<p><strong>Canon EOS 70D

</strong>A few Korean based images have appeared showing off the Canon EOS 70D. If you can translate the language, please do so in the forum.</p>
<p>We’ll be up until midnight EST for the launch of what looks to be a very well specced APS-C camera from Canon.</p>
<p>We haven’t yet heard about the build quality of the camera. Here’s hoping it’s weather sealed to some degree.</p>

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

I guess this confirms 7D AF system

Also, layout is almost the exact same as 6D besides the Q button, might pick one up as a backup crop body

 

[Loswr]

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

19 AF points and a D-pad. To whomever said it would need a joystick, sorry...told ya!

 

[nolken]

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

but will it perform like the 7D autofocus system with a non-dedicated AF processor?

 

[farmdwg]

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

So the question is do I pick up a 7D or a 70D... I think I'm leaning still towards the 7D.

 

[nolken]

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

looks like a cross between a 60d and a 7d

I may be looking to sell my 7D that I picked up back in January depending on how this camera performs.

It'll probably have the 7D's AF processor. The Digic chip doesn't do the AF, it's a separate, dedicated chip.

Will be interesting to see what the AF of the 7D II will be like (I'm not up to date with the current rumors). Something between this and 5D3?

I think I've found my new camera, since Mayhem is the one feature I've been waiting for.

Joystick will be in 7D II with 1D X or 5D III 61points AF system - 10fps ;D

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

looks a bit plasticky for a 1600$ crop body.. also it costs the same as the 6D. now i officially have no idea about canon's policy anymore.

Where'd you see $1600? It was that with the 18-135 kit...

And, it makes sense that it would follow the form of the 60D body. Weather resistant without actually being as well built as the 7D and 5dIII line.

About we start at "high profit".

If you want good AF system, well build body and better frame rate and more...are you willing to pay $3000ish?

About we wait and see what 70D can do :

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

I believe it was leaked as $1,649 as a kit with the 18-135 IS STM lens. I'll bet the body-only price is more like $1,299 (US). Hoping for $1,199.

Can't wait to see some sample images, higher ISO tests and hands-on testing of the new Live View AF performance. I'm having trouble reconciling the "set a new benchmark for ISO" with the spec sheet showing a one-stop improvement in native ISO. One side of me worries that it's all about the DIG!C 5+ JPEG output, and the other side of me is hopeful that it'll be new sensor technology to boast about.

I guess we'll see. I'm actually much more excited than I thought I'd be. With the delay of the 7DII, I figured the 70D would get the sensor from the SL1/T5i. Now I'm hopeful that this will be a firm response from Canon to it's competitors.

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

I'm excited !

I've been waiting to purchase a new camera, I currently own and like my 40D, but sometimes miss not being to take video, also the ISO performance in some situation is an issue for me.

I like the crop body for the sport photography that I do, with my 70-200mm f/2.8 IS II lens and 1.4X III extender it is an excellent combination, so the FF are out of the question.

I've been tempted by the 7D in the past, but the 40D served me well, VERY well, I'll wait to see the first impressions from the reviews, but will not wait much before pushing the button I think, I think the 70D could very well be a very good camera for what I use, looking at the specs, for now of course

Cheers.

Re: Early EOS 70D Images Surface

Seems like the old 7D with a newer better sensor? And at the same price. a bit on the expensive side especially when the exchange rate already 20%. The pricing should reflect.

Canon is very expensive at Korea though
