The editors didn't like
The downside to an advanced autofocus system is that it's complex and getting the best from it takes some input from the photographer. In more advanced cameras like the 7D Mark II
5D Mark III and 1DX Mark II
Canon has tried to help with the Case Studies
Sometimes overexposes high-contrast scenes in JPEG mode
No 4K video capture
Still image autofocus not the most reliable
The automatic white balance isn't very good
And it doesn't have a terribly broad set of features
No increase in maximum frame rate (but it is 7fps)
24Mp Dual Pixel CMOS AF sensor, 110 JPEGs or 25 raw file bursts, New AF systems
No increase in maximum frame rate (but it is 7fps)
On paper this looks like a healthy upgrade from the 70D and a great choice for enthusiast photographers. It's going to be an interesting one to test when we get a full production sample...

Superb focusing in all modes, Excellent image quality, Wi-Fi and app features actually work, Swivelling touchscreen and plenty of controls
Bigger than a non-DSLR (obviously), Pricey, No 4K video
