The Canon EOS R7 Mark II is in the Wild

Thank you for the update :). The main question for me is whether the rolling shutter of the R7 has been improved significantly enough. I hope the readout speed would be closer to the R5ii, but realistically, expect it to at best be around the r6iii's.
I agree. The question is....is it a cropped sensor R5ii or a cropped sensor R6iii? The R7 inherited a sensor from a DSLR cousin that never had any sensor read out speed issues because of the mechanincal shutter of those models. This is the first Canon dedicated Mirrorless cropped sensor with a consideration to readout speed. The big question is...is it based off the R6iii or the R5ii architecture: will it have a fast non stacked or a super fast stacked sensor?
Only canon knows at this moment. However a sub 14m/s readout will be a massive improvement over the R7's readout speed. Hey...we would love a sub 5m/s readout though.....
A common user interface will be a big improvement for the R7 linage, dual cards (One CF express) is another boon....as will be the improved AF capability. Maybe a superior resolution EVF of the R6III will be cool too. I tend to find the sub 3 mill pixel EVF's to be grainy and jumpy. Over that res, I can't seem to see any difference between them other than contrast.
I'm really looking forwards to this camera, I think it needs to be a camera that's greater than the sum of it's parts / specification.
