Canon EOS 7D Mark III Coming First Half of 2018 [CR2]

.while most on this forum seem to think the only purpose for more DR is to purposefully underxpose photos

No, that's just a sarcastic dig at the obsession with DR - we know what the "advantages" of higher low ISO DR are, we're just utterly unpersuaded that they're as important as the DRones make them out to be.

I want my DR advantage to be at the other end of the histogram, and Canon bodies are excellent in the highlights.

Because of the 80D is a superb APS-C stills camera, there isn't a lot of reason to consider a 7DII today.

You keep saying that, despite it having been pointed out to you several times that it's nonsense.

Why?

We don't all sit in well-lit studios shooting watches and food packaging.

Give us a clean high-ISO, high-DR cropped for action/wildlife, one that extracts the very best from L quality lenses, and I'll buy.

That's the 7D Mk II...

Ok bud, you can love your camera without pretending it does things everyone knows it cannot.

So the xxD line still won't have 4k and the only 4k video aps-c will be a fixed screen model costing 2,000+USD? Don't do us any favors canon.

+1!

I have several pictures taken with the 7DII at ISO 6400 that look very good, both in sharpness and color, and with acceptable noise levels. It doesn't match the 1DX, but that is asking for too much.
