Update: Confirmed its USD $1700! Amazon.com has it already (fast sia!): [link]

My initial views: OMG...this 7D is super tempting sia!

Now that am planning to get 1DIII, this feature-loaded (new ones especially) 7D is just making me anticipate for the next 1D release.... woah kaoz.

Lets see how this monster can perform...

But really this is a great improvement by canon in technology. The viewfinder using LCD, no wonder they can achieve "what you see is what you get" :thumbsup:

Several new buttons... :think:

Wow.... then Retail price should be in the $2599-2699 range here.... making Street price around $2300++ for body. :think:

Just checked out the hands on preview by DPreview, it really seems good as far as specs and fucntion goes. Alot of AF tweaking now. Bye Bye to 9 point af! (Now lets wait for 5Dmk3 with all the goodies from 7D in 2 years )

Very true.... lets not get too excited. There isn't any IQ test done yet.... and is there a full review done by anyone.... I still remember 'HOW GOOD' the new 50D sensor was 'suppose' to be.... :sweat:

Haiyah, for all you know, all these rumour sites could be working hand-in-hand with Canon to change the mind of customers who were planning to make a new purchase of a DSLR cameras, possibly other brands. Teasing will always work. Agree?

 

[zerartul]

But its no longer a rumor isnt it haha.

 

[phoakm]

Completed reading the pages.
It seems that I am going to drop the 1D series. :bsmilie:
Already ask for the local price.

 

[eow]

this what i like abt canon...
with this 7D, there will be lot of cheap 2nd hand 40/50D and 1series available for sale in bns soon

 

[rendition]

But its no longer a rumor isnt it haha.

No, I was referring to when it was still a 'rumour' and how it can affect the market.

 

[hetfieldpaul]

7D :bigeyes:

 

[zerartul]

Its finally time to retire those 1d mk2s haha.

 

[cantaresg]

yah.. wait for dpreview or other sites make a full comparison... It certainly looks tempting, if a full review turns out good.

 

[Pinoy]

Imaging Resource has quite detailed hands-on preview of -- along with JPG samples from -- 7D. You guys gotta check it out.

The samples look goooooodddd!
