According to PetaPixel, Canon has made their T7 and SL3 cameras incompatible with third-party flashes by eliminating the central hot shoe pin from those models: https://petapixel.com/2019/05/03/canon-made-its-new-entry-level-dslrs-incompatible-with-3rd-party-flashes/

Not a new tactic for Canon at all.

Saw the T7 at Costco and can confirm that the center contact is gone. Nasty.
