Canon officially announces the 7D Mark II

Just seen this review by Larry Becker (probably a repost I guess ) It's more of a walk-through than a review really and I guess he might be trying to sell it too

I feel a little loved and will move out spiders home (seriously, here in the UK we are having am explosion of spiders in our houses!)

Has anyone heard or found a video showing the 4 fps silent mode ?

Quickly go pick some conkers if there are any left, spiders don't like them for some reason and keep away

I'm not playing conkers with spiders!!! (That sounds like a euphemism).

I need a camera with super low light performance, high fps and quick, accurate AF to track these high speed menaces as they charge at me across the floor. If only there was a camera like that...............

Drat, I thought I'd got it back OT. Mind you, do non Brits know what conkers are?

YES! ...

or if you can't afford the 1DX... Preorder the 7D2 !!! or buy 3 for the price of 1 1DX!

I would really really like a 1DX, I am hoping that my 5D MKiii and my new 7D MKii will do it for me so I don't go nuts on a 1DX, but maybe a 1DXI.....

If you get attacked by spiders, please use your 7DII to get a few final pictures. Hopefully using RAW, at a very high ISO and assuming someone can post them posthumously too (I'm guessing your spiders are as scary as mine)

Well, being a Yank, I had to google conkers, not sure about the spider reference either. But I get over there about once a year and would like to talk about it over a pint.

You'll do for me pet (as we say where I come from ) Bring your 5DIII

Just for non Brits and people not of the Commenwealth, Conkers are the seeds of Horse Chestnut trees and kids (sometimes adults) use them in a game of smacking them off each other on the end of a bit of string. If your conkers beats, say two other conkers in a challenge, then it's called a two-ser, and three victories is called a three-ser etc. It used to be popular in schools, until they were banned because they were considered dangerous! Muppets.


Btw it's the World Conker Championships on Sunday if anyone wants to go shoot some seriously exciting sports action

Sorry, last Off topic, Spiders are alleged to be afraid of Conkers...or something like that
