DETAILS
The 7D Mark II is also weather resistant so that you can keep shooting in the rain. Included in this package is a battery grip that you can optionally attach to the bottom of your camera and double your battery life – allowing you to shoot for an entire game. The lens' rotating tripod collar attaches directly to a monopod, which provides enough support to keep you from fatiguing but is ultra portable and still gives you full mobility when you need to chase down the action. Simply rotate the collar to shoot in portrait orientation. The monopod is made from carbon fiber, so it is lightweight, and can be adjusted from about 1.5' to over 5' quickly with just a twist of the rubber locks. With this package, you get 1 in-camera LP-E6N and one spare for the battery grip (or just to have on-hand). The LP-E6N is a higher-powered version of the original LP-E6. If you happen to have LP-E6's, you can still use them with this camera. The N version is designed to accommodate the CPU and AF upgrades Canon put into the 7D Mark II.
Overall, this is a simple but practical and robust package for anybody shooting track and field sports and is particularly ideal for school sports photographers, parents, and local sport journalists. It is also a fine setup for outdoor graduation ceremonies or any event you want to document when stuck back in the bleachers. It packs plenty of punch without the cumbersome load of a lot of sports-ready gear.
