Unless you're shooting photos or plan on using an external moniter, don't get the 7d. Save yourself some money and get the T2i/60d if you're looking to shoot video

but why do you need a 7d?


if you're looking to do video, you DO NOT need a 7d. there are much better options.

Buy Heaths 40d for photos $550 and then buy a t2i for video

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/675617-REG/Canon_4462B001_Canon_EOS_Rebel_T2i.html

Grand total: $1170

That will save you about $300 or so over just buying a 7d

I'd prefer to sell it with the kit lens/batteries/ viewfinder/ XLR input and CF cards if possible.
