Have harvested 650D, 700D, 6D and now I run with the 7D Mark II. Love all the settings (particularly AF) and AF is amazing fast. Also loves construction quality and it feels sturdy as hell. Sometimes lack tiltable screen. Do not lack the touch-screen. Certainly lacks WiFi.

Canon EOS 7D Mark II
After publishing a detailed Canon EOS 7D Mark II First Look in September, we have now received a production unit. It was supplied with the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens , which we reviewed in July 2012.

Under the hood the 7D Mark II is an entirely different beast than the original 7D. It appears that instead of focusing on increased resolution, Canon focused on improving virtually every other system on the camera to make it easier for photographers to capture the the photos they want.
Pros:
- 10 frames per second shooting
- 65 point all cross-type autofocus sensor
- EV -3 sensitivity for center AF point
- Fast autofocus
- iTR metering sensor with face detection and subject recognition and tracking
- Dual-Pixel autofocus for live view and video
- Control layout virtually identical to 5D Mark...
Cons:
- iTR struggles to accurately track moving subjects
- especially fast ones
- Comparatively poor base ISO dynamic range and exposure latitude in Raw
- Spot-metering not linked to AF point
- Soft video lacks detail
- Long screen blackout during live view shooting
- No AF with continuous shooting in live view,...

Outstanding APS-C sensor camera - especially for under $2000
It is clear Canon made a few sacrifices in order to get other features in the 7D Mark II. First, they still went with the APS-C crop sensor. It isn't horrible and saves a lot of money.
Pros:
- Very fast burst mode
- focusing is fantastic (especially auto focus tracking)
- many options to custom tailor the camera to your needs
- great high ISO
Cons:
- No Wifi
- No vertical holding mode without the battery grip
- fixed LCD can be a bummer at times

Pros:
- Good image quality
- Decent burst performance
- Fast
- reliable AF
Cons:
- Lacks 4K video recording
- No Wi-Fi

Canon EOS 7D Mark II DSLR Review
Released in 2009, the original Canon EOS 7D has become a firm favourite APS-C Digital SLR, and impressively has lasted well for a 5 year old camera, a testament to how popular the camera is.
Pros:
- 10fps continuous shooting - max 9.5fps with C-AF
- Improved noise performance compared to 70D
- Tough weather-sealed magnesium alloy body
- Quick live view shutter response and focus speeds
- Dual axis electronic level
- 65 cross-type AF points
- USB3.0 socket
- 100% viewfinder coverage
- GPS built-in,...
Cons:
- High Price
- Does not feature Wi-Fi
- Images can appear soft straight from the camera
- Separate port covers would be good to help weather sealing
- Tilting screen would be a benefit for video

Show stopper for action photos
The autofocus and speed of the 10fps makes this the perfect tool for what I do, which is adventure sports photography. It is built like a tank, too, so it can put up with some ruggedness. I've shot outside in the rain and snow and its done great.
Pros:
- Easy To Use
- Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus
- Fast Shutter Speed
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
Cons:
- Short Battery Life
- Small LCD Screen
