I just switched the images from default JPEG into RAW and colour space from sRGB into RGB.
The camera is on P mode (I rarely use this one …) and as mentioned, all settings are from factory default:
– Auto ISO
– Auto AF point selection
– Batch conversion from RAW to JPEG with CS4 without any additional ingredients (no sharpening, saturation or highlight and shadow correction added)

I used the Canon 35 f1,4 L for these first images and noticed that the camera will pick the slowest shutter speed of 1/50 at the widest aperture (f1,4) as to prevent camera shake. Auto ISO pushed the ISO up to 2000 for some images.
Note the very good level of details while shooting contre-jour.
Again, as in P mode, there is no sign of “blinky” in the histogram.
I personally like the lite noise of the shutter speed. The camera, with the new design, sits very comfortably in the hand.
Unlike my other Canons, I don’t feel the need for the vertical grip for this camera… as yet.
Very well balanced with the Canon 35 f1,4

awesome…mine is still not coming yet…damn amazon service.
Love that first shot of the geranium? excellent clarity
Hey, how does it feel have crop sensor compare to FF? I’ve always been using FF but love the idea of good cross AF sensors.
Hey Bailie,
The 7D is just awesome and I find myself shooting more with the 7D than my 5D2s.
I think it’s all about ergonomic and the new AF.
I can shoot a whole wedding just with this body and 2 primes …
