The Canon EOS 70D is a digital single-lens reflex camera by Canon publicly announced on July 2, 2013 with a suggested retail price of $1,199. As a part of the Canon EOS two-digit line, it is the successor to the EOS 60D and is the predecessor of the EOS 80D.
The 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. 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.
The 70D can be purchased as a body alone, or in a package with an EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens, EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens, and/or EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens.
The current firmware is Ver. : 1.1.2
