Well you have to consider that with the 7D you aren’t getting the all powerful FF sensor. FF demands a huge premium and since they are supposed to be jacking the price up quite a bit I expect they will be offering substantial improvements. Where do you have to go from 8fps? The Exec from Canon did say they would be taking the 7D into a whole new territory.

It is the 70D that I don’t think has much future since I think most of the buyers for that type of camera would probably be better off with something like a 6D or its successor.

What I meant is I do not see both 61+ AF and 10 fps together. I can see some thing less than what is on 5DMKIII AF but at 10 fps or higher fps.

For the FF sensors, if 7D sensor is better than what is on the 5DMKIII/1D-X (perhaps as part of "whole new territory") then would that narrows the gaps of the powerful FF  closer by some notches?

Don't get me wrong I do like the spec. but I do not think this aspect is likely.  It is just my speculation and could be wrong.
