Forum Thread: Help with rotating a video.
I have just made my first 7D videos and made some of them with the camera in the portrait position. I'm a photographer and I do this all the time. Can I rotate them and use them or do I start over???
Forum Thread: Two blue lines on LCD
While in any mode except for auto on my Canon 7d I have one blue line on each side of my LCD while previewing my pics. These are close to the edge almost like crop lines however they do not appear when photos are downloaded and no cropping occurs.See more: Dave Arilotta's Profile « Wonder How To http://www.wonderhowto.com/community/member/davearilotta/#ixzz1Bi6U9QiU

Forum Thread: 7D Internal Flash Sync Problem
I recently got my 7D back after it was being fixed for a broken cf pin. The problem now lies with the flash, the flash DOES pop and it does fire, but there's no flash effect on the photo sometimes. Heres 2 photos, same settings but 1 is iso 1600 and the second is iso 2000.
Forum Thread: Drop/dead pixel on live view but not on footage?
hey, I have seen a white pixel on my canon 7D on the LCD screen while shooting video. This is not a dead pixel on the LCD screen though because when i use the digital zoom buttoms the relative size of the dead pixel changes also. So it must be a dead pixel on the sensor.
Forum Thread: Shooting at Night in a Supper Club
Hello, I have been shooting at night. I have used a telephoto with 2.8 aperture, and the 100mm 2.8 macro lens. I don't use a flash at the request of the owner...distracting and images look washed out. I usually boost the iso, but I get so much noise even after post production. The shoot coming us is a high school reunion. Any tips that I might be missing. Also, they want most of the shots to be candid.
Forum Thread: 7d Blurred Images Problem
I've been using a 7d for about a month and I've noticed my images are soft or blurred on the right hand side especially if the subjects are in a line so the right hand image is furthest away. I need to cover the whole lens with sharp clear images and finding this frustrating and need to resolve this quickly as these are wedding photographs. Has anyone had similar problems where the 7d fails to be sharp all the way across a lens? Using sigma 17-70 lens worked perfectly with my 50d camera

Forum Thread: Sharpness Issues with the 7D
Is anyone else having problems getting sharp images with the 7D when shooting action. I've had the camera approximately 6 months and the results I am getting are appalling. Every image is soft! I've been shooting top class rugby and football for 15 years and this is by far the worst camera I've owned. It's not a lens issue as I use a 70-200mm 2.8 IS Canon. In the past I've owned 10D, 20D etc... and the image results from these cameras are far superior! Looking into this problem on the net it ...

Forum Thread: Changing Aperture on Nikon Lens with a Canon Body
I used to have a Nikon, with which I used a 55-200mm lens, and have since bought a Canon 7D, but don't really want to sell my 55-200 if I don't need to. I therefore bought an adapter so I can use the lens with the 7d, however, because the lens' aperture is changed digitally, the Canon body doesn't recognise this and I therefore cannot change the aperture the lens while using it on this camera.
Forum Thread: Continuous Shooting
I am in the process of learning my 7D(slow learner). I have gotten to the point that I want to use the continuous shooting mode. My problem: when I set it to continuous shooting, if it times out automatically, it will reset to single shooting when I half click the shutter turning it back on. I have checked the manual and video tutorials online, and found nothing that addresses this.

I somehow have disabled the AF-Drive button on the top of the camera next to the LCD. When I push it now it does nothing. It used to work and I could choose one shot, AI Focus, or AI Servo. I don't know what I did and I can't find anything in the manual.

Forum Thread: Any advantages to buying kit or piece by piece?
I can get the 7d body for 1,050.00 plus tax. After a $250 rebate. I can't find a better deal anywhere. It's just the body, strap, charger, battery. Does the camera come with the viewfinder eyepiece? I can get an 18-135 lens for just over $300. Cheaper than most kits with the 18-55 lens which I don't want.
