Two years on, and the camera rolls on, doing what it does very well, occasionally punching above it's weight, occasionally punching below it's weight.
Re-reading my original review, I see no reason to change any of my thoughts I had then, some of the good points have been reinforced over and over again.
Particularly, in good light the autofocus tracking is superb, battery life is impressive, I bought a cheapo third part battery as a back up, but have never needed to use it. If using a reasonably fast card, the buffer clears remarkably quickly.
One 'fault' that has come to light over the last year, infrequently (perhaps 1 shot in a 100), the exposure brain of the camera scrambles, and the image is severely under or over exposed, regardless of the setting (auto/manual-average/spot etc), luckily it's never occurred on a vital shot, and it's something I can generally live with.
As newer models come on stream, some of the better functions of the 7D have been taken up with the newer models (notably 5D MKIII), but even though two years can be considered a relatively long time in DSLR evolution, the camera in no way feels dated.
So as long as you can live within it's limitations, particularly avoiding very low light for autofocus tracking, and not shoot in the ridiculously high ISO's more recent cameras are capable of, the 7D is a solid performer rather than spectacular but it's a camera that brings home the bacon time & time again.
Here's a shot from this morning, nothing spectacular, but reflects it's capabilities.
With 200mm F2.8L + 1.4TC. 1/1600 sec @ f4, ISO 250
