Canon can't change the image sensor format of a new 7D from APS-C to APS-H or FF and still maintain the product title "7D". If anything the 7D name would be eliminated and a new name will be used.

Yes we know. It was a joke.

Oh haha! :-[ I just read the 1DX thread and figured that was a joke... but this one had a poll so I thought it was serious... apologies

I believe the next 7D will be APS-C. What I am more curious about is when it will be released. Given that new firmware has just been announced for the current 7D, my guess is that we will not see a 7D mkii until sometime in 2013.

I want to believe that will be APS-H... but i voted APS-C :-\.

The new firmware was official announced ??

I think the firmware rumour has been morphed into a fact

What we dont know at this point is:

- will the current 7D have minor updates to become the 70D
- will there be a replacement for the 7D
- would Canon reposition the 7D replacement as an 'entry level pro' sports camera (putting the price to the 5DIII level)

There are so many options that at this point it is pure speculation

There are two possibilities:

1. If canon will release a entry level FF camera than 7D line will cease to exist. they will move 70D little bit up (no reason to have two APS-C high end cameras).
2. If there will be no entry level FF than 7D2 will be improved and released in winter 2012, early 2013.

There is a big possibility that Nikon D400 will not be released (for the same reason... D600)and they will move little bit up the D7000 replacement.

We'll see UFOs before an APS-H 7D... :P

UF nailed it. With one caveat. The entire nomenclature of entry level and semi pro wording will become a tangled mess and no one will ever agree unless Canon decides to make just two camera bodies and no more.

On message boards it is so easy to do this Brian. They cannot "see" you therefore they retort whatever insults they care to because there is no personal connection or consequence.

Actually, there are several moderators who try to monitor posts, and remove those which insult users. Rather than reply and start a flame war, its better just to report a inappropriate post. The forum is able to keep track of warnings and that can lead to a ban, but thats not a common situation.

We try to discourage flaming others, so posters should read their posts carefully before posting. To make things even more complex, we have different cultures represented with different perceptions and some of them may think that posts that are allowed elsewhere are acceptable here.

There are some general rules in the site information area that we try to enforce.

Thanks for being such a good group, and be civil :)

And my posts were deleted because????

I was civil, reasoned and polite. I said nothing unkind about anyone, but simply disagreed with an oft-repeated (ad nauseam) perspective. I did not even reference belief in UFOs.

Apparently I expressed an opinion that someone didn't like. I mourn the loss of Karma and detest this mindless censorship. (Plus much of this thread no longer makes any sense!)
