The 7D was announced 8 years prior to the D850 and that is quite a serious difference as far as technology is concerned. Both of these cameras come with the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before diving in to a detailed comparison, below is a quick summary of how the 7D scores versus the D850 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 7D & Nikon D850. The whole galleries are available at Canon 7D Gallery & Nikon D850 Gallery.

For those who are aiming to lug around your camera often, you should factor in its weight and measurements.

Quite often, its tough to picture the difference between sensor measurements purely by reading through specifications. The graphic underneath may offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the 7D and D850.

To sum up, both of the cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The 7D using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field tougher and the Nikon D850 will resolve greater detail with its extra 28 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs much more aggressively. The older 7D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
