I'll be putting my first 1DXII on the market shortly, with the second one to follow once I confirm the III is "all that and a bag of chips". The 20.1 MP sensor is a slight disappointment, but it is an entirely new design so I expect a bit of quality boost from that alone. My specific need for that camera is mated up with my 200/400 and 800mm lenses at airshows. Th ability to capture 5.5K RAW video is intriguing, we'll see what the hat capability might allow for. Just in case anyone in the family is thinking about upgrading to the 1DXII, I'm guessing mine will be priced in the mid-3,000 dollar range. They will come with a clean bill of health from CPS prior to delivery.
You will love your new long glass, that particular lens is a great choice and it will open new worlds to you. I look forward to seeing what you create with it.
