Mine is working as expected as well
Right, Martin and Bob, I have also traced this to "Lens aberration correction>Distortion on/off" setting....if it's set to "Off" all is well, however if it is set to "On"and the magnification point chosen when that is set to "actual size", the point changes to only displaying the centre point no matter what focus point is chosen by you.
Will let Canon know, sounds like a software problem.
Still to resolve the review time failure, however.
George.
ps, Martin, thanks for the iso info.
Interesting.... I am assuming the distortion correction is only for JPEG anyway and won't affect the RAW ?
Apple OS X update released today for 7D2 for Aperture 3 and iPhoto compatibility.

I have no idea, Martin, all my shooting is in RAW and I assumed it would apply to that as well?..
So are we saying that lens correction data is a waste of time if you aren't processing in Canon DPP?....and if you are shooting in RAW?...and that if we are shooting with HTP enabled, the raw rata is being altered?
NopeThanks Bob. Yeh understand processing software updates need to catch up - is LR5 supporting the camera yet?
What do you not like about your 7D Mark II?
....I do not like:
(-) The position of the Erase button - If I am reviewing shots in very low light or darkness, it's too easy to action it rather than the Playback button. Having said that, I don't know where else it could be positioned and I am getting better at avoiding it when not wanted.
(-) In playback/reviewing images, I find the stubby 'joystick' tricky to control when navigating around an enlarged image.
(-) That the Rate and Creative Photo buttons aren't customisable to other actions - Or are they customisable?
What I do like about the 7D Mark II is a very long list! The only EOS camera I have any experience to compare it with is the 70D and some occasional use of my daughter's 100D.
I am even happier now that Apple have updated RAW compatibility for the 7D2 in Aperture 3.6 - The next few days are going to be busy!

Exactly my opinion Bob, in fact I think I said that earlier in the thread, and although the noise performance is better than the mk1, it still leaves a lot of room for improvement.I personally think that 14-15 Mp would have been adequate given the ability of today's mainstream lenses to put detail on the sensor. This could have moved the noise signature upwards 1-2 stops (based on Canon's ability with similar pixel density) and it's unlikely that "cropability" would have suffered noticeably. 20Mp on an APS-C equates to 50+Mp on a full frame sensor....more than twice what they're currently producing.
Different people look for different spec's and 15Mp would undoubtedly have attracted criticism but I'd have been happy with it.
