Major Crop - Test
Went out today and shot a couple of Sandhill Cranes with the 7D II.

ISO 200, 500mm f/4. This shot is 6.6% of the original frame.

Exported the RAW file to PS, converted to a 720 px jpeg.

I'll post the full frame in the first comment to give a reference.

Pretty decent details for such a ridiculous crop. Just playing...

Hi Keith,

That is fairly good for a monster crop. I like the whole-crane view with those rust patches on the wing..................Jim

The more I see of the 7d II the more impressed I am. I will probably have to start saving my nickels and dimes.

Not a major crop, but see this thread from a week ago for samples at higher ISO's
