Coming round the mountain when she comes!

So some updated information has come up regarding the Canon 7D and it looks to have answered all my prayers. Canon Rumors has all the information you want, including a bunch of pictures of some possible posters and whole bunch of lens diagrams and stuff.

But what’s got me excited is the spec list below. I’ll be getting my filthy little mits on one of these as soon as I can, surely a fantastic upgrade to my interim solution 500D.

EOS 7D Specs

-18mp
- dual digic 4
- 8 fps
- 19 af points
- ISO 100-6400 (L & H1 & H2)
- 63 metering zones
- 100% viewfinder
- Horizon Help Viewfinder
- 3″ VGA LCD
- FullHD Video

No word yet as to whether it is going to have manual controls for the video, but you would imagine that it being such a serious stills machine aimed at the pro/semi-professional photographer that it would have them included.

The official announcement is scheduled for tomorrow! Happy days!
