Many of us will have the much-awaited 7D Mark II in our hands by this weekend or by early next week.

What functionality will you check/test first with your new 7D2?

How brick walls look @ 800% zoom compared to what the internet believes they should look like.

Going out and shooting some birds! So 10FPS, and AF and high ISO IQ

That's so 2012, Jeremy. Get with the program already. Shoot a brick wall in the dark and push it 5-6 stops and then view at 800%.

...and call it "real world" testing! That'll add some extra validity to it!

Agreed. And then start a thread complaining how it doesn't perform as well as your A7R.

Hey Mike,

I get first dibs when you are ready to sell your 7D Mark II

Probably shoot the rear of my new center-pinch lens cap and compare to my old 7D side-squeeze lens cap pics. I bet the center-pinch design has less banding noise than the legacy caps.

Don't forget to complain about the banding after that.

Aren't you supposed to shine a bright light at it with the cap on first?

I hope to have mine on Friday. If so, I'll be taking it to the Empire Ranch Roundup in Sonoita, Arizona. I won't be focusing on trying any particular functionality, though.

So 10FPS...


When I was testing the beta 7DM2, and fellow birders around ask questions on the 10 fps, I remove the CF card and just press the shutter button. The 10 fps burst sounded like my grandma's old pedal-powered sewing machine..... music to my ears.

Just checked the B&H website and I see they are stating a Thursday October 30th shipping date. I pre-ordered early, but no word just yet.

As an early adopter of the 7D, I won't be making the same mistake again. Maybe in 3-6 months I'll make a call based on the beta testers feedback
