Daan, how much is the 7D on Dutch retail market ?
I just got a mailing that it will be in stock at one of the bigger retailer in the Netherlands at noon today. In the mailing they speak of 1739,00 euros, but on the website the price is already down to 1699,00 euros. I saw Calumet offers it for 1650,00 euros, but I don't think they have actual stock yet.
There are always internet sellers who list them for way less (in the 1400-1500) range, but they have no actual stock - and probably won't get the 7D in stock for the coming months. Canon Netherlands likes to distribute any new item through the bigger retailers first.
seems like medium jpg from 7D looks like the noise of large jpg from 5D2
ai servo works faster than 5d2, although in a dingy, dark hall it seemed to keep failing to lock any focus when the 5d2 had no problem on certain subejcts
it almost seemed like the one shot center point af of the 5d2 might be at least as good, if not a touch better when doing f/1.4 work under tough conditions??
mirror/fps WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY faster than on 5D2

More important question: when the 7D locks focus, is it always accurate?

An interesting chart that was posted on POTN. It's been updated in the last couple of days to reflect the 7D. Viewfinder size, in square mm, is slightly bigger than the 1D3!
Loaded CD that came with the Cam all went well on a 64 BIT Vista system. Im looking at photo's from last night, my first save as requested RAW Codec update. Came up again after reboot, selected dont show message again.
Canon RAW Codec 1.5.0 is a software plug-in that, when installed in Windows Vista/Windows XP SP2*/SP3*, enables the import and display of RAW images (with the extension .CR2) taken with Canon cameras

So now there are some 7D's in the wild, can anyone tell me whether, with an f1.2 or f1.4 lens shot wide open, the viewfinder shows deeper depth of focus than the reviewed image on the back of the camera?

This is a great question, and is also related to some questions in this thread:
