7D, why would I want that camera. It has ghosting problems, and I shoot BIF a lot. It may have focus problems. It will take forever for Adobe to upgrade ACR. It can't possibly give good high ISO results with the 18 mp. It can't be great, it only cost $1700. What a DUD!

Someone is either being sarcastic or trying to pick a fight :lol:
I'll check this thread tomorrow, it should be an amusing read before it gets locked.

I think the 7D is disappointing for sure.. the 5DII is too tho AF wise. along with some other things that canon should be putting into their cameras. like off centre Spot metering on more AF points/more AF points spread throughout the frame and so on.....

The 7D has ghosting problems.. The 50D produces noisy image at high ISO.. The 5D MkII has banding in the shadows at low ISO.. The xxD series is too small.. The 1D series is too expensive..

When people that are unhappy finally commit to something and make a switch. Unfortunately, it's enough for some people to just complain.
