EOS 70D (EF-S18-55 IS STM) New!
The 70D is a cutting edge DSLR that lets users easily turn everyday scenes into expressive photos. Equipped with Dual Pixel CMOS AF with sensor phase detection AF technology enables impressively fast focusing speeds during Live View still and movie shooting.
- Dual Pixel CMOS AF
- DIGIC 5+ image processor & 20.2M APS-C CMOS sensor
- 19-point cross type AF & 7.0 fps Continuous Burst Shooting
3 ways of capturing still images and videos
With new features and technologies in the EOS 70D, it offers 3 ways of capturing still images and videos through the Intelligent Viewfinder, Vari-angle Touch Panel Clear View LCD II screen and wireless remote shooting using smart devices via the EOS 70D's built in Wifi capabilities.
Dual Pixel CMOS AF
The EOS 70D features the new Dual Pixel CMOS AF, a phase-difference AF technology on the image sensor plane, which employs a CMOS sensor on which all of the effective pixels are able to perform both imaging and phase-difference AF to achieve dramatically improved AF performance during Live View shooting and when shooting movies.
19-point all cross-type AF & Central point f/2.8 dual cross-type AF
The new EOS 70D has 19 AF points that are all cross type which enables accurate focusing even when the subject is moving unpredictably. For even greater precise and rapid autofocus, the EOS 70D has a f/2.8 dual cross-type central AF point that harness the advantages that f/2.8 lens is able to provide .
