Hi everyone

Does anyone know if canon will be replacing the 5d mark II soon? What about the 7D? Thanks for the input and help! Hope everyone is doing great.
 
The 7D is less than a year old....that will be around for another 18 months I expect.

If the 5Dii has the same life span as Mk1 then it has another year yet.
 
5DmkII, I'd expect to see something next year.

As for the 7D, it's not a year old yet, that wont be replaced for at least a year, probably two, I'd say.
 
If the 5D MKii has even half the life span as the MKi I wouldn't suggest holding your breath, I also wouldn't expect anything on the 7D for a while as any serious upgrade would push it too close to the 1D.
 
Although it doesn't mention it in the title, the thread just below yours goes into pros/cons of 7D vs 5Dm2. See: http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=256863

As to whether there's a mk3 on the horizon - no one really knows. Supposedly on a 3 year cycle which would make it's introduction around a year from now, but then Canon may surprise us and release one in a few weeks, or maybe in 2 years...

Whatever you buy, it will be out of date at some point....
