If you’re a Canon EOS photographer then you’ve probably considered getting a Canon film body to use with your lenses at one point or another–and the Canon EOS Elan 7 was bound to come up in your choices of available cameras. For years, I’ve been using my Elan 7 as a backup body to my 5D Mk II and my 6D. Crazily enough, I’m also not alone–I know a number of photographers that do the same thing. These photographers shoot film at times and photograph subject matter ranging from portraits to campaigns on the American political trail. If you’re a Canon EOS Lens mount owner, the Elan 7 will make a lot of sense to you. Pros and Cons Pros • Reliable • Pretty simple to use • Affordable • Works with most flash systems (the exception being Phottix’s radios) Cons • Considering that this camera can be had at such a fantastic, low price there is nothing to complain about. Gear Used The Canon EOS Elan 7 has been used over time with Sigma lenses, Adorama flashes, and various types of film.

Canon Ergonomics When you look at the Canon EOS Elan 7 SLR, you’ll obviously see just how much simpler it is in design than the company’s digital bodies. The front of the camera has very few controls: depth of field preview and lens release truly being the most of it.

When you look at the top of the camera, what you’ll find are loads of other cool things: a mode dial that also controls whether or not the camera is on (one of two), dive dial, LCD screen, exposure dial, hot shoe, and shutter button. You’ll spend lots of time looking at this area. Move to the back, and you obviously don’t see an LCD screen. Instead, you’ll find buttons like function, another on/off dial and the directional pad inside the aperture wheel. The back on/off switch activates the Aperture dial. Build Quality This camera isn’t the 1V at all, so don’t expect any sort of weather sealing. Instead, think of this as being comparable to something above the Rebel series but below the 00D lineup of cameras.

At the same time though, give it all the functionalities that a pro photographer could really want: seven autofocus points (great for portraits) and all the barebones essentials that a camera needs for you to take a picture. Then throw away all those other bells and whistles. Canon should really make another camera like this. The higher Rebel cameras sort of remind me of the Elan 7, but this camera takes 35mm film. A full frame Rebel would be a beautiful thing.

Ease of Use When you’re shooting as you normally would, what you’ll find on the LCD screen is all sorts of information; but nothing majorly overwhelming. Remember: this is film. You can’t change the white balance of daylight or tungsten film. Instead you’ll need to use filters and gels. Pressing the function button on the back of the camera gives you a whole new set of variables that help you control the camera better.

You can manipulate these variables using the dials. Autofocus The Canon EOS Elan 7 has seven autofocus points. My version of the camera has them not being so bright overall–so you’ll really need to look for them when you select one or the other. Generally speaking, I’ve never had a problem with the center focusing point. Using the others gave me some pause though.

This is really tough when it comes to portraits as I often need to decide if I’m going to focus and recompose or just shoot with the focusing point. It often comes down to how much light is in the scene and just how contasty the area I want to focus on is. Image Samples Agfa APX 400 Kono 400 film Natura 1600 CineStill 800T.
