Re: Just got a 7D

I also have both cameras , there a pleasure to use .

I shoot quite a lot with the Dynax 7 , but I take the 7d now and again to keep it working .

To keep it working o.k , fire the shutter every so often , it seems to help preventing the shutter issue.

Before you do the firmware update , give the camera some good usage to make sure the battery is in good condition and holds a charge well .

If it goes flat doing the update , the camera will probably become a paperweight .

Not that it needs much power to do it , but even with a new camera and battery , you wouldn't take the chance .

.

I must get around to posting some pictures I took with mine when I took it on holiday with me in March .

.

Enjoy your new camera .
