The editors didn't like
Slightly soft initial video footage
No Movie Servo AF shooting 60p
Nonarticulating/Nontouch LCD screen
Priced as high as some full-frame cameras. Video capability doesn't match that of lower-priced rivals. More noise in high-ISO/low-light conditions than from Canon's own
Cheaper 70D
Fixed rear screen
1080p video only
Only 20.2MP resolution
No tilting or articulated display makes shooting video without a rig annoying
And it lacks built-in Wi-Fi
Costs $100 more than the original 7D
Zoom button moved to a less convenient location
60fps for video lacks 'AllI' compression and continuous autofocus
Still suffers from noticeable noise in high ISOs (though improved)
Has none of competing videospecif
No WiFi
Nothing done from Canon to be the disruptive camera company that they were many years ago
Pricey. Lacks built-in Wi-Fi. Fixed rear LCD. Servo AF unavailable when shooting at 1080p60
Operation of the AF system has a steep learning curve
Weatherproof construction, 65 cross-type AF points, 10fps continuous shooting, GPS built in
