This is probably the last gadget review we do this year and what a rocking time we had with this camera. We got our hands on the Canon 70D to run it through our test bench. This is a no-nonsense DSLR from Canon, built to perform in almost any type of light setting.

Canon EOS 70D DSLR, First in Video Focus - Review
How do you guys think the video quality and capabilities of the Canon 70D compares to the Panasonic GH3? Thank you in advance for any information you can give! The GH3 shoots 1080 60fps. That's one significant advantage. In your Review Techs Specs you say "VideoOut: HDMI (monitor and recording)".

Pros:
- Relatively compact and easy to hold
- Full featured
- excellent image quality
- Highly responsive focusing system
Cons:
- Lack of full water sealing may deter prosumer users
- Not as ruggedised as the 7D

Pros:
- Innovative autofocus system
- Articulated touch-screen LCD
- Built-in Wi-Fi
Cons:
- Quite heavy

Pros:
- Menus system
- IQ
- Weight/balance
- Excellent size & feel - feels great in-hand
- Performance
Cons:
- Ensure no issues w/ the AF system (some models have problems getting exact focus

Canon 70D Review
Want one? BUY ONE ! See Compared above for all the plusses and minuses. The 70D is the least expensive full-performance Canon there is. Paying more for a camera isn't going to get you anything more, unless you really want a larger camera or auto LCD backlight control or all three "C" preset settings...
