It's been a little while since I did this, but as I recall I found that with a Canon 7D MkII, neither an ATEM or Decklink would accept the signal. Despite changing all the settings, it would never be received. Only plugging it into an Atomos Ninja Blade and then sending the signal on its way would let the signal through.
We never found out why, we replaced our cameras with proper video cameras soon after. It could be an HDCP thing, but I can't imagine why Canon cameras would be embedding HDCP when the only person's content you're going to be playing is your own.
With regards to the Sony, it could be a mismatched frame rate thing. Our Sony camcorders always output 50p to their clean outputs no matter what recording settings you choose. The ATEM requires all cameras to use the same standards, so we have to put them through an UpDownCrossHD to run the ATEM at 25p. Could be the same thing with the Canon camera, come to think of it.
