I have to say I am really enjoying shooting with this thing! Through all the frustration and disappointment I almost forgot what it's like to shoot with a camera that does what you want it to.

I can finally get sharp images of my daughter playing. My dogs running around. Normal stuff we like to take pictures of.

After playing with this 7riii and seeing what it can do (with the EXACT same setup as both my 7iii's) I can unequivocally say that there was something seriously wrong with both of those bodies I got. I don't know how a MILC can front focus, but they were.

I've probably taken at least 20 of the shots of the cow to check focus. In not a single one of them has the focus been forward/behind where I told it to be. It's like I've rediscovered the fun of taking pictures all over again.
