I think I should have held out for the 5DIII instead ok jumping the gun on the 7D!
At the time I chose the 7D because I couldn't justify a full fram camera for the shots I took and because it is extreamly weather resistant! But now in hind site I should have paid the extra and gone with the full frame 5D 
Luckily though I did think ahead a little and spent big on a good witch can be swapped over to the 5D if and when I decide to make the purchase!
I can't believe we have something in common, I'm excited 
Yep I nearly did the same, the wife just brought the 7D though and loves it, so good choice really. 7D is actually a great camera, so really you haven't missed out.
I also stick with the L series lenses, will be buying a few when I get the camera, already have the 100-400mm....great lens. I will be waiting on a few reviews of the 5D MK III, but I have been waitinig for this camera for a while now.....cant wait.
There you go eh....who would of believed it... 
, I will let you know when I start getting the reviews and send them to you!!
I was recommended the 17-55 EF-S and haven't been disappointed! It takes Very sharp images with little to no flaring on wide shots. I would love to see it how it went on the full frame camera?
Send us your reviews when you have them, wouldlove to hear what you think 
Great lens, the wife has the same..
.....it is apprently the best of made lens befiore going to the L series.
Now problem, the 17-55 EF-S or any EF-S lens will not fit a FF camera, reason being is that the focal length on the lens sits too close to the sensor on a FF. The EF-S is really specifically designed for crop cameras, which of course the 7D is.
This is the only lens we will own that I won't be able to put on my MKIII when I get it.
Will keep you up to date, let me know the next lens you are looking at when you go to get it.
