Everything looks good and I have it in the basket to buy at B&H, at $1799 its not to bad.

Here is what bothers me, I see where it says you have an expanded ISO.
But no mention of improved noise reduction. Normally Canon throws hints out but I do not see anything that tells me I will now be able to shoot at a higher ISO than the old 7D. Did the 70D have improvement in that area?
