About

News and more for Canon EOS 7D users.

I bought this domain when the first rumors emerged about an upcoming new Canon APS-C camera line above the xxD series to be named EOS 7D. I thought making a "planet-site" about what sounded to be my next/dream camera could be fun.

The ironi is that I don't have the camera myself - yet. It's still a camera I plan to purchase (though I wished Canon wasn't riding that megapixel race so hard), but it also costs a lot of money, and do not feel I got the savings yet. But I hope to get it before spring:-)

The ultimate goal for this site is to make a place for 7D users to hangout, read news, discuss, learn, share photos and get tips. But less can do, and as least as long as I don't have the camera myself, I will probably restrict my ambitions to a simple news site. At the moment the site is very new, and I'm fully aware that it has a few "quirks"...

Myself, I'm just an ordinary amateur photographer. By profession I'm an IT developer and live in Copenhagen, Denmark. You can find my photo gallery on Flickr, and I have a homemade  sparingly updated personal homepage/blog named Rockland (danish site). I have been photographing with a DSLR since summer 2007 where I bought a Canon EOS 400D, and currently (and hopefully not to long;-)) I use the 50D...

Please contact me if you have any tips for news, articles and links, or general comments and suggestions for this site.
