My Thought on the new Canon 7D Mark II

I briefly owned the original Canon 7D.  It was great camera for action, but unfortunately the image quality let me down and eventually I got rid of it, and replaced with the Canon 1D III. The new 7D Mark II looks like an impressive upgrade for the 7D.  The auto focus system seems to be greatly improved, and of course, that is one of the most important features for the camera of this kind. I think it's a worthwhile upgrade and will make a lot of Canon users happy.

Even though I don't use the 1D III all that much, but I can't help by thinking that maybe it's time to do the reverse; replace the 1D III with the 7D II.  Crazy, no?  One thing I am not too convinced is the image quality from the 7D II.  The sample images look impressive, but it's out of camera jpeg; what it looks like from RAW is still remains to be seen.

I am sure some people will complain about this camera without 4K video, but I don't believe this camera is aimed at the video segment. I just hope that the sensor will be much improved from the original 7D.
