must be hard being a Pro, getting a beta of the MK II and an 800mm lens to play with
. But those waves are amazing, and agree the colours are really good.Canon has tweaked the CFA again, but I would welcome a jump (for Canon) in sensor noise reduction through the ADC.

Not sure if this is the case, but the various YouTube videos which mentioned on sensor ADC have been withdrawn. Chuck Westfall, Canon USA has, according to Dpreview, gone back to product engineering in Japan as he was not briefed about the ADC (got all this from FM forums)...

looking at the actual chip you can see it's pretty dramatically different.

after downloading and viewing a few of these images i have to say that the improvement over the 1DX is not noticeable IMO.
I’ve looked at 100,000 plus shots I’ve taken with the 1dx at ISO 3200 and above....looks the same to me.
the reason for upgrading are all the small improvements/upgrades as others have said.

A couple of things to note here.
First is that you don't need to push more than 3 stops to see a large difference in shadows noise at ISO 100. There are a couple of people on this forum who mocked improved DR because they assumed it only made a difference when pushed 5+ stops and have been on a snarky campaign to discredit those who want more DR.
Secondly, the red color channel seems to hold up very well and not clip prematurely like many previous Canon cameras. The super-high ISO shots look really good on the 1DX II.
Thirdly, and most importantly. For those who always break out the market share data to defend Canon and help prove a point that Canon knows their market far better than any "armchair internet chump". Why would the all-knowing Canon make improvements to low ISO DR? Either Canon are now idiots for putting money into something that doesn't matter [sic] or the smart Canon is very aware that a significant enough portion of the market wants/demands such a feature. Ha!

I concur. The improvement is as much as I hoped it would be. Looking back at my photos from the last 4 years, I shoot overwhelmingly at high ISO, so this camera cannot arrive soon enough.

Looks like this might be a stacked die design with the sensor on top and the ADCs and associated electronics on a second die mounted underneath it. I suspect this because their substrate is different with what looks like through-hole pins instead of a surface mount lead frame. Just a supposition.
