    Add me to the list of people who have pre-ordered the 7DII w/ 18-135 STM and 24-70f/4L. The 18-135 is for video use, so the fact that it's not perfectly sharp, or super fast, is acceptable. The 24-70 f/4L because it's $920 off when purchased with the 7DII. Why Canon is pushing the 24-70 with a crop body I don't understand, but my 1Ds2 will enjoy it's new toy, replacing the used, discontinued, 28-70 f/3.5-4.5.

    You can blame Stuart's 70D high-ISO example shots for my order. I know I plan to. (Sorry Stuart )

    This must be a Canadian thing, at least I didn't see that combo at B&H or Adorama.

    Yup, it's a Canadian thing, plus I can register my pre-order and get some gift pack with a 7DII jacket, and a mini replica of Canon's first camera and some other things... but I give up my option to return the camera. I think I'm going to skip that part of the pre-order bonuses.
