Canon EOS 7D Mark II For Dummies

Introduction

Your Canon EOS 7D Mark II is the latest and greatest digital camera on the market — with a stunning 20.2-megapixel capture, Live View, high-definition video, and much more. But all this technology can be a bit daunting, especially if this is your first real digital single-lens reflex (SLR) camera. You no longer have modes like Portrait, Sport, Landscape, and so on. You’ve graduated to the big leagues. All you have to do is master the power you hold in your hands.

I’ve been using Canon digital SLRs since the EOS 10D, and I’ve learned a lot about the Canon brand of cameras since then. In addition to the EOS 7D Mark II I’m using to write this book, I also own an EOS 5D MKII and an EOS 7D, which has a lot of the features found on your EOS 7D Mark II. My goal is to show you how to become one with your camera. I don’t get overly technical in this book, even though your camera is very technical. I also do my best to keep it lively. So if you want to master your EOS 7D Mark II, you have the right book in your hands.
