A new video was released, detailing the Canon EOS 70D’s high performance capabilities.
Canon’s new autofocus system, dubbed the Dual Pixel CMOS AF (DPA) is an innovation in autofocus technology. According to CNET, a single photodiode, or the element on a sensor that collects light and converts it to an electrical signal, only passes on image data.

In the EOS 70D, the DPA splits each photodiode into two, comparing the signals from each half by using an algorithm for autofocus that phase-detects. The new feature makes the camera faster by driving the lens into autofocus.
The 70D also has manual-focus updates. Like the high-end 7D, the camera includes a touch-screen interface for Live View and video recording. It also gains Wi-Fi for wireless control and file transfer.
There are no radical changes to the outside design, but the camera’s operation is heightened due to these simple changes that Canon is implementing. Other updates include the Live View/Movie switch and record button, and a lock switch for the multi-controller.
The Canon EOS 60D remains the second best-selling dSLR on Amazon. The price also dropped form $1,099 to as low as $599, skyrocketing sales.
The 70D’s full specifications have not yet been released, but it will most likely range in the $1,200-price sector. The camera will be available in stores on September, 2013.
