if it says "Viewfinder better THAN 7D" .. then maybe it makes sense

Things I hate about 7D?


uhmm.... too cheap? hahaha.. none that I can think of...

Maybe one little complaint... MORE SSM lenses please!!!

other than that... a $350 70-210 f4 is very very sharp.

If I had to choose again... 7D all the way man!!!

I don't like the colour from 20D, looks abit pale too me.. of course, this is my personal preference.. not intended to flame 20D user. Just me..

I hate that Canon doesn't make in-camera 3-stop AS like 7D does.

Pic quality: I dun hate.
I like 7D's colour more.

Controls: I dun hate.
7D's control is perfect. It feels more like a camera.

Flash: hate a bit.
7D's Inconsistent flash.But -got built in wireless flash system.

Lens: I dun hate.
7D's : who need IS lens?
20D : lots of lens. but how lens are good-grade-low-cost lens?

You've got to try them out yourself. Our opinons may be bias.

First try them yourself. I own a 7D for nearly 7 months I'm yet to find something that leads to hate. I just love the camera for it's color straight out of camera, low noise and of course the one and only AS, stablizes even the 50mm F1.8 . I can handhold 400mm (600mm equvalent ) lens. As for flash I only have the 5400HS no choice but manual mode really goods results when bounced.
