Would a Over $1200-1500 Body only 7D MKII make sense.....

Considering the 70D is basically a 7D already, if the 7D2 has 5D3 AF and 10fps, I could see it coming in at $1800 or so.

The diagram of the 7D here:

Clearly shows each ADC feeds into two DIGICs just as does the 1Dx. The 70D has only one DIGIC and is not similar at all.
And on the 7DII, each ADC may feed into two DIGICs just as does the 1Dx, but there is another processor between them, so not clear about path. It may be for sorting the dual pixel AF data.
The 7D Mk II noise is so fine, that they may be reading the 40 million photosite off the sensor individually and then combining them after the ADC, instead of combining them on the sensor and then reading them.
That is what I originally thought and was excited that if they dropped the DPAF, they could produce 28Mp at 10 fps. However, Bob pointed out in another thread that would double the read noise.
