Canon 7D Manual Audio Control - by Brian Galford

Don't buy anything until the 7D has manual audio control. Because so many of us are one man bands much of the time, notwithstanding talk of two-person double system sound, are we really going to change our mode of operation just because suddenly a tool was taken away from us in one model? As the article intimated, maybe a firmware upgrade is all that's needed. It sounds like the 7D has everything you want (rolling shutter included ; > ) except for a serious compromise in sound. When that is fixed, the camera will be lots more ready for primetime.
