| Chronology | |
| Predecessor | Canon EOS 60D |
| Successor | Canon EOS 80D |
TheCanon EOS 70D is adigital single-lens reflex camera byCanon publicly announced on July 2, 2013, with asuggested retail price of $1,199.[2] As a part of theCanon EOS two-digit line, it is the successor to theEOS 60D and is the predecessor of theEOS 80D.[1][3][4]
The EOS 70D is the launch platform for Canon's Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus, which provides great improvement in focusing speed while in Live View, both for stills and video.[5] At large apertures such as f/1.8, the 70D's Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus provides a significant improvement in focus accuracy and consistency over conventional autofocus.[6]
The 70D can be purchased as a body alone, or in a package with anEF-S 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6 IS STM lens,EF-S 18–135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens, and/orEF-S 18–200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens.
The most recent available firmware is version 1.1.3.[7]
Compared to theEOS 60D, the following changes have been made, including:[8][9]
The Canon EOS 70D with certain serial numbers (within the range "00" to "22") produced the error codes 70 and 80 due to circuit board issues associated with high internal temperatures during prolonged use, notably when filming video for long periods of time.[12] Continued use with error codes would often result in a completely dead camera due to heat-related circuit board component failure. Canon had recalled the product. Customers who experienced this phenomenon could contact Canon by registering their serial number and requesting free service/replacement, which included replacing the circuit board if needed.[13][14]
This recall program was discontinued at the end of 2022.[15]
We've also found that it offers clearly greater accuracy and consistency than the conventional AF system
