Those are Camera JPEGs or from RAW files?
they were shot as raw and converted in lightroom . i made a few adjustments to make the light level look the same on all 3 because i had exposure compensation set to 1-1/3 for the first 2 then just 1/3 for the 6400 pic.
These look good....no doubt that for internet viewing the 7D MKII can certainly make useable images at high ISO. I have not attempted any prints......yet.
Just wondering how you guys like the new location (vertically on the right side in the viewfinder eyepiece) of the ELI when shooting in manual?
A friend just bought the 7DMK2 and I was using it for a little bit and couldn't find the ELI....when I did, I didn't like it......but I was just wondering about those of you who have purchased it and using it on a regular basis now.
I remember thinking it was not the same as other bodies I have had when I first started using it. Beyond that when I read this I had to think about it a minute because it I never thought of it as an issue. To me it is a non issue.Quote:

I just got my 7D2 last week.- For manual mode I have not adjusted to the little hard to see bar on the right side. In my opinion this is an oversite.Quote:

I prefer it at the bottom, but don't use it often. Generally just for getting in the ballpark of the correct exposure when I first arrive somewhere.
No... if you're used to it, you won't want to give up control over shutter speed and/or aperture. Instead you'll dial down the ISO past 100, until it says A. Then you'll run into how annoying it is to change EC when in M mode, and you'll wish the ISO/FEC button was an ISO/EC button when flash isn't activated.Quote:
