So i took the plunge and got me a 7D today. waiting on it to ship here. can anyone suggest some good reading so i can learn it before i get it. Im upgrading from the Xti, seems like the same path a lot of people have taken. I know how to shoot manual and do so about 95% of the time. I know i need to figure out the focus adjust system but what other key points do i really need to pay attention to.

Congrats with your purchase! I had 7D for over a year, and it was awesome! Somehow i "downgraded" to 5D MK II

Congrats with your new camera. 7D is a great camera if you use it in a right way.
