The Canon EOS 70D is a digital SLR camera from the Japanese manufacturer Canon , which was launched on the market at the end of August 2013. When it was launched, the list price in German-speaking countries was around € 1100.

technical features

The camera has a 20,2- megapixels - CMOS - image sensor in APS-C format and has the following in more technical features:

  • Dual Pixel CMOS AF (fast focusing while filming via split CMOS pixels)
  • Integrated WLAN enables wireless control using mobile devices or a PC.
  • Recording of videos with up to 30 frames per second in full HD resolution or up to 60 frames / second in 720p resolution
  • 19 autofocus cross-type sensors
  • Continuous shooting at 7 frames per second
  • Light sensitivity ISO 100 to 12,800, expandable to 25,600
  • HDR program
  • Multiple exposure program
  • 7.62 cm LCD touch screen
  • DIGIC -5+ processor

The camera is available as a single housing and in two packages ( kits ) with the lenses EF-S 18-55mm f / 3.5-5.6 IS STM or EF-S 18-135 mm f / 3.5-5.6 IS STM, which are optimized for focusing during video recordings available.

Autofocus control

A special autofocus control is intended to prevent a "pumping effect" possible in LiveView during a video recording . For this purpose, each individual CMOS pixel in the central image area is divided into two sub-units that are jointly responsible for recording the image, but are read out separately for the autofocus. Since the left “pixel half” only registers the light that falls through the left half of the lens , and the right half of the pixel is equivalent to the light from the right half of the lens, the camera can use a sensor-based phase autofocus by reading out the individual photodiodes separately . This method, together with the STM lenses equipped with a stepper motor , is intended to enable automatic, soft focus tracking.
