Canon EOS 7D Mark II Shipping with a Cable Protector

Buried in the press material for the EOS 7D Mark II announcement was an image showing a unique accessory that is being bundled with the camera – a cable protector.

Canon says in the EOS 7D Mark II User's Manual:

"When connecting the interface cable, also use the provided cable protector. Using the cable protector prevents the cable from accidental disconnection and the terminal from getting damaged."
You can see the cable protector socket in the following diagram:

And here's how you install and use the cable protector:

The included cable protector means that I won't have to purchase a 3rd party accessory (like the Tether Tools JerkStopper) to protect my 7D II's camera's ports from excess strain when using the interface/HDMI cables. Nice! [Sean]

B&H has the Canon EOS 7D Mark II available for preorder.
