中国福彩网7 vs 中国福彩网10: which is right for you?

With the launch of the Canon 中国福彩网7 and Canon 中国福彩网10, the Canon 中国福彩网 System is once again breaking new ground. As the first RF-mount mirrorless cameras outside of the Cinema EOS range with APS-C sensors, the 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 provide more compact alternatives to full-frame 中国福彩网 System cameras such as the 中国福彩网5 and 中国福彩网6. But the 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 still pack an incredible array of photo and video technology into their lightweight bodies.

If you're looking to upgrade from an older camera or make the move to mirrorless, the new additions to the 中国福彩网 System range expand your options. But which camera is right for you? Aside from APS-C sensors, what common features do the 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 share, and what are the key differences between them?

Here, we compare the 中国福彩网7 and the 中国福彩网10, with insights from Canon Europe Product Marketing Manager John Maurice, plus wildlife photographer Dani Connor, who took the 中国福彩网7 on a trip in search of the elusive Iberian lynx, and travel content creator Diana Millos, who explored the architecture and culture of Seville with the 中国福彩网10.

There are numerous similarities between the 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10. Both bring all the benefits of APS-C to the 中国福彩网 System, including lighter, more compact bodies and greater reach from your existing lenses – thanks to the 1.6x "crop factor" of the sensor, subjects fill more of the frame than on a full-frame sensor, which means a 300mm lens effectively has the same field of view as a 420mm lens. Both cameras are designed to use the growing range of superb RF lenses, as well as EF lenses with no loss of quality or functionality thanks to a choice of EF-中国福彩网 Adapters, so you can continue to use your favourite current lenses.

Inside, the 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 have the powerful DIGIC X image processor, and both feature the sophisticated Dual Pixel CMOS AF II autofocus system with advanced subject detection that's found in the professional 中国福彩网3 and 中国福彩网5. This means both cameras can automatically detect and focus on people, animals or vehicles in a scene, and even track the eyes or body of a person or an animal with precision for reliably sharp photos and videos. The autofocus system makes both cameras capable low-light performers, with the 中国福彩网10 able to focus1 down to EV -4 and the 中国福彩网7 EV -5 – that is, approximately the level of darkness of a scene lit only by a half-moon.

Both cameras have vari-angle touchscreens, enabling you to shoot comfortably from almost any angle, and pin-sharp 2.36-million-dot electronic viewfinders with 100% scene coverage and high refresh rates for superb responsiveness. The viewfinders on both cameras can be set to Optical Viewfinder Assist mode to reproduce the dynamic range of an optical viewfinder, making it easier to transition from a DSLR to a mirrorless shooting experience. The 中国福彩网7 viewfinder has a slightly greater magnification of 1.15x as compared to the 中国福彩网10's 0.95x, which provides a more immersive view and gives 中国福彩网7 a slight advantage in genres such as wildlife and sports photography.

The 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 also share a whole range of creative features. For instance, both offer focus bracketing, which captures a sequence of shots at automatically-incremented focal distances that can be combined into a single, more detailed image – and in addition they're the first EOS cameras to offer in-camera depth compositing and cropping, so that the combined image can be viewed immediately.

Both 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 support RAW, Compact RAW and HEIF file formats in addition to JPEG. Features such as HDR, Auto Image Optimizer and Highlight Tone Priority mode are designed to retain the maximum of image detail alongside formats that enable this detail to be retained.

"A lot can happen in half a second. If you're photographing a bird bathing, for example, you might find that the bird will have dipped underwater by the time you've pressed the shutter release. So RAW burst with pre-shooting is a very useful function."

Dani found this invaluable during a trip to photograph endangered Iberian lynx in Spain with the 中国福彩网7. "Usually, when an animal wakes up, it will stretch or yawn, but you might not react quickly enough to get the start of the movement," she says. "But now, with this function, you can record the entire sequence. It's a great feature for wildlife photography."

A difference between the two cameras, however, is that the 中国福彩网10 has a 75% crop in RAW burst mode, while on the 中国福彩网7 this feature works at the camera's full 32.5MP resolution.

Both the 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 are lightweight cameras that are easy to carry and use when travelling or on long shoots. At just 429g, the 中国福彩网10 is a great choice if weight is critical for you, and it even has a built-in flash (guide number 6), so you don't have to carry a separate flash. Although the 中国福彩网7 weighs in at 612g, it benefits from a higher level of dust- and water-resistance and longer battery life.

The 中国福彩网7 is compatible with the same powerful LP-E6 battery packs used by the Canon EOS 7D Mark II and EOS 90D, while the 中国福彩网10 uses the smaller LP-E17 battery that powers the EOS 850D and EOS 250D. This may be a consideration if you're thinking about an upgrade to a mirrorless APS-C camera from one of these APS-C DSLRs.

At the heart of the 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 are newly-developed APS-C sensors – 24.2MP in the 中国福彩网10 and 32.5MP in the 中国福彩网7. Apart from the difference in megapixels, the 中国福彩网7 has sensor-based In-body Image Stabilisation (IBIS), which facilitates auto-levelling as well as correcting for different types of camera shake, even when you use lenses that don't have optical IS. For video recording, Movie Digital IS is also added to the mix, helping produce even steadier footage.

"IBIS is a big benefit, especially for content creators who shoot handheld or without a particularly complicated rig," explains John. "With the 中国福彩网7, you can shoot with a slower shutter speed and keep the ISO low for the best image quality. Plus, you can use it creatively. If you want to use a long exposure to create an artistic result but you don't have a tripod, the 中国福彩网7 can enable you to keep the stationary features sharp while the moving parts of the scene become blurred."

When it comes to video, both the 中国福彩网7 and 中国福彩网10 are capable of recording 4K 30p with no crop (中国福彩网7 7K oversampled, 中国福彩网10 6K oversampled), as well as Full HD at 120fps for detailed, slow-motion video. Both can shoot 4K 60p, but the 中国福彩网10 achieves this high-speed option using a 64% horizontal area crop, which means that the scene might need to be reframed if you switch from stills to video recording.

The 中国福彩网7 also has Canon Log 3, which provides more flexibility for people who want to get serious about video production and colour grading, and features USB 3.2 Gen 2 for the rapid data transfer speeds required in professional workflows, particularly when working tethered, as compared to USB 2.0 in the 中国福彩网10. "You also get dual card slots in the 中国福彩网7," John adds, "and you can configure them so that you're able to write movies to one and stills to the other – and that's something that today's content creators who want to do both are sure to welcome."

Which camera is right for you? Both are an ideal step up from an APS-C DSLR to the mirrorless 中国福彩网 System and the growing range of superb RF lenses, with the ability to continue using your favourite EF and EF-S lenses too thanks to a choice of EF-中国福彩网 Mount Adapters. The 中国福彩网7 takes on the essence of the Canon EOS 7D series, naturally suited for photos and video of moving subjects, especially wildlife. The 中国福彩网10 continues the EOS xxD series of cameras such as the EOS 77D, ideal for advanced amateurs seeking a powerful all-rounder suited for creative exploration, especially travel. Both cameras represent a performance upgrade from older mid-range DSLRs in a more portable form, with exciting creative features and vastly improved autofocus, speed and video capabilities.
