Very nice... Most of what I have seen come from it video-wise seems to be a little saturated. Not sure if it is just me - or if they are pp'ing for that effect.

 

Sweet. I don't think I can manually focus that well. :/

 

wndrlst, Where did get your 7D from? I got to play with the 7D kit yesterday at Best Buy and I am definitely going to get one. Best Buy wouldn't sell me theirs yesterday because it was the only one they had.

 

was reading comments...says he boosted the sat a little.

The image is SUPER contrasty...and the bright sunlight stuff doesnt appear to have as much latitude as the night stuff in dublin I saw.

 

I pre-ordered it online from a vendor at POTN shortly after the announcement in September. Even places like Adorama & B&H aren't able to fulfill all of their pre-orders yet. I think it's rotten that Best Buy wouldn't sell you one when they actually had it in stock. Wtf? My understanding is that Canon should be shipping more out this week, though - good luck!

 

Speaking of this online vendor... did you get your grip yet or hear anything about it? Someone reported getting theirs from him, but I haven't heard a peep even after e-mailing him and posting in the thread.

 

She didn't order a grip

 

Well fine then. I didn't need her help anyway.

Maybe he read my other posts where I ordered the Canon battery from someone else to save a few bucks and decided he didn't want to sell me the grip anymore.

 

Have there been anymore rumors of a full frame 1080/24p camera from Canon? Friend was asking me about it yesterday.

 

Canonrumors.com says there is going to be some sort of announcement next week, possibly the 1D Mark IV.
Supposedly a Nikon D3 competitor. Not sure if it does
movie mode or not, but it's 1.3x crop factor.

Well when there are two Canon rumor threads...

 

i thought this one was strictly about the 7D

 

But why do we need an extra thread for it?

 

yeah this is only 7D -

 

its 500 posts relating pretty much only to the 7D. I think it would be kinda foolish to merge this with the general rumor thread, at this point. We had a very pointed and articulate conversation about just the 7D, and I do think the significance of the camera warrants a separate thread.

 

Most of that was post whoring. But is see what you're saying. The title says Canon Rumors, then it looks like the 7D was added later.

 

no now its 500.


grrr... 501

 

no it always had the 7D to it.

 

well there may have been some of that.

I'll rename it so it looks less like the other thread -

 

I said it looks like... just like what they do over in car talk and auto news.

While video looks good. I'm just not in the mood to mess with the editing. I did a couple when my son was younger. What a PITA it was. Don't want to go there again.

am I the only one who gets annoyed by the music added to these videos? I almost always mute it.

 

yea some of the music is pretty annoying..

 

Looks like Canon screws the earlier adopters.

New Rebates include 7D and it is only for those who purchased after 12 Oct 2009. Something new for this rebate program. Canon make it a point to say that you must also register
your purchases to get the rebate.

 

i like the title change

 

Meh. $50. While I think it's pretty crummy of them, given that we're guinea pigs, and shouldn't be punished for that. $50 out of $1700 is a pretty piddly rebate. Especially compared to the doubles & triples they used to do. Besides, Moe & I got ours for $50 off the MSRP anyway.

 

$50? gee thanks.... let me go buy some socks with that...

 

Those rebates the first year I started buying equipment were sweet. The double and triple one's.

 

yeah I'm guessing Canon kinda did a after those...

$50 can buy a pretty nice dinner

 

honestly is someone gonna go OOOH $50 HELL YES IMMA BUY ME A 7D!!!!

 

$50 off is better than $0 or +$50

 

hmm.. never noticed that the shrug smilie lifts up one eyebrow then both eyebrows
