Clarity/sharpness seems improved. I always thought the 7D images looked a little soft (Even the RAWs). Not anymore.
Perhaps there were changes to the thickness or quality of the sensor cover glass?
The best test would be comparing RAW files.
Might be a combo of a different AA filter and less split greens on the CFA (if you recall, the 7D images all showed nasty 'mazing' artifacts all over smooth areas due to it using two different greens on the CFA filter, instead of pairs of the same greens, one of the pair was a considerably different green, that tricked the de-bayer algorithms, they managed to overcome that, but at the cost of just a trace of loss of micro-contrast, it was actually amazing that they were able to fight off the mazing while losing only a tiny bit of micro-constrast, the obvious solution would have sacrified considerable resolution).
