Are you sure he's not mad Lestat? His veins on his forehead are popping out.....so cute!

Anyway as for the 7D, I only defected from Sony because I wanted HD video with AF and Sony wasn't committing to bringing anything out with video anytime soon.

Here's what I dislike about the Canon 7D:
  1. The Quick Control Dial (ferris wheel looking thing at the back) - wish Canon implemented a dual dial like Sony and Nikon so if you are in Manual mode, you can use the front dial for Shutter and rear for Aperture.
  2. The lack of AF assist LED - seriously.....it's a bit archaic to use the pop up flash to strobe pulses of flash to help with acquiring AF not to mention it messes up using manual flashes via optical slave mode.
  3. No hotshoe cover/cap - any camera over 1k for body alone should have this. In fact every DSLR should have one considering it probably only costs 5 cents. Considering the 7D has weather sealing around the hotshoe but no cap to protect it.
  4. No AF/MF switch on the body - kind of bizzare actually. I haven't read the manual yet but looks like the only way to disengage the AF motor is to turn it off on the lens only for now.
  5. Not all Canon lenses come with hoods - I know that most digital lenses are less prone to flare and so on because of their digital coating, but a lens with no hood looks silly!
  6. Non USM lenses should be avoided if you want audio and to AF in video mode as the AF sounds are picked up.
  7. Menus are not as intuitive as Sony but that is just what you are used to. Definitely not as cryptic as Nikon.
