canon 70d lcd screen not working price

Today after noon, I have worked for two hours and turned off the camera at location. On the way home i have turned on the Camera, but back LCD stopped working. Able to boot the camera and took couple of pictures without back LCD working.

1. Turned on the Camera, Took the battery and SD card out of the camera. After 5 min, I have kept the battery and SD card into the camera and turned on: LCD not working. Able to take pictures.

We specialize in Canon EOS DSLR camera repairs. If your Canon EOS DSLR 70D is not working properly, shows Errors (Err 99, Err 01, Err 02, Err CF) has broken LCD screen, broken card reader pins, broken shutter, flash problem, camera is not taking pictures or is taking bad quality pictures we can help you to resolve these problems quickly.

Our diagnostic software for Canon EOS 70D cameras shows us the internal codes of the problems with explanation what needs to be repaired and which parts we need to replace.

I cracked my top LCD display last year while traveling, and was wondering if anyone knew how much it might cost to replace. I called Canon and they told me I would have to send it in before they could assess the damage/cost. It"s not just the plastic, either, seeing as the display itself has broken, unable to give information. See below. Just looking for an approximate cost; not sure if it"s worth the replacement.

@aprice10 you did not tell us if it still shows everything appropriate just upside down. Let us know if the menus are also upside down. If it Looks right side up when the LCD is flipped out to the left side of the body but upside down when folded back  it is most commonly an issue with the orientation sensor. Make sure that you also go through your menu items to make sure that things are normally set.

If it is not in the menu anywhere etc you may need to check on something like this LCD Screen Flex Cable FPC Flip LCD Hinge Rotating Shaft Flex Cable for your model,

I always have my 70D with me on short photo excursions. Its dimensions are my 2nd favorite feature about this camera. It"s small. It"s light and it" easy to handle.

The grip is about 3/4 inch deep and about 1/2 inch wide in the middle of its U-shaped area. I am 5" 10"" with average sized hands and I have plenty of finger room to grip the 70D securely.

You can shoot at higher ISOs and still get pleasing results.   More natural light portraits without flash. Not as good as the full frame pro DSLRs, but plenty good enough to keep you happy with the quality you get.

Using a touch screen was something I avoided until I got my 70D.  Maybe it was my irrational fear of change. I always wanted to use the regular knobs and buttons.

Perhaps it was a false belief that amateurs use the screen and pros use the buttons.  i am over that finally. Once you get used to it, you;ll find i[out it"s really a quicker way to work with your 70D. The best feature that relates to the Canon EOS 70D dimensions is that it feels just right. It"s a perfect fit in your hands.  That makes the whole photography experience more enjoyable.

The EOS 70D is Canon"s latest entry in the HD-DSLR market, and the company is aiming to make a big splash with it, thanks to its brand new Dual Pixel CMOS AF focusing system. When Canon introduced the 5D Mark II, it stunned crowds with its video quality and price, but it lacked a big mass-market feature: autofocus during video recording. Several more recent Canon DSLRs such as the T4i, T5i and SL1 feature full-time continuous AF for video recording, but they still rely heavily on slower and sometimes-jerky contrast-detect autofocus to fine-tune focus. With the 70D, Canon has introduced its all-new Dual Pixel CMOS AF, replacing the Hybrid AF systems found in the aforementioned models with one that splits each individual pixel on the imager into its own phase-detect AF sensor, with no need to fine-tune via contrast detection. Phase-detect AF, the same AF technology DSLRs use for shooting with the optical viewfinder, provides much faster and smoother autofocus for DSLR video shooting.

Canon is putting interchangeable lens video/still cameras like the Panasonic GH3 squarely in its sights. The GH2 and GH3 made big leaps in the HD-DSLR/MILC video space with lots of video-centric features like higher bitrates, an articulated LCD screen, as well as full-time AF for video. With the 70D, Canon is blending features of their higher-end DSLRs, such as offering both ALL-I and IPB formats and time code (though not SMTPE) from the 6D and 5D Mark III, with the articulated LCD of the 60D (adding a capacitive touchscreen in the process), all at a very reasonable price point. And this whole package is built upon a game-changing AF system that will not only provide major competition to other MILCs and HD-DSLRs, but some segments of the camcorder market as well.

Other video specs of the 70D are fairly standard fare for Canon DSLRs. Like the 60D, there"s Full HD 1,920 x 1,080 resolution video at 30p and 24p (for NTSC, 25p in PAL mode), plus 720p HD video at 60p (50p PAL). There"s also a 3.5mm microphone jack for external mics, as well as manual audio level adjustments with a wind filter and attenuator.

Of course there are always trade-offs, and there are few small details that might deter some users from the 70D. For one, there"s no headphone jack for monitoring audio, which many professionals and video enthusiasts need. Also, video image quality appears more like the 5D Mark II and 6D in terms of moiré and aliasing. Canon users who demand the highest quality might opt for the 5D Mark III if this is a deal breaker for them, though they will have to forgo full-time autofocus.

All in all, though, the Canon 70D is a powerhouse for video recording, and not only will high-end users be attracted to the vastly improved autofocus, beginners and average consumers will as well. Here"s the full rundown of the 70D"s video capabilities, along with our usual selection of sample videos.

The clear stand-out feature of the 70D is the new Dual Pixel CMOS AF system. Canon"s previous full-time continuous video autofocus systems, called Hybrid CMOS AF (T5i, T4i, EOS-M) and Hybrid CMOS AF II (SL1), used both phase-detect and contrast-detect AF. The way this system worked was that phase-detect would get the ball rolling for focusing, then contrast-detect would take over for fine-tuning to achieve crisp focus. The downside is that this process is typically slower, plus the lens still has to hunt back and forth a bit to determine the point of best focus. This can have undesirable effects for video recording, as focus can jump back a forth if the subject moves at all in the frame during recording, and if the subject moves quickly, the camera may struggle to refocus.

With the new Dual Pixel system in the 70D, Canon has designed an autofocus system that uses phase-detect AF all the time, both before and during video recording. What this means is that there"s no more hunting when focusing, and AF is quite fast to acquire focus. Furthermore, Canon has designed the AF system for video to be very smooth and more "cinematic," shifting focus smoothly from one subject to the next. The autofocus on the 70D looks very much like a professional camcorder in terms of smoothness and performance.

As with the Canon SL1"s Hybrid CMOS AF II system, the new Dual Pixel CMOS AF in the 70D system utilizes an extremely large area of the sensor for autofocusing, as shown in the illustration below. In fact, 64% of the total area of the sensor (80% of the frame, vertically and horizontally) can be used for phase-detect AF.

In the example image above, the area inside the green line shows the area available for phase-detect autofocus during movie capture and Live View with the 70D.

Face+Subject Tracking: The camera will find and lock on to faces automatically within the 64% boundary. Users can also manually select the subject for tracking by using the touch screen to tap on the subject they wish to track or by using the Set button and the directional keys.

The Canon 70D features a large, 3-inch capacitive touch screen which, when coupled with the Dual Pixel CMOS AF, allows for very fast and easy control of autofocusing in video. When using Movie Servo AF and the touchscreen and focusing modes like Flexi-Zone Single, shooters can make easy and professional-looking focus changes simply by tapping on the screen to indicate the subject they want in focus. The Touch AF system makes it easy to rack focus from near and far subjects quickly, accurately and smoothly, without any hunting.

Of course, manual focusing is also available on the 70D, as is disabling the continuous Movie Servo AF feature and using a single-shot autofocus prior to recording video to set focus. The 70D does provide the option of magnifying the Live View display by factors of 5x or 10x to get a precise look at manual focusing prior to the start of recording. In common with all other HD-DSLRs we"ve seen to date, though, the magnified focus-assist view is only available when not actively recording.

Depending on the lens in use, on-camera audio will likely pick up significant autofocus drive noise. This can be minimized by using an external microphone, however. Canon"s new STM lenses are nearly silent, though, so an external mic would only be needed in very quiet surroundings with them.

AF point can be positioned with the multi-directional button, or the touchscreen before or during recording, but cannot be placed at the extreme edges of the frame.

We had a fair range of AF tracking examples from outdoor shooting, but wanted to try some more controlled indoor tests. We"d seen an example posted by someone on the Internet (sorry, can"t recall who, to give them fair attribution), of a little stuffed animal swinging as a pendulum, showing how well the Canon 70D did, particularly with an STM lens. We decided to repeat that test, and use it to compare between three different cameras.

The results were interesting. The 70D with the 18-135mm STM kit lens did indeed do pretty well, although we found that it tended to lag slightly, particularly as the subject changed directions. Importantly though, the operation of the focus-actuation motor was virtually inaudible. Trying the same test with a lens having a conventional focus motor (the Canon 24-105mm f/4L), we found that the AF didn"t track quite as closely, and the focus motor"s noise was very evident on the audio track.

In our outdoor AF tests with the Canon SL1 and its Hybrid-II AF system, the SL1 did quite well tracking larger moving objects, in many cases performing nearly as well as the 70D. It didn"t do nearly as well in this lab test, though, as it rarely seemed to adjust focus at all, in response to the varying distance of the subject. It performed by far the poorest of the three cameras in this little comparison test. We used the 18-135mm STM lens for this test.

The third camera we tested with this setup was the Panasonic GH3, and we were rather surprised by how well it did, using Panasonic"s 14-140mm f/3.5-5.6 lens. It didn"t track perfectly, but then none of the cameras did with this setup, and the GH3 seemed to perform at least as well, if not slightly better than, the 70D. We were surprised, as the GH3 uses strictly contrast-detect AF, so the camera has no absolute distance information to work with. Nonetheless, perhaps thanks to its very fast 240 Hz AF cycle and intelligent tracking algorithms, it managed to track the rapidly moving subject surprisingly well.

If an external flash unit has an LED light, the 70D can automatically enable it in low-light shooting. When shooting with external flash in modes other than M, the LED will turn on automatically under low-light conditions.

File size restricted to 4 GB maximum; new file is automatically created when the 4GB limit is reached and recording is not interrupted (but the resulting files won"t automatically play sequentially; you"ll need to manually play the second when the first is done)

Single-axis virtual horizon level is available in all exposure modes, but only before capture starts, and not if using face-detection autofocus or HDMI output

The Canon EOS 70D offers three different video resolutions and five frame rates, although only two or three rates are available at any given resolution.

The Canon 70D, like all of Canon"s video-capable DSLRs, only shoot in progressive scan formats. Although television broadcast video works well with interlaced formats, progressive video is more suited for computer playback and avoids deinterlacing issues.

Canon"s DIGIC 5+ image processor gives the 70D capability for both 1080p and 720p video recording. The 70D, along with all Canon video-capable DSLRs (with the exception of the $12,000 EOS 1D-C cinema DSLR and its siblings) still do not provide the option of full 1080p video at 60 frames per second, which could be a drawback for more professional shooters who need that combination.

The 70D limits the minimum shutter speed depending on the frame rate. For 30p/25p/24p, users are limited to 1/30th of a second. For 60p and 50p video, you are limited to 1/60th of a second.

The inclusion of 720p HD video at 50/60 frames per second is a great feature, as it allows users to more easily film fast action scenes. The faster frame rate also helps should you want to produce some slow-motion video in post-production. It might not be the best format to use in low-light scenarios, however, due to the slowest allowable shutter speed being 1/60th of a second at those frame rates.

The Canon 70D records all video using MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 encoding, at variable bit rates in the .MOV format. Like the 6D, the 70D gives features two compression schemes in the HD resolutions, ALL-I or IPB. The difference lies in how each frame of the video is compressed. Not surprisingly, there is no uncompressed "RAW" video capability in the 70D. ALL-I format, nevertheless, yields a higher image quality by compressing each frame individually, at the expense of file size, whereas IPB is an "interframe" scheme and compresses multiple frames at a time. This results in a slightly lower quality picture, but the files produced are roughly a third the size of those for ALL-I.

Most computers and editing programs made within the last few years should be able to play 70D files with little problem, but high-def files may strain older systems, especially during editing of IPB video. For users shooting video destined for video editing software, ALL-I format video is the format to pick if your memory card can handle the space and increased bit rate. File sizes for the 70D"s ALL-I clips can be massive, as you can see in the MB/minute rates listed in the table above. If you can handle the storage requirements and require higher image quality, choose ALL-I. Canon recommends using at least 20MB/second or faster Secure Digital memory cards for ALL-I, and 6MB/second or faster for IPB. Even faster cards will be needed if you plan on shooting stills during video capture, which will cause a brief interruption to the video feed. If your card is not fast enough, a five-step buffer fill warning will appear on the LCD screen.

The 70D produces very high image quality in video, with great, crisp detail and accurate color rendition. Scenes shot in bright daylight look a bit too contrasty to our eyes, though, with shadow areas being pretty dark with the Standard Picture Profile. Users looking to get the most dynamic range out of their clips should use a custom picture style with decreased contrast. In low-light scenes, the 70D did a great job, with nice detail overall and decent shadow detail. While there was visible high ISO noise in our nighttime test videos, it wasn"t severe enough to significantly degrade the image quality.

Although we saw much-improved handling of moiré and aliasing effects in the 5D Mark III compared to its predecessor, that doesn"t seem to be the case with the 70D. In our test videos, a fair number of moiré pattern artifacts could be seen in the standard problem areas like window screens, roof shingles, and fine patterned fabrics. Moiré and aliasing are even more pronounced in 720p video, which has been the case with other Canon DSLRs we"ve seen in the past. Overall, moiré artifacts look very similar to those seen on the 6D and 5D Mark II. This isn"t a deal breaker by any means, and while it could be a deciding factor for professionals or high-end video shooters, most users should just be careful where they shoot and be on the lookout for problems with the patterns in people"s clothing, etc.

Like most previous Canon DSLRs with video recording, the 70D allows for full manual exposure settings and adjustments including full control of shutter speed, aperture and ISO before and during recording. In all modes, except for M, the 70D switches to automatic exposure adjustments while in live view movie mode. As such, the 70D is very user friendly for both kinds of shooters: those that want a simpler video shooting experience and more advanced users who want more control over how their videos look. (It still would be nice, though, to have options like aperture priority available.)

Adjustments to all exposure variables can be made either before or during recording, but they are applied immediately, so the effect is not subtle. Aperture mechanism noise will vary depending on the attached lens.

Picture Style, white balance, exposure, auto lighting optimizer, peripheral illumination and chromatic aberration correction, and highlight tone priority effects are all previewed on LCD monitor

The Canon 70D has similar audio recording features to the 5D Mark III. Like many previous Canon video DSLRs, the 70D gives users the choice of recording audio with an internal stereo microphone or a third-party external stereo microphone via a 3.5mm mic jack. Audio levels are fully adjustable, with wind-cut filter and attenuator options.

The big downside to the 70D"s audio capabilities is that, unlike the 5D Mark III, the 70D does not feature a headphone jack for monitoring audio. This was a much-lauded feature when it was finally introduced into the Canon DSLR lineup with the 5D Mark III. Many advanced video shooters will surely be a little disappointed to find this feature missing.

Like all video-capable DSLRs and interchangeable lens cameras on the market today, the Canon 70D has to contend with rolling shutter artifacts. These image distortions are caused by the way the image is read from the camera"s sensor. Data is read line-by-line, rather than the entire frame at once, so the top of the image is recorded at a slightly different time than the bottom. Therefore, when panning or moving the camera side-to-side quickly, vertical lines in the image can appear to bend and slant back and forth in a "Jello-like" effect.

The 70D did pretty well controlling the amount of rolling shutter distortion. At the 1080p resolution, rolling shutter distortion was noticeable but minimal, and even less so at 720p. Overall, the 70D places well within the upper range of DSLRs when it comes to rolling shutter. As long as you are mindful of this effect, and avoid quick pans or back-and-forth motions, particularly around objects with vertical lines like trees and buildings, you probably won"t notice the rolling shutter distortion.

Canon 60D has a 18.0MP APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 4 processor. On the other hand, Canon 70D has a 20.0MP APS-C (22.5 x 15 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 5+ processor.

Canon 60D and Canon 70D have almost the same sensor size so none of them has any significant advantage over other in providing control over depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture.

DxOMark is a benchmark that scientifically assesses image quality of camera sensors. It scores camera sensors for color depth (DXO Portrait), dynamic range (DXO Landscape) and low-light sensitivity (DXO Sports), and also gives them an overall score. Canon 60D and Canon 70D sensors have been tested by DxO and the results show that 70D has a better overall score of 68, 2 points higher compared to 60D"s score of 66.

You may experience problems with your Canon camera from time to time that don"t result in any error messages or other easy-to-follow clues as to the problem. Troubleshooting such problems can be a little tricky. Use these tips to give yourself a better chance of success with your Canon camera troubleshooting techniques.

A few issues can cause this problem in a Canon camera. First, make sure you charge the battery and insert it properly. Even if the battery was inserted in a charger, it"s possible the battery wasn"t inserted properly. Or, possibly, the charger was not plugged into an outlet properly, meaning the battery did not charge.

Make sure the metal terminals on the battery are clean. Use a dry cloth to remove any grime from the contact points. Also, if the battery compartment door is not securely closed, the camera will not turn on.

Some Canon PowerShot cameras have a DISP button, which may turn the LCD on and off. Press the DISP button to turn on the LCD. This is common when the Canon PowerShot camera has an electronic viewfinder option for framing photos, along with the LCD screen for framing photos. The live screen may be active with the electronic viewfinder, so pressing the DISP button can switch the live screen back to the LCD screen.

If you hold the camera near a fluorescent light, the LCD screen image may flicker. Move the camera away from the fluorescent light. The LCD also may appear to flicker when viewing a scene while shooting in minimal light. But if the LCD screen seems to flicker in all types of shooting situations, you may need a repair.

Some Canon point and shoot cameras don"t exactly match the LCD image and the actual photo image. LCDs might only display 95 percent of the image shot, for example. This difference is exaggerated when the subject is close to the lens. Look through the specification list for your Canon PowerShot camera to see if they list a percentage of scene coverage.

Figuring out how to show photos on a TV screen can be tricky. Press the Menubutton on the camera, select the Settingstab, and match the video system settings in the camera with the video system the TV uses. Some PowerShot cameras cannot display photos on a TV screen because the camera doesn"t have an HDMI output capability or an HDMI output port.
