Dear, Yes this flash does work with EOS 7D. Canon is curently running a promotion on this flash. Thank you!

Works like a charm....I've used it on the hot shoe and with the wireless feature....I've had no problems...I will say because of the A77 advance technology I fine some time I have to reduce the output power on the flash to prevent over exposure when the camera is set to auto ISO. Other than that I have no problem using my 5600hd flash with the A77.

I'm not really sure, but I wouldn't buy this flash if I were you! It's no better than the on board flash! Go ahead and spend the extra $40 and get the Canon Speedlite 270 if you are looking for a cheap flash that'll get you by!

Thanks NutMac. I just got the Canon XSi so I'm guessing that would control this flash (being very new itself). The one thing I didn't consider before was that the price of this new 430EX II will be at list price for a while, making it a lot more expensive that the current model! That will put it out of my price range, so I guess I'm sticking with the older technology for now! Thanks again,Stew

This did work with my Canon 7D and still does with Canon 6D. I would recommend getting a trigger that works with AA batteries. On the +ve it has really good range and lasts for a long time.

I use it with a 7D and works perfect. Be aware that 7D and 5D both can read UDMA 7 but dont run much faster than UDMA 6

The flash is a Yongnuo (speedlite YN560). It works on some Canons, but not Rebel, as in my Canon T3i. (T3i = Rebel)

Yes. It does. I use it on my 60D, my 7D and now my 6D and it works wonderfully! I love this flash! I would love to show you a few pictures taken with this flash on my 6D They turned out much better than I expected.

I use it with my Canon 5D and Canon 7D with no problem. It may have been a problem with flash units made years ago but I haven't experienced any problems with the Vivitar 285 I purchased recently. You can get a hot shoe adaptor to plug in the sync cord that is made to supposedly buffer the flash so it won't fry the camera and I used those with my older 285's.

Mine is not working with my 6D :( I took it to the camera store and tried it on another 6D and it did the same thing, the flash will fire but the picture will still be dark. I would say on a test of 15 shots, 14 would be dark and 1 would be correct, even though the flash fired each time. We tested it on each of the modes on the flash as well as manual and auto modes on the camera, always with the same negative results. I then placed the flash back on my canon T2i and it worked perfectly on my old canon as it always did :/.

I am using with a 7D with no problem. It is cheap enough to try even if you are not sure.

Works perfect with my Canon 7d. I use the remotes to trigger old school vivitar 283 strobes. The remote camera trigger works well too. As for use with the Nikon cameras, call Fotodiox. They answered my question quickly. Pat.

My understanding is that it works perfectly well with all digital SLRs ... works fine with my 7d though I have not used it extensively. Build quality is impressive, metal shoe, etc.

Don't know about the Canon 7D and Eye-Fi... Works great with the Nikon D70s and Eye-fi. The Nikon is an older camera that would only take up to 4 GB Compact Flash cards that are hard to find now.. also had to be Lexar, Sandisk, Panasonic or Toshiba but those brands of SD cards and the Eye-Fi all work great in the Nikon now. I will say that having worked for Nikon, they (and probably Canon will not admit to this adapter working with the camera because it is not an "approved" fix. They will not stand behind it. However, rarely will a card damage the camera so it will either work or not.. and not break the camera. Hope this helps. David C

This card may not be compatible with the 7d. Check with more Canon users. I shoot Nikon and it works like a charm.

Yes. This works fine with canon 7D if you are not using big lens. With big lens its difficult to hold for long time.

It will work with the 7D. It works best with EF equivalent lenses and not so much EF-S lenses in my experience. Even with the EF lenses, such as my Canon 100-400 L it works OK at 100 but I need to manual focus at 400. It works OK with my Tamron 70-200 f2.8. Also works fine with my lower focal length zooms. I don't have any primes to test it with.
