Canon EOS 70D Dual Pixel AF is is Terrific and Unrivaled (Gizmodo)

Gizmodo reviewed Canon’s latest foray in the APS-C market segment, the [shoplink 14246]Canon EOS 70D[/shoplink]. The EOS 70D has many of the best features of other Canon DSLRs,  WiFi from the EOS 6D [shoplink 7139](price & specs)[/shoplink], AF from the 7D[shoplink 337](price & specs)[/shoplink], the superb touchscreen of the Rebel T5i/700D [shoplink 11242](price & specs)[/shoplink] and EOS M[shoplink 6091](price & specs)[/shoplink], and others. This is a common practice of Canon: a new model resembles all the best features of other Canon DSLRs, and adds one innovative or at least new feature to the set. The EOS 70D’s absolutely innovative feature is the Dual Pixel AF, described by the reviewer as “terrific and unrivaled”.
