Battle of the Camera Heavy Weights: 7D Mark II Vs D750

Nikon and Canon have a long-standing rivalry in the professional camera scene. And this week, the two square off once more as both have unveiled their newest DSLR camera models.
On the red corner, there’s the new Nikon D750. The camera features a 24MP FX-format CMOS sensor coupled with an Expeed 4 image processor. It has an ISO range of 100-12800 and is expandable up to 50-51200, and a shutter speed range of 30-1/4000s as well as a continuous shooting speed of 6.5 shots per second.

Focusing prowess is brought by a 51-point AF system with 15 cross-type sensors. The D750 is capable of recording Full HD video at 60p, 30p and 24p. Nikon has also made the camera really flexible to the needs of photographers with full manual controls, including aperture adjustment and shutter speed/ISO adjustments.

Moreover, a number of intelligent features have been incorporated into the device including a Highlight Weighted Metering feature that prevents blown-out highlights in bright light conditions and a Clarity and Flat Advanced Picture Control settings that instructs the camera to emphasize intense image details and broad tonal range.
At the back of the device is a 3.2-inch display that can be tilted up or down. There’s also Wi-Fi that will let any smartphone connect to the camera and act as a remote shutter. Other notable features of the D750 include dual SD memory card slots, a pop-up flash, a 100% viewfinder coverage, a shutter lifetime of 150,000 shots, simultaneous HDMI output and a built-in intervalometer.
The Nikon D750 will start shipping before the end of the month with a price tag of $2300 that comes with a Nikkor 24-120mm f/4 VR lens.
Meanwhile, on the blue corner, there’s the recently announced Canon 7D Mark II. The camera features a Dual Pixel AF and an AF system that features 65 cross-type points. Performance is driven by a 20.2MP APS-C sensor coupled with its dual Digic  6 image processors.

The camera is capable of recording Full HD video at 60fps in either MP4 or MOV formats. ISO range is at 100-16000 and can be expanded up to 51200. Other notable features of the 7D is a 1.04M-dot 3-inch LCD screen, a 150k pixel RGB+IR 252-one metering sensor, a built-in intervalometer, built-in GPS and a longer-lasting battery.
Unfortunately, unlike the Nikon D750, the 7D Mark II doesn’t have Wi-Fi connectivity. The camera will hit stores by November for $2150 with an EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens.
