Pros: + well designed (very similar to my main body EOS 6D) + GREAT high ISO performance (among other crop cameras I've used so far) + touchscreen (I am very surprised how useful it is) + great upgrade of AF system (19 cross type points) + horizon icon right in viewfinder (great tool I have always enabled) + wi-fi (I have several plans to use it during my next trips) + overall image quality

Cons: - smaller backside "wheel" (finger encounter the display when rotated all around) - one-touch zoom button missing (I love this button on my EOS 6D, I would be happy if the same would be there, but touchscreen works pefectly in this case) - AF-system only close to 7D (I miss my prefered setting - 1main AF point and 4supporting around) - silent mode (not as silent as my EOS 6D but still works well)

Opinion: I have very good first impressions after first few days with this camera. Great output, ISO well controled. It would be great addition to my main body EOS 6D. Feel free to browse my full resolution sample gallery where ISO 320 - 2500 was used together with EF 300mm/2.8 IS (w/o TC 2x II) and EF 100mm/2.8 IS. I can highly recommend everybody who is looking for upgrade of all older cameras EOS xxD. http://gallery.sulasula.com/Equipment/CANON-EOS-70D-FULL

Pros:

Cons: A few more points of maf would have been welcome (but already inherited the maf system of the 7D and already was not little), as well as the scope however expanded but not 100%, the second slot could be comfortable but with the reliability and quality of the sandisk memory cards c I used, I have never lost (absolutely) a frame nor with this or with any other reflex, certainly one more for backup, makes you feel more 'quiet but you get along with even one, alternating maybe the cards every now and then.

Opinion: I came from 60D and the jump was a "double jump forward, on everything". First Canon photocamenra with dual pixels and live view management with reaction times and touch screen that were worth the upgrade on their own, then the exceptional versatility of the shot where, although with a not very high number of points (19 but more than double compared to the previous model and with many other compositional possibilities), points well arranged even if a little spaced apart but this was certainly not a problem knowing and being able to have some small groups of maf selectable to the necessary besides the single point and the grid of points that in live view almost doubled in number allowing you to focus on touch or with displacement of the dial, the maf almost on the periphery of the reflex, for those who preferred macros and pushed close-ups like me, this possibility to compose in live view with that quick response, already in the first version where the dual pixel was really a remarkable technological impkement and really very effective and quick to touch or intermediate press of the click button, also allowed me to assessments of focus stackng with reflex on a stable or static basis with a simplicity and expansion of composition and pesniero previously unknown, the versalitity of use expanded enormously, the improved sensor made well at low iso with excellent detail tying in spontaneous symbiosis with the 100 macro L Canon, exceptional lens that with this reflex, gave me great satisfaction and populates in combination with this trusty and stainless travel companion and with other lenses, many of the photos that I have in the gallery, but it was made appreciate great for an aps-c, even medium iso high, as much as they matched bright lenses or quality coming to make shots with good yield and noise management, after a balanced post, even at 12800 iso with poor light omin dimly lit interior, burst for me exuberant (I do not make birdy except sporadic photos in that area) but excellent resource anyway in case you wanted to take advantage in some other circumstances, fantastic grip for me and excellent ratio Canon detail and colors. I replaced it after almost 4 years and I'm a bunch with an 80D but low iso, I think this made him a beard even if the other raised the bar, being more recent and advanced, on other aspects, some of which, however, the subscriber car car cared little, great machine for me the 70D, of an absolute reliability, never a problem encountered, except a few infiltrations of dust when the change of lens was more frequent (the machine was only partially waterproofed). It will always stay in my heart and I thought of her when I got to try for a couple of months a new Canon 6D Mark II, just exit, feeling from first FF for me but from burning disappointment (I immediately regret the 70D that was also a lower category as product band and reflex, exit pelal other several years before and as sensor (aps-c vs new sensor FF...) but the ratio of quality and usableness between the two for my needs left no doubt, the cons for me were clearly superior to the pros and I was clearly freed I think a 5D Mark III that, although just released, was in my opinion at least two spans on the 6DIIperi in most of the basic functions for photography, robustness, tropicalization, ergonomics, weight, balancing, grip, sensor quality, autofocus system..., double CF and SD slots, joystick customization of menus and buttons/commands, immediate feeling, management and low iso rendering as I liked with the 70D, but this is another story... . Going back to the topic on the 70D I conclude, the ideal rating for me, even affective, is "11", but you can't assign, but a nice 9 full "true", sincere, does not take away from him anyone, always earned with honor on the field

Pros: Swivel and touch screen, Wi-Fi, general file quality, battery life, buttons customization, fine AF adjustment

Cons: Few points of MAF

Opinion: The 70d was my third SLR and the first serious camera. Very great satisfactions with this machine. When I took it I began to support only optical L series and was immediately love. I kept it several years and was a loyal companion even in adverse weather conditions. Infinite Battery, the tilt and touch screen beautiful, clear and very useful. Equipped with Wi-Fi. I highly recommend as a handyman machine coupled with quality optics that can be calibrated through the fine adjustment of the AF directly in the camera since the 70d has this fundamental function. To have a higher number of AF points and a more powerful module, maybe in the same band, you can steer on the 80d, but if you do not have excessive claims then, even today, is an excellent machine "generic" on which you can rely fully in every Condition.

Pros: Shooting quality, possibility of practicing any type of photography, tropicalization, burst of shots, autofocus, Wi-Fi, level

Cons: Noise at higher ISO of 1600, hot pixels

Opinion: Great body that I use for the past 2 and a half years, allows to explore practically all kinds of photography and gives unique emotions. At higher ISO of 1600 begins to get noticed a little ' noise, but nothing that can not be solved with a minimal post-production (at ISO 3200 you still make wonderful shots to the Milky Way without the noise annoys). Shooting for a long time and continuous (startrails), after a few shots begin to be noticed the fastidiosissimi hot pixels. Wonderful The fact that it is tropicalised, very useful when the humidity is high.

Pros: Rugged but lightweight body even though tropicalized, full-frame photo quality comparable

Cons: High perceptible noise (from 1600 upwards)

Opinion: I've been using this camera for more than two years, I'm very pleased with its quality. I got it bundled with lens 18-135 STM, with which you really do it all, and it's also quite light. Exposure meter is very reliable, it is difficult to mistake exposure if you have a minimum of practice cone the most common exposure techniques. Very easy to use in manual thanks to the double ring (exposure times and diaphragm). I would try to change the model, who goes for the new road knows what he leaves but not what he finds ...
