Before you blame your camera or lens, do some test shots using a sturdy tripod and a good flash so you can be sure the image is well lighted. I used to have a 7D and a 24-105 and It produced very good images.

If the ligth is not strong enough, your image tends to have low contrast and so they look less sharp.


I'm not blaming the camera at all. I'm saying it's great and all of my 7D images are getting approved...and selling.


That is the problem of wrinting too fast:-) I haven't seen your last post.


LOL, the "last post" was 12 days ago. I'd say that you are typing too slow.

Hi Guys,

I bought a Canon 7D in August 2011 and have spent nearly a year thinking that the focus was down to something that I was doing, even when using a tripod and fast shutter speeds.

However, before the warranty was up I finally succumbed and took it back to the shop where I bought it, together with a bunch of photos I had taken...And guess what!! The camera needed recalibrating as it was front focusing.

I have just picked it up from the Service Centre this morning so will be checking it out tonight, so fingers crossed it will be all sorted.

So, if you are still having problems it may be worth getting it checked out.

Not unheard of. More common than you think.

Must admit last night's photos don't look promising as the images were very soft, but will be carrying out further checks tonight with a Spyder LensCal and comparison checks against my 20D.

So fingers crossed.
