re: #144 Rightwingconspirator

Okay looks like the specs are confirmed, they are actually finally producing the much delayed model. This is sure to be my next camera. No images yet to be had. No price announced yet I will guess $1800 for the body. I’ll probably pre order and cross my fingers there are not early production quality issues.

Our specifications for the EOS 7D Mark II look to be confirmed. You can get our full specification list here. There’s nothing really new here, other than the max ISO being 16000, which we thought this was a typo in our information and changed it in our spec list. The other new feature we see is the intervalometer. I expect to see this camera announced on Monday with availability in late October or early November.

Nice, but no reason for me to upgrade from my 60d. I will allow that the 15-85 is a very nice lens, that’s what is usually parked on my 60d. (the T1i gets the lower grade 18-85 usually).
