Bought a New Camera .. Canon 7d Mk2

I was waiting for this upgrade for a while .. put myself on a pre-order list and received it last week.

Similar to the current 7d (which I own), but much faster overall, faster frame rate (10 fps vs about 6), much better auto-focus capabilities, dual card (SDCard and CompactFlash), and supposedly better noise control in high ISO settings.

The last one I'm not seeing so much .. indoor shooting is still better with my Canon 5dmk3.

The frame rate is SOOOOO much faster. For sports, it makes a big difference. I'm keeping a lot more shots since I get more "money shots" and the focus is better. Camera also has built-in GPS tagging, but no WiFi.

All-in-all a superb, if not the best, sports camera under $5000.

For a wedding photographer .. the 5d3 is better .. unless you have adequate light. It's not bad indoors .. especially with a strobe, but skin tones aren't as nice as the full frame under ISO 3600 or 4000 .. granted, your wife probably isn't using as high a shutter speed as I am (1/800+), so maybe it would be a good tool.
