greatest amount of bump-per-control-increment, the 1-Series cameras have the least. Also, the "neutral" position (which isn't truly neutral) starts out more contrasty, saturated, and with more sharpness on the lower-end cameras than the higher-end cameras.

jwcdds Cream of the Crop More info | Oct 31, 2009 00:07 | #11 It's an APS-C Canon CMOS sensor. It's been great since what.. the 20D? But if you want to strip away everything else about the 7D (build, new/better AF, 100% VF, wireless flash controller, MFA, HD video, etc...) and then yeah, the 7D's IQ seems a little bit overpriced.

The Rebels have always had IQ similar to their larger siblings. When you go from a Rebel to an xxD you are getting better build quality, better ergonomics, faster AF, higher frames per second, etc. These things don't do anything to increase the IQ that the lens is capable of but they do make it much easier for the photographer to get as much of that IQ as possible under a wide variety of conditions. -- Ken
