Here is a little about the video autofocus on the 70d as well...
I was weary about pulling the trigger on the 70d because I have always shot full frame cameras. I rented one for a wedding I had in Denver to try out the live view auto focus on my glidecam and it was very impressive, the face tracking worked flawlessly in good light situations. In low light it was slow but was still very useful. The touch screen was very nice and useful when trying to focus on something other than a face, a quick tap to the area you want in focus and it locked in quickly. I have yet to use it in a hunting situation but I feel if you had a 2.8 or lower lens it would be sufficent even in some low light hunting situation. Here is a link to some of the video I shot with it.
