EOS CAMERAS
Meet the New Game-Changer
Changing forever the way you capture still images and video with a DSLR camera, Canon proudly
introduces the EOS 70D camera – a trailblazing powerhouse featuring a revolutionary
autofocus technology that unlocks the potential of Live View. The innovative Dual Pixel CMOS AF
allows the EOS 70D to shoot video like a camcorder; enables you to fully benefit from the freedom
of angle allowed by the camera’s Vari-angle Touch Screen 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor II;
and is compatible with 103
*
Canon EF lenses for expanded creative flexibility. Built-in wireless
technology further enhances shooting and sharing capabilities. Superb image quality is
provided by a newly designed 20.2 Megapixel CMOS (APS-C) sensor, which enables an ISO
range of 100–12800 (H: 25600), and the powerful
5+ Image Processor helps achieve
up to 7.0 fps continuous shooting. A 19-point all cross-type AF system with a high precision
dual cross f/2.8 center point and Intelligent Viewfinder with customizable display provide
advanced control during composition and capture, while imaging features like HDR, Multiple
Exposure and Creative Filters available in real time help create spectacular photos. Elevating
the possibilities of creative expression to extraordinary new heights, the EOS 70D with cutting-
edge Dual Pixel CMOS AF is nothing short of revolutionary.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF
A revolutionary autofocus
technology that unlocks the
potential of Live View, Dual Pixel CMOS AF on
the EOS 70D camera will change the way users
capture still images and video with a DSLR
camera. This amazing AF system allows the
EOS 70D to shoot video like a camcorder,
delivering smooth, consistent focus, even when
subjects are in motion. In addition, autofocus is
accurate and faster than ever during Live View
still image capture, enabling the photographer
to compose with the exceptional freedom of
angle provided by the camera’s Vari-angle LCD
monitor. Dual Pixel CMOS AF is also compatible
with 103
*
Canon EF lenses, further expanding
compositional and creative possibilities.
Dual Pixel CMOS AF is a cutting-edge Canon
technology, made possible by a sophisticated
redesigning of the camera’s CMOS sensor.
Where image sensors traditionally have one
photodiode per pixel, the CMOS sensor on the
EOS 70D has two photodiodes per pixel. This
enables each pixel on the sensor to perform
phase-difference detection AF and capture
light – a first for EOS cameras. With phase-
difference detection AF, autofocus is achieved
quickly and easily, with virtually no loss of
detail or sharpness. This unique AF system
enables autofocus on 80% of the image plane,
vertically and horizontally, and provides high
speed AF, accurate focus tracking and
incredibly smooth video focusing to make
the EOS 70D an imaging powerhouse.
Built-in Wireless
Technology
The EOS 70D camera features
wireless technology, conveniently built in.
Connecting easily to a network or directly to an
iOS
®
or Android™ smartphone** running the
Canon EOS Remote app***, a number of camera
functions can be controlled wirelessly, and
images can be reviewed, rated, deleted, filed
and transferred. The EOS 70D is also fully DLNA
(Digital Living Network Alliance) compatible for
easy sharing between the camera and other
DLNA products, like HDTVs, game consoles and
more. Images can be shared through CANON
iMAGE GATEWAY

, and photos can even be
printed directly and wirelessly to Wireless
PictBridge certified printers without the need
for a PC.

Live View autofocus powered by Dual Pixel CMOS AF
is phenomenally accurate and faster than ever.
With the freedom of angle inherent to the EOS 70D
camera’s Vari-angle LCD monitor, you can
comfortably and conveniently shoot more subjects,
from more angles and vantage points, as the
situation dictates – confident in the camera’s
ability to provide outstanding focus.
Shoot Video Like a Camcorder
Dual Pixel CMOS AF delivers autofocus performance for the EOS 70D that is
similar to that of a camcorder – but on a DSLR camera! Focus is precise,
transitions are smooth and natural, and subjects in motion are tracked
consistently over a large area of the frame. The EOS 70D locks in outstanding
focus quickly and doesn’t let go, helping you achieve pleasing, cinematic results.
