I've been through 4 of them beginning in mid-December. Each one got progressively better, but the first 3 weren't acceptable. Number 3 went to Canon. Exchanged the 3rd one later January for one that was a screamer, which has now taken the swim, so we'll see if I can bring it back to life.
That said, while I think most of my issues were the camera, I can't say all of the issues were the camera. Once I got the 4th one and it started banging out results, I compared my settings to my 1Dx. All of them were the same except the case I was using. I found that the 7d2 did much better using single point expansion (4) in case 6 when shooting waterfowl. I also learned, and have had it confirmed with CPS, that this camera, unlike any previous body I have owned, likes to track a subject for about 1 second before it really locks on and does it's thing. My 1Dx is more point, focus, shoot while the 7d2 seems to be point, track, focus, shoot.
I'll be adding it back to the bag shortly.
