There is NOTHING WRONG with the Canon EOS 1Dx Mk2 !!! It is an EXCELLENT camera! I've shot lots of F1, skiing and Football (Soccer!) with it. With decent prime lenses and good lighting, there is nothing you cannot get with this camera!
What IS missing from it however is SHUTTER NOISE REDUCTION and YES I have been asked to LEAVE a meeting room/conference because the parties found the noise of my shutter rather objectionable! I then told them I could shoot VIDEO at 24 fps and get my still photo frames that way!
That is the ONLY THING that is problematic for that camera which is why our parent company bought a few of the Sony A9's for the head office meetings and "Quiet Area" still photo imaging. Canon WILL have to address shutter noise in the next 1Dx Mk3 iteration OR go full Mirrorless on it! They MAY do so yet! There is NO REASON why the 1Dx3 cannot be an R-series mount mirrorless ! They've got the GREAT lenses now!

NOW, I do wish to give a heads-up that whatever you HAVE AVAILABLE ON YOU RIGHT NOW is "Your Camera" !!!
If it's an iWatch, a Gopro Hero, a 720p resolution child's tablet computer, a smartphone, a Canon G-series or yes that venerable old 7D2!
If that is all what you have with you, then TAKE THE SHOT ANYWAYS !!! It's a visual record and even an old half-dead $100 smartphone from 10 years ago can turn out a half-decent shot (maybe even that MILLION DOLLAR shot if the right subject matter is there!).
The below are cheap phone photos but that's all I had on me! I would have LOVED to bring along the 1dx2 BUT since this was unplanned I only had the smartphone .....SOOOOO the MORAL of the story is TAKE THE SHOT with whatever you have on you! Sometimes your photo BECOMES that world-famous million-dollar story!
