jt said:The specs on the D70 does NOT say 3fps. It says "3.0-inch Variable Angle LCD"
I was just coming to say same thing.
I wonder what is the price point for each of those? $1k8 for 7D2, $1k for 70D? That'd be my guesses.

I need a bit of an education from you guys.
What effects noise at higher ISO or longer shutter speeds? Is it purely processor related or does the pixel size of an APS-C body contribute as well?
I own a 500D and I was put off by the 7D not having a definite advantage when it came to noise.
I so hope this is the one area they focus on. The top Canon APS-C body, that many will attach their 400mm+ glass to should be just better.
That 70D rumor has got to be fake. How can they literally take away features and call it a new camera and sell it for a higher price? The T4i will surpass it in fps? Wow...
I've been waiting for this camera for a year now and these rumors are just a slap to the face. Hopefully it has 6fps and better image quality and AF system than 60D. Give up higher frame rates in video too.

If they can achieve that, then I will be in heaven, if not, then its goodbye Canon. I'm not hanging about if they continue to produce cameras with noise and banding issues but with excessive ISO figures.
Having said that, my present 5DII is OK for the moment, so I would rather they spent more time getting it right than a rushed "knee jerk reaction".

RichM said:I'm anxiously waiting for / saving for the 7d2. Sadly, I'd order today if it were available, without knowing the specs. My expectation is that it will be targeted at the sports photographer, continue to be APS-C, and have significantly improved high ISO performance and somewhat improved focusing. I'm hoping for a price point in the $2,000 - $2,500 range.
For me, I'm wanting for a new sports photography setup, and am quite happy with the 5d2 for landscape/portrait photography. Having 2 bodies (although quite different in nature), provides a measure of insurance.
Fingers crossed for a quick announcement and release....

Just interested, what do you think an $8,000+ 38+MP camera will do for you when you can currently live with a $1,300 21MP 5D MkII? What do you shoot now, and what do you do with your output that would necessitate such an upscale?

I like being able to keep the 1.6x reach that I would have sacrificed to 1.3x with a 1D4 or give up with a 1Dx. If the 7D2 is half the price of a 1Dx or less, I'll buy one in a heartbeat.

If only because Canon didn't learn from the naming confusion between 1Ds and 1D then yes.
Pity that when it comes to camera names Canon are incredibly so unimaginative.

Well, at ISO 800, you actually have more "reach" with the 1D4 than the 7D, because IQ is so much superior on the 1D4, you can crop beyond the 7D cropping.
