The editors didn't like
The kit lens
Good as it is
Does display marked distortion at both the wide and telephoto extremes. This is characteristic of inexpensive lenses with a long zoom range and we would opt for the 18–55mm lens in the kit
The image quality doesn't overly impress for this price class
And certain aspects of the design -- notably single card slot
Hard-to-control multicontroller and the Wi-Fi/movie mode conflict resolution -- are annoying
Innovative and effective Dual Pixel CMOS AF system, solid core feature set, useful WiFi options, responsive, fullyarticulated touchscreen
Lacks advanced finetuning features in areas such as incamera noise reduction, image quality is only slightly better than its predecessor (but still good for this price point), Price: $1,199 (body only), www.usa.canon.com, Read all of our handson camera re
The 70D is a solid, midrange camera with the core features one expects from—and needs in—a DSLR. But aside from its feature set, good performance and image quality, the 70D offers groundbreaking technology with its Dual Pixel CMOS AF system, which provide...
The Canon 70D is a fantastic prosumer camera. At present, the 70D is the overall class leader in APS-C cameras, especially when you consider your bang for buck value.The image quality has improved slightly over the last generation; however, the overall...

The EOS 70D marks a big achievement for Canon when it comes to live-view shooting and video capture. If you don't commonly engage in these, there's not much here that would make a 60D user want to upgrade, especially with image quality at essentially the ...
Abstract: The Pentax K-3 is the company's latest range-topping DSLR, which means another robustly constructed, well-proportioned camera built with photographers in mind. The 24MP K-3 does without an anti-aliasing filter, instead offering the unique option of shifti...
Abstract: The photography enthusiast has never had such a wide choice of great cameras to choose from - with the advent of mirrorless cameras swelling the ranks of highly capable cameras available for around $1,200. Although there's not always a difference in image...

Abstract: Once upon a time, DSLRs were primarily used just for taking photos. That's still the case, but increasingly, we're seeing a lot of amateur filmmakers use DSLRs to shoot incredible movies that — with good lenses, proper lighting and solid post-production —...
By Josh Fate Canon's introduction of the EOS 70D brings some new and exciting technology to the table. The revolutionary new Dual-Pixel CMOS AF gives the camera some abilities that are not possible on other dSLRs. As the replacement to the 60D, there h...
Good still image quality, Good ISO noise performance, Latest generation processing engine and technology, Touchscreen monitor offers quick control response, Exceptional DSLR video performance due to continuous AF
72 dpi still image output requires resizing for printing, Touchscreen monitor collects fingerprints and smudges, impairing legibility in bright conditions, Camera seems to lose highlights to a higher degree than the 60D at default settings
The introduction of the Canon 70D doesn't mark a dramatic upturn in still image capture performance over its predecessor, the 60D. Probably the most significant changes in this regard are the inclusion of a 7 fps continuous shooting rate and the touchscr...
Quality: I was quite blown away by the quality of this camera's images; not only were they super sharp but the coloration was dead accurate.The focus was super fast and super accurate. The stabiliser works well, esp in video shooting. Note: three handheld...
