Canon 7DII - Did you preorder?

[Canon1]

Time to see if folks put their money where there mouth is... or not. Just for fun, no trolling please.

 

[DominoDude]

I never preorder. Those who gets a boner for everything new, and have an abundance of money can take the penalty of the higher prices in the beginning. If I buy something I wait until the price level settles.

 

[Don Haines]

Yes, pre-order is placed.

 

[Loswr]

For all that the 7DII is shaping up to be a mini-1D X, I'm just going to stick with my full-sized 1D X.

 

[Pancho]

As soon as it will be referenced in my French dealer, I will pre-order it...

 

[wfmiller]

Yep, pre-ordered!!

 

[DominoDude]

Looks at the replies above and I feel soft-ish...

Can't preorder yet as it's not available on any sites in the UK (no, not even Amazon). So much for being 6-8 hours ahead of America. Looks like you're days ahead in terms of Canon's priorities

yes it is. Park Cameras have been offering pre orders sinch the announcement, as have WEX.

 

[FEBS]

YES, even that in Belgium there is still a Non Disclosure active today.

Just send confirmation to my dealer to pre-order this camera. I will use this 7D2 together with my 5D3 and 1Dx. I think this might be a great trio. One on tripod and 2 on blackrapid double strap.

Think the 7D2 with lenses like the 70-200 2.8 mkII or the 300 2.8 mkII might be a great combination for all kind of actions.

 

[westr70]

Yep.

Don't! I feel exactly the same about preorders... I'll wait until the (very good) price has fallen and until the first serious test are out!

 

[Maui5150]

Weighing in on it. Would like to see some image/noise comparisons, but looks like a solid body and I think overall improved over the 7D. Would have liked a bigger sensor, but at the same time if the buffer stats hold up, the camera seems insane in what it can capture in burst mode, even for raw.

I probably won't pre-order - but pick up up for when the Holiday sales start

 

[siegsAR]

Nope; nor planning in the future, timing and all that's why.. A very solid body though, specs-wise.

I already have the 70D and the next body I'm gonna have will be a fullframe; by then the 70D will either go or retained as my cropup.

Even as a Nikon guy, I'm close to pre-ordering.
It's a revelation to see a new "focused" product - dedicated to high speed, great AF, pro body.
Have been waiting for this kind of camera, but Nikon keeps releasing "balanced", slow-ish, new models, most of them reaching too much downwards to the consumer level.

 

[sanj]

Not yet, but I may.

 

[hd02fatboy]

Not yet, checking Canons website shows availability not for another two months, around Nov 17th.
For me, football season will be about over which would be my primary use of the camera. This gives me some time to review the legit end user reviews when they start appearing.

 

[3kramd5]

No. I may buy one down the road, but I see no need to pre-order.
