Just like the original 7D, the Canon EOS 7D Mark II produces excellent photos by APS-C sensor standards. The 7D MkII has a 20.2-megapixel sensor capable of very good detail levels for the sensor size and resolution.

There are no great surprises in the Canon EOS 7D Mark II’s rear display and viewfinder. It has a 3-inch 1.04-million-dot LCD on the back. It’s a minor upgrade on the 921k-dot screen used in the original 7D, although it does rather show how little progress such displays have made in the last half-decade.
