7d ii

The important comparison for me would be with the 1D MkIV. I've toyed with the idea of grabbing a MkIV for BIF shots with its crop factor and AF/high ISO capabilities. The 7D MkII appears to be able to hold its own against the 1D MkIV at 6400ISO. The MkIV has a slight edge in contrast, maybe. But the price difference between a new 7D MkII and a used 1D MkIV really is making it a no-brainer.

In November you will hear about my 1D IV vs the 7D II

i can tell you the micro contrast of the 1D IV is a noticeable difference could be the deal breaker.

If those high ISO images are how it's going to be, then I can already see the difference. And that's looking at a small area at 100%. I bet it's really noticeable when viewing the whole image.

The lens plays a huge factor in micro contrast, too. Couple the 1.6 FOVC factor, and the new processors, sensor, price, I'd say that the 7DII will hold its own.
