Is that a new L-bracket for that combination or does the original 7D's bracket fit the new camera and battery grip?

Dear Friend Mr. BLFPhoto .
Yes, and NO, ---Yes,That my Old 7D L-Bracket that can fit 7D MK II, BUT NO, Not Good ( Part of ) to use old Bracket with 7D MK II, because it Block the Battery Grip for remove the battery , Similar to 1DX, 1DS and 1D= Battery move from the left end the L-Bracket at the left end too.

Mr. Surapon, I wish you many wonderful images with your new 7Dii but I have some bad news for you.

GAS is incurable. Us photographers will have it for a lifetime ;D

Please do share your images as I still have to wait two weeks before I can get my 7Dii :-[

Ha, Ha, Ha, Dear friend Mr. Sabaki .
You are right on the target----Life long illness for GAS. Illness--------Ha, Ha, Ha.
Yes, Sir, I will shoot the Photos and compare between 7D and 7D MK II at the same subject and the same lens, for you to compare.
Have a great weekend, Sir.

Well, as soon as the Adobe people get a 7D2 codec into their next ACR so I can shoot RAW (and not have to putz with DPP), I will join you in scratching the GAS itch. The thing that kills me is hearing the shutter (the-digital-picture has sound files up) - that's the sound of my bank account leaking money.... ;D Just in time for Eagle-watching season here in Missouri/Illinois.

Hey congrats! I'm sure you will love the new MK II!
I got mine on Monday Nov. 3 and got out a few days to try it on BIF action (bald eagles, osprey, and a gull fight over a caught bird)

Here are my photo blog posts for the week if anyone wants to see how I made out.
