Overview

The Canon EOS 70D is a mid-range digital SLR camera equipped with a 20.2-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor paired with the DIGIC 5+ image processor, delivering high-quality images and videos with low noise performance.

It features Dual Pixel CMOS autofocus technology, which significantly improves autofocus speed and accuracy during live view and video shooting by allowing phase-detection autofocus on the sensor itself.

The camera supports full HD 1080p video recording at multiple frame rates, including 30fps, 25fps, and 24fps, making it versatile for videography.

It has a 19-point all cross-type AF system for fast and precise focusing through the optical viewfinder and an ISO sensitivity range from 100 to 12800, expandable up to 25600, suitable for various lighting conditions.

The EOS 70D includes a vari-angle 3.0-inch Clear View II touchscreen LCD, enabling easy shooting from multiple angles and intuitive menu navigation.

Connectivity options comprise built-in Wi-Fi for image transfer, remote control, and sharing, enhancing workflow efficiency.
