Before I get to my question, I want to make it clear that I am not trying to fan any flames here between those that have posted (sometimes contentiously) about the 7D\'s \'mazing issue\'. Without turning this thread into a back-and-forth arguement, I genuinely want to understand how to \'see\' the \'mazing\' that\'s been discussed ad nauseum.
My question/observation is the following: I\'ve had my 7D now for just a few days and I haven\'t seen any \'mazing\' as has been described in multiple posts here. However, I did notice that when I view a RAW image beyond 100%, I can see the actual pixels of the image. I\'m not saying that some people are not genuinely having a problem but I do want to fully understand what I should look for. At low ISO on an OOF area, all I see @ 100% (using DPP) is OOF (with maybe just a few sharpening artifacts). When I view @ 200%, I see alot of blocky pixels so I don\'t know what difference any \'mazing\' would make at this point. Is the \'mazing\' pattern larger, smaller, or the same size as the blocks of pixels?
