Canon 7D MII vs Nikon D600

Below, we will be reviewing the Canon 7D MII vs Nikon D600, both Advanced DSLR cameras by competitors Canon and Nikon. The sensor resolution of the 7D MII (20MP) and the D600 (24MP) is pretty comparable but the 7D MII (APS-C) and D600 (Full frame) feature totally different sensor sizing.

The 7D MII was brought out 23 months later than the D600 which makes the cameras a generation apart from one another. Both of these cameras come with the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before delving through a detailed comparison, below is a short summation of how the 7D MII matches up versus the D600 for portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

If you are looking to lug around your camera often, you should factor its weight and size. The Canon 7D MII provides outside measurements of 149mm x 112mm x 78mm (5.9" x 4.4" x 3.1") having a weight of 910 grams (2.01 lbs) and the Nikon D600 has specifications of 141mm x 113mm x 82mm (5.6" x 4.4" x 3.2") and a weight of 850 grams (1.87 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an ILC will differ dependant on the lens you have chosen at that moment. Below is the front view proportions comparison of the 7D MII and the D600.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability score of the 7D MII and D600 is 55 and 56 respectively.

Quite often, it's difficult to see the gap in sensor measurements only by seeing technical specs. The graphic here will offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the 7D MII and D600.

As you have seen, the two cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 7D MII due to its smaller sensor will make achieving shallower DOF more challenging and the Nikon D600 will show more detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop shots much more aggressively. The newer 7D MII will have a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
