Canon loaned me a 1D X and it's really special at high ISO and manhandling a 2.0x TC-III; otherwise, the 5D MkIII matches it and may be superior at low ISO scenic shots.

I'm hoping that the 7D MkII will match it with a 1.4x TC. The AF system is improved with way more X type AF points (all 65) and the crop--sensor gives you more reach with less powerful TCs.

Hopefully, and the jury is out, the 7D MkII will match the 5D MkIII and 1D X at ISO 800 and be very close at ISO 1600.
