Canon just announced the 70D a replacement to their 60D which is poised to be a game changer for a few reasons. The specs are pretty nice leading off with a 20.2 megapixel dual Pixel CMOS AF sensor which is said to allow you to record video with really good autofocus. There is more information about this technology below.

The ISO range is 100-12,800 expanded to 25,600.
7 FPS for up to 16 frames
1080p 30 FPS with stereo audio recording and audio input.
19 Point AF with with all points being cross type.
98% Viewfinder Coverage
3 Inch articulating touch screen (I like this touch screen)
Only 1 SD card slot
Built in WIFI and Flash
Price $1,199 Body Only

Based on the specs and quality of cameras Canon has been releasing I think this is a fantastic camera. I am looking forward to getting my hands on it and doing a sniff test at Allens.

I think a lot of people are going to want to see how it compares to the Nikon D7100 and I will do my best to compare them both in the future. I will say that I think the Canon is more designed for the Videographer where the Nikon is designed for a still shooter who may like to do video.

I honestly don't think one camera has an advantage over the other. If you were to pick up either of them I think you would be very happy with the results.
