[@maxxandlouie]

This man makes the most valid, truthful and comprehensive camera reviews on KZbin! He really does use the equipment thoroughly and is a true expert. It also helps that he speaks eloquently. Thanks for the reviews!

[@rs5419]

Tony, I've watched over 15 or so of your videos and this was by far the most resonating for me. Thank you so much for simplifying the process. I continue to be a fan.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Ron Svetgoff Thanks, Ron!

[@avarmadillo]

Tony, your camera reviews are consistently the best. Thank you so much.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Yeah, I agree with all of those... the loss of the white balance button is really frustrating for me, since I shoot video with it (I shoot raw stills, so it doesn't much matter there)

[@TonyAndChelsea]

...you just have to register your purchase (instructions in the introduction). Besides PDF, we also include all common ebook formats (.epub, .mobi, and .ibooks).

[@TonyAndChelsea]

What about it makes it better for weddings?

[@vishalk470]

Tony. You are in Loveeee with Canon 5D Mark 2 :) Btw... Best Review not only for Canon 70D but it also covers almost every camera in the Canons line up. Brilliant!!!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

You clearly know a great deal about camera gear already, but many people viewing this video won't understand how sensor size impacts image quality and ISO performance. The differences become especially relevant when comparing crop cameras such as the 70D to full-frame bodies at similar price points, such as the 5D Mark II. I've talked with hundreds of buyers after they bought a crop camera and were disappointed with the low-light images, so I hope the comparison saves some people the pain.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Thanks! The links are buried in the description.

[@juhanyman1802]

There was a sale on 70d at our local camera store and they were selling new 70d for 599 euros. I already have 6d so I "had" to buy it just to have more reach while birding as even 600mm on full frame sometimes feel not enough. Thanks for the review Tony - made me more happy with the purchase. Also the video capabilities on 70d seem great. So now I can use 6d for portraits and low light and 70d for birding and sports.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Hi, Paul. This is the type of topic that I cover in my Photography Buying Guide (available using the third link in the description). There's no one right answer, but the 18-135 is more versatile.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Congrats, Paul! I'm not sure about the lens hood... but you're right, it's odd that it doesn't include one!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

They are the same camera in many ways, you're right. However, the 7D is far cheaper used, which is why I recommend a used 7D over a 70D in many scenarios. Getting the best photos means spending your budget on the equipment that'll make a difference in your photos. If you don't have a need for the 70Ds improvements, you can get the same pictures for much less with a used 7D, and save your money for lenses, lights, software, etc.

[@princelb81591]

Excellent review! I bought a 6d used like new on amazon for 1,549 with no tax and free two day shipping! It was a steal ha! Your right about the full frame sensor its A HUGE DIFFERENCE AND IS A WHOLE NEW EXPERIENCE!

[@puddytat62]

I did watch part of the review video and as an editor I can say your on camera personas are quite compelling. Not sure where you reside but the feeling from the review is ultra laid back like west coast ..Washington or California .. It exudes light and airiness... pleasant for a review video where someone usually is screaming or will be abrasive. So you two really seem to have it together. It is almost like a jazz appreciation radio show but with cameras. It is great if you ask me... nice too that you include the guy in the "control room" very nice touch .

[@TonyAndChelsea]

In theory, if you had proper focus pulling equipment and enough practice, you could do it manually (and it would be even more accurate). The focus pulling gear would probably be as expensive as the upgrade to a 70D, however.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

That's very personal to you, your needs, and your budget, so I'd watch this video closely, and my other two 70D reviews. Also read my Photography Buying Guide (links in the description). If you have specific questions about the capabilities, feel free to ask.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

I guess I don't know exactly, but yeah, the 6D does fine using the center AF point. However, the 70D's crop sensor will still win for BiF.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

The Fuji X-Pro1 has an APS-C sized sensor, and thus it will have the same low-light limitations as every APS-C camera, whether mirrorless or DSLR. If it's good enough for your needs, that's perfect, but it won't be as good as a full-frame 35mm camera.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

I totally agree! I wish camera manufacturers would include articulating displays on their higher-end cameras.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

MicroWare mentioned this, but the T4i is very similar to the T3i and T5i, especially as far as image quality is concerned.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

I understand you'd prefer I use the term "crop" instead of "compact". I apologize for any inconvenience. I'll consider changing my terminology, however, I do need to use a term that people who don't have your background in camera technology can understand. After all, you knew what I meant, but someone who didn't already understand the differences might find "compact" to be clearer.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Yes, the 5D Mark II's AF system is fine for those situations. The 16-35 is a great lens for full-frame cameras, but honestly, it's pretty rare that I use that super-wide-angle range. It's just not all that useful. For most travel and landscape work, I'd rather shoot a panorama (as described in Chapter 2 of Stunning Digital Photography, links in the description).

[@JPMitchell31721]

I agree about starting with the T3. That's what I did, and I just upgraded to the 70D after spending almost 3.5 years with the T3.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Me personally, I wouldn't worry about the actuations. I've never had a shutter fail, and I shot constantly... but your mileage may vary! I don't know what the going rate for 5D2's is in euros, so I can't comment on the price.

[@TofuProductionCinema]

Hi Tony, I just wanted to thank you for such an informative video. I rarely am able to sit through longer clips on youtube when I'm searching for information, but your video kept me well educated and was fun to watch. I a few years ago had a Canon XTi, the first DLSR I ever owned, after a couple of years I went to a T3 and just yesterday decided to move to the 70D, it's expected to arrive tomorrow. I have a wide array of lenses such as the 50mm 1.4 prime, 18-55 kit, 50-250IS, 18-135, and a 18-200. all with various filters. I do a little of video work and upon watching your review I was very pleased to see that this 70D offers that 'tracking system' not to mention it focuses decently well for a subject in motion. I'm very glad my extensive search landed me on your page, I've subscribed for future videos, and look forward to viewing them in the future. Keep up the fantastic work. - Jeff

[@TonyAndChelsea]

They'll both get the shot. The 70D can also be your camcorder, if you care about video. The 6D will give you much better image quality. The 70D will definitely be better for wildlife. Check my Photography Buying Guide (links in the description) for detailed information about the differences between camera bodies and how to choose lenses--it'll save you a ton of money.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

I had an easier time getting my Eye-Fi configured than the 70D WiFi, but the Eye-Fi is only good for transferring pictures (though I like the Eye-Fi mobile app better). It doesn't allow remote triggering or live viewing through the camera.

[@E3Zombie]

I have to say Tony, even though you disagree I find it very impressive you find time to reply to so many of your subscribers, lots of respect for that, also your book has helped me heaps.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Hi, Jennifer. I cover this in more detail in my Photography Buying Guide (at Amazon, or using the 'Worldwide' link in the description)... but you won't see a big improvement in image quality until you make the jump to full-frame.

[@nn082007]

Good review Tony. I have seen several of your reviews. Your coverage of the subject is so much useful. I am seriously considering purchasing the 70d, as against the 7dM2. The point where I am unable to make up my mind is the Kit Lens: (1) 18:135 and (2) 18:55 are available. In addition, I am a bundle of (3) 18:135 and 55:250 is also available. I am finding it difficult to choose among these three options. Also, I am considering Tamron 90 f2.8 for the long range zoom. Please help me choose. Thanks.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Hi, Larry. The biggest differences between the two are going to be the mirrorless vs. SLR architectures. For detailed information, read my Photography Buying Guide (links in the description).

[@PhotoshopMeNow]

Yes, I always use back button AF when photographing birds, especially.

[@OscaR1GSX]

AMAZING REVIEW!!!! Very nice the why you break up the pros and cons of each camera. Pointing what is the best use for each camera also rocks.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

If you're doing stars, then yeah, full frame is the way to go. You definitely want a 6D for stars... the live view is really helpful compared to a 5D Mark II, and the image quality at your required higher ISOs is much better than the crop cameras. Check my 6D video review and my Photography Buying Guide for more info.

[@paulmoss4199]

Great video Tony, you covered everything that I wanted to know. I have now decided to buy a 70D as a result, my interest is general purpose photography, nothing specific so I think that the 70D will be just perfect. Thanks again for all your hard work!

[@28adap]

Have you ever reviewed the Canon t3i? If not I sure would like to see one cause your reviews are so thorough and easy to understand. Good job man!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Well, the answer is different for everyone. I'd watch this video and make your own judgements about your priorities, and read my Photography Buying Guide (available at the third link in the description).

[@JeffAlaniStanfill]

Great review Tony! I have been extremely happy with my Canon 70D! I have been filming my voice student's lessons and recording sessions with great results. The image quality far surpasses my previous camera which was a Canon Vixia HF G1O camcorder. Thank you for all of your insightful reviews and expertise!!!

[@TonyAndChelsea]

The biggest differences will be image quality and depth-of-field. It's too much to cover in a KZbin comment, but my Photography Buying Guide (link in the description) will help you understand the differences between crop and full-frame camera... and it will tell you what gear you really should be using for portraits :).

[@michaeldidomenico7]

This review has sold me on my next Canon. The 70D will become my go to camera and my 60D will stay for backup.

[@uezljeys]

Your review is the most detailed i've seen so far...kudos!

[@nathalycalle1653]

loved this review....and you also have a very good prescence and tone of voice to make this kind of videos - KEEP IT UP! and thanks

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Nathaly Calle Thanks!

[@aimangual]

Sorry DigitalRevTV, love your work, but this is THE best 70D review out there for most people.

[@SuzanneElizabeth89]

Canon should watch your review and use your very adequate criticism and suggestions to better their products! Great review...the best one, and I saw several. Thank you.

[@angelamok-pinter1701]

Thanks for such a detailed review. I took a lot of photos and videos for my kids soccer and hockey game. I have a starter point & shoot right now Canon SX50 HS and is looking to upgrade. So the Canon 70D would be a good choice for these kind of shooting?

That's really up to your budget. Don't forget to save some money for lenses, lights, etc. Check my Photography Buying Guide (using the 'worldwide' link in the description) for detailed recommendations for wedding photographers.

[@Ateyaaa]

amazing...I have this camera and enjoying it but need a mentor...

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Well, if I were stuck with one camera, it would be the most expensive camera I own, the 5D Mark III. But every camera has its strengths and weaknesses.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Thanks, Carlos. Please read my Photography Buying Guide (link in the description) for detailed information about mirrorless cameras like the GH3 vs. DSLRs like the 70D. If you still have a question after reading that, just let me know.

[@PewLaserBeams]

best review out there, for those like me undecided between several cameras.

[@ddfann]

Really useful video. It's so rare to find a genuine review with so many worthwhile recommendations with sensible justifications. Typically you find someone pushing one device over another no matter what the job need.

[@EasyRider485]

Tony, you and Chelsy are the best! I love you guys! Thanks for all these great videos you put out.

[@SamLyn]

Very thorough!! I really appreciate your reviews. You're almost single-handedly helping me make a difficult purchase decision.

[@sophierj5601]

Hi! Right now I have the Canon EOS 1100D and I want to upgrade to something much better. The 1100D is my first camera, but from the start to now I've improved a lot when taking pictures. For me right now I am thinking about either the 70D og the 60D. I love taking nature and landscape pictuers (such as of mountains, the northern light, animals etc.), but also portraits and general/random pictures. So I wondered. would you recommend the 70D or the 60D? Or would you recommend something else?

[@Indianadirtpirate]

Thanks for the wonderful videos - One question I have a SL1 as a new step up for portrait, outdoors, and events I have 3 options. 1.7D 2.5D MK2 3.70D Of course all are used but looking at these options unless you have another option. I appreciate all your work and any help you can give me. Thank you for your time!

[@Ashutosh22733]

Hey Tony, Thanks for posting the review. I got mine on 28th Sep and loving it. I also have ordered your book from Amazon and going through it now. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge.

[@mariegra1]

Just bought the 70D--so far, I love it. Upgraded from my T5i.

[@IDIturboDiesel]

Marie Graichen I upgraded from T5i to 70D as well.

[@smiff4748]

Fantastic review Tony. It has helped me to finally decide to purchase the 70D.

[@CoachDebCole]

i seem to keep stumbling upon your reviews as I hunt for "the perfect camera" this month. Thank you for putting SO much time and analysis into these. this video might be the best "overall review" as it COMPARES all the different versions I was looking for. I've got to get your book as well - since you're such a fantastic teacher! Deb Cole

[@TonyAndChelsea]

[@oscarjara5852]

I was feeling a little bummed out after buying this camera and looking up some good and bad reviews. After watching this full review though I don't regret it one bit! Thank you for sharing and posting this!

[@fiveanddimer]

Fantastic review, Tony. I'm amazed at how superficial many of the other reviews are. I'm really tired of seeing people take their new camera or lens out of the packing box. I'm interested in bird photography and based on your analysis will be buying a used 7d.

[@enriquemyrddin8970]

Good Evening, a very technical question. At time 11:17, Tony shows two pics shooted from Full-Frame (6D, crop factor 1.0) and APS-C (T3i, crop 1.6). Looking at previous videos from Tony, I learned to multiply not only the focal length but also the aperture (and Iso!). So 6D / 190mm / 2.8 / Iso 800 = roughly T3i / 304mm / 4.5 / Iso 2050 BUT the field of view would be completely different, roughly 11° for the 6D and 4° for the T3i. So to get the same kind of result (field of view) with the T3i, I would have to set it at 119mm / 1.8 / Iso 310. I hope so far that someone will tell me that I am right and I understood the concepts. My questions goes to the DOF. Doing additionnal calculations and using some online DOF calculator (to check), I could find out that a Full-Frame 190mm / 2.8 with a subject at 5 meters would give me a DOF of roughly 11 cm. For an APS-C 200mm / 2.8 still the subject at 5 meters I would have a DOF or roughly 7cm. How can Tony shows both pictures above (at 11:17) where it seems that the person has the same "size" and why can he say that the DOF is smaller for the Full-Frame... I know he is right but I would like to have a kind of mathematical example to just grab it... Thanks to the community for explaining or sharing a good link.

[@phantomzero2413]

Something some people might see if they’re doing research into this old camera that isn’t mentioned in the video is that may change your mind on the 70D over the 7D for sports/moving photography is that the 70D has phase detection over contrast autofocus which is a little less accurate but better for moving subjects.

[@LubaLuba1]

very helpful I am deciding to buy 60d for my kids sports would manual focusing over auto continues better ?

[@RichardAltenburg]

Your great quality video and explanation make it much better to decide whether to buy a 70D as a backup for my 6D, thanks for putting the time into this.

[@PatriciaCarrizalez]

Do you recomend this camera for food blogging or is the 5D mark ii better for that? Thank you.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

I sure do.

[@SaiLuminos]

Great video Tony, thanks. Could you please mention which lens you were using in that video to get the shallow depth of field from a crop sensor when switching focus from camera to face etc.? Keep up the great work!

[@samantha-7005]

I know this video is six years old, but I’m seriously learning exactly what I want to know right now. Thank you!! Eventually I’ll need to get caught up with you in real-time tech, but for now I just purchased the T3i yesterday, found this today and I now already want to get a used 70d as well. Hahah

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Over the 550D, yes, it would be a bit better.

[@johndatsko]

Thank you Tony. Perhaps you can help me. I need to purchase a Canon camera to use with my Questar Field Telescope (1300mm) to shoot wildlife. What camera would you recommend?

[@lasoob]

This is the ideal video I was looking for! I was considering buying this camera but wanted one suitable for a bunch of uses and your review has covered all bases and I know it's suitable for my means. Thank you 👍

Super awesome, objective review. You really took a lot of time to make this video and I appreciate it. I am doing the same thing as you...selling the 7D and buying the 70D for all the same reasons. Subscribed!

[@davedirocco1172]

Hi Tony, Great work. I'm new to this. Received a 70D as an award from work so I didn't have the luxury of selecting a camera. 1st dslr. I have been relying on your videos for introductions and training. Plan on purchasing a kindle an subsequently your books

[@johnnolewajka1639]

Hey Tony. What do you think about the STM lenses for the 70D? Are they good or cheap? Should I get a more expensive canon/sigma lens?

[@beckybell2146]

I have an EOS XTI with the 18-55 and the 75-300 lens. Probably will buy the 70D to do video as well as photos. I am a total amateur - that's why I just bought your book :) My question is: how well will these lenses work with the 70D or should I get the 18-135 they sell with it? Thank you.

[@mantferv]

Thanks very much Toni! Just another question to out reply, where i live and where i use to buy my lens happen to not have or sometimes none kind of Sigma lens, and buying that online somewhere else can sometimes cost too much blecause shiping and customers taxes... Is any of the Canon series that you would suggest me?

[@briangeoghegan9172]

[@TonyAndChelsea]

PIXYBASHER Thanks!!

[@PIXYBASHER]

Hi Tony, I have a question for you and hope you can advise, I've just read that on the 70d all the cross point focus points only work with lenses of f5.6 or faster. I use the sigma 50-500 which is 4.5-6.3 and was thinking about getting the 70d primarily for flying birds because the cross type focus points would greatly improve my hit rate from the 60d. So the question is would all the cross point focus points work with the sigma lens..? Hope that makes sense. Many many thanks..Nigel-uk

[@playerwii64]

Is it worth paying that much money for the 70d or maybe buy the 60d? The 60d is $600 and the 70d is $1200 is it worth paying that for 19 focus points, new processor, faster shutter speed, wifi and touch screen? With that money i can buy a 60d with good glass or maybe buy the 7d mark ii when its announced? What is better?

[@TheSazandora]

Hi Tony I was wondering if I should buy the canon 70d or a different camera for stills and wildlife.

[@Rocorama1]

Well presented and informative review. I appreciate how well the pros and cons were explained. I know it's and older video, but I had my heart set on Nikon, and after watching several of your videos I think Canon will be the better choice. Thank you for never sounding like a salesperson, or pitching a specific product. You clearly allow for the viewer to decide.

[@kaimelis]

doesnt the crop factor partially cancel out larger sensor dof effects? More milimeters is shallower dof, and crop factor gives more milimeters, or it is not how it works?

[@theoschela]

Thanks so much Tony! Would be so grateful if you shared some of your Menu C.Fn II Autofocus settings for shooting Osprey (for example). Thanks again! Will

[@Erko91x9]

Do you have an extra Mark II for sale Tony???? Great tutorial by the way.....I'm buying your guide this week....and you seriously made me think about whether I should get a 70D or Mark II.....Mark II should be the winner for me

[@lucianoag999]

Hello Tony. I am a new sub going throw your videos. They are great. I am still trying to get my head around the crop sensor equivalence. In min 26:05 you show the comparison of the blur in the background. I would like to clarify. It is not the sensor giving the blur or the shallower depth of field, but the distance to the object and the background. On the left you are standing further away from Chelsea what makes the relative distance between her and the background smaller. Basically you have the effect of a higher depth of field due to the higher distance. I have a 60D and a 500D that I “found on the attic “ and am trying to give them a second life. Not upgrading to the 70D yet ;) Thank you for your videos.

[@ketilhyumiversen6699]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the variation of cameras "out there"... I come from a "Canon family", so because of the lenses i can use, it was naturally a Canon i would buy. And after watching your videos, and others, i have decided for buying a 70D. For me it`s for shooting pictures, and videos of my daughter when she is doing sports, school stuff. I would also take some nature pictures when we go for walks with our dog, and for the family holidays in Italy (we drive through Europe from Norway, so alot to capture along the way). My brother has the 7D, and we also have an 5D Mk2 in our circle of friends, so always possible to borrow camera for specific photo-shooting, but as you said, for the "allround capabillity" of the 70D, thats the one for me..... So again, thanks for great insight into this camera.....

[@mikemeisterfeld3835]

Hi Tony, did you use the 70D the whole time to film this Review? And which lens did you use? Thx Mike

[@kipmillwee6936]

I inherited several EF-S Canon Lenses, Have been looking at the Canon 77D, seem to be some at good prices. What is your opinion? I use Nikon gear, but with this gift, I would like to use them. Thank in advance.

[@RogerZoul]

Tony: Concerning AF on the 70D & the 6D...we know the 6D's weakness is the only cross-type focus point is in the center...but, if one is only using the center-point for AF on the 70D, is the 70D still faster than the 6D at tracking BIF and other moving things in AI Servo? I find myself just using the center point on my 70D 'cause when I use either of the other two modes, the focus squares appear over blank spots in the sky where no bird is, though they sometimes hit where a bird was.

[@jvidia]

Hi Tony! What do you say about the focus problem on the 70D that everyone is speaking, when shooting with the viewfinder using the central focus point + F2.0 or larger aperture at mid range distances??!? In live view this issues does not happen! The images are in focus all most of the time. I'love to see a video from you talking and testing this issue ! I was into a 70D but after this I'm thinking on going to the 700D. Not doing video, do you think the 70D is worth the cost over the 700D? Thanks and keep those videos coming ;) Jorge

[@dreamkiss4u]

Hi Tony thanks for the great work you put out in all your reviews, my question is about the Book...if i buy the paperback from amazon do we get a link to the pdf version with it or the pdf version is separate from the paper back if we want that also?

[@sypherx420]

Great Video! I am torn between the Video features and Focus of the 70D and the Picture quality FULL Frame and price of the 6D. I have been using a T1i for years now and its time to take the step up. I have in my arsenal the Canon EF-L 24-105 , The Canon FishEye 15mm, a 580exii flash and a 270exii flash (for slave or travel). I Jumped to soon for the video on the t1i from my xSi. I take mostly portrait ATM of my family do you recommend the Full Frame 6D or the all around 70D +Video for me

[@robertbascelli6433]

Great review Tony. Thanks for the time you put into these. They are extremely helpful.

[@KocaMetallec]

Outstanding and detailed (as need) review as always! So good that I'll probably pick 70D But Tony just one BIG question: i.e when 70D and 6D set to ISO 100 and achieving correct exposure, does the 6D has better image quality.. I dont mean on amount of background blur, or so.. I mean on sharpness, contrast, color reproduction.. I know that 6D has better image quality on ISO 6400 than 70D on 3200.. But I'm asking about ISO 100 :) PLEASE I cant good answer on the web, and I don't have chance to test it out buy myself. Tnx in advance Tony (or Chelsea) and keep up the great work.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

Yes, the 6D has noticeably less noise at ISO 100 than any of the crop bodies. Sharpness and contrast depend more on the lens. I haven't noticed any difference in color reproduction.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

I don't understand the question.
