In general, the camera was a success. For a novice photographer, you should pay attention to this model, because. Now the crop from Canon is no worse than the crop from Nikon. Of course, those who are burdened with optics and accessories will not be able to choose much, but for a beginner, the Canon 70D is definitely. Although I myself am a "Nikonist" and I own a Nikon D7100, I emphasize once again that the difference in the picture is not so significant, while additional functions make working with the camera very pleasant. The device can be safely taken for macro and reporting by professionals. Do not try to take cheaper previous models, including 7D. The picture there is different, no better than the 550D, released 3 years ago. The difference is only in functionality. Here, I repeat, the picture "grew" to the level of older brothers. So I can state for the gentlemen from Nikon - you are losing your piece of the pie in the crop segment, where Canon could not reach you before, at least in terms of image quality. Good luck to all!
