I would question his methods and if he is being realistic. Anyone who expects a non-professional camera to perform like a professional camera is not realistic. The 7D costs $1699 and the 1D Mark III new was $4500. So his expectations are unlrealistic in the review. He wants the 7D to focus like a camera that cost $2800 more. You could buy two 7D\'s and an $800 lens for what the 1D mark III cost new. He also compares the 7D to a D700 costing $2700, a D3 costing $5000, and a 1D mark IV costing $5000.
The Nikon D300 would be a fair comparison. Or another manufacturer camera of similar cost.
He also seems to have more problems with focus then others on this webiste, on the net, and from my experience.
