Wow. I almost wanted to buy it right then and there even though there are nice slickdeals.
Fry's has a pretty nice selection out there. They had the T1i, T2i, 50D, 7D, 5D2 and of course competing models too, but they had a very complete Canon lineup (save for the 1D).
I played with the T1i which I have and the T2i. Decent. Same stuff obviously. Then I picked up the 7D. The first thing I did was fire it off at 8fps. Wow. I honestly like shuddered in awe. It was like a joygasm or something because I totally felt it through my body. Then I looked through the viewfinder. Wow. What the hell was I looking through before? And how come I was never this amazed when using a 40D? Large and 100%. Then you have the AF system... Amazing stuff.
Then I went to play with the 5D2. That thing is a beast too. The 24-105L really suits it well. The fact that I can get less DOF than my Canon 17-55mm on a crop is pretty interesting. I like.
Too bad I don't have money for this. Well I do, but I should really be saving it for more important things like grad school
