Calling this box an incremental upgrade from my 5DIII and 7DII boxes is generous.
Canon is still using the same old flaps. They lost the point-and-shoot box market to Apple with their flapless boxes. If Canon continues to use the same old flappy design on their boxes they are doomed.
I was hoping for something truly disruptive, but this is nothing more than the same old flapping box they have been using for decades.

A very nice example of wasted earth resources...

In that case, maybe so. But I've found Apple packaging to be pretty frugal. Fairly compact, and made largely from white card. Not exactly extravagant.

Yup. Got dang flap slapper! When will Canon learn to go flapless like Sony? Flapless is the future! When my grandma had her double mastectomy even she agreed flapless is better. Believe me, those were some long thin flaps! C'mon Canon!

Thanks ritholtz!
Now THAT is what gets me more interested - first studio test shots of the 80D
(Though I admit, I had a good chuckle at the many, varied '1DXii' unboxing comments... ) ;D
Cheers!

Not true, they went to court and forced the manufacturers to put a 12" x 12" hole in the bottom of the box on the off chance that they might get a court order to look inside it one day. :

it protected resolution audio opus 21 hifi components (1-2 per box). it is obviously re-useable and could be returned to the dealer too for that purpose.
