Canon EOS 7D Raw ISO Noise Test

I came across to borrow a unit of EOS 7D from Aron Chang after I sold out my entire Canon gears. It's a bit boring without camera to play haha :D . Despite many time Mr.Aron who generously lent me this so called the "King of crop sensor professional level DSLR body" , I never really did a decent comparison until yesterday.
People say 7D ISO Noise control is good, and all what I see from majority people are doing JPG format test only.
Now I going to show you the cropped part of each 1 stop increment test starting from ISO 100...ISO 200... ISO 400.. and so on.

So people who considering upgrade to EOS 7D just for better ISO noise control should you think again as there are newer body like EOS 60D which I personally think it should perform better or the same as EOS 7D.
However, EOS 7D is not made for people who concerning ISO performance. The release of EOS 7D mainly targeting professional photographers who need the superb AF performance and the 8 frames per second high speed continuous burst which is ultimately useful for sports action and also wildlife due to the crop factor gives you longer reach.

Well, besides it is not full frame sensor it is pretty perfect for crop sized sensor camera.
That is why people named it as the "King of crop sized sensor camera" :D
