The Canon EOS 70D is a digital single-lens reflex camera from Canon. The EOS 70D was announced on 2 July 2013, to replace the EOS 60D,[2] and was first available in late 2013.[3] The camera is available bundled with either the EF-S 18–55mm IS STM, EF-S 18–135mm IS STM, EF-S 18-200mm IS lens or as a body only.[1]

The Canon 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.[4] 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.[5]
