Broke the 70D's cherry this afternoon with a nice 90 minute set by Rebirth Brass Band for Earth Day at Centennial Park in Nashville. It was outside on the band shell, perfect day for it. FOH sound was a bit loud and abrasive for the size of the crowd, but I was really happy with the way the recording turned out.
I didn't run a stand, just pulled the CCM5's out of the bag and put on top, using the ORTF bar at the right angle for the low stacks.
Hard to say, but I feel it most definitely pulled a better recording than I would have expected and likely better than my R-44 would do under same circumstances. I did notice a small issue when I was running on internal batteries and powered on, I plugged in the USB battery and it froze the 70D cold.
Had to do a hard restart by removing the internal battery connection for a second and powering back up, which erased all of the recording settings I had just set. But, it worked perfectly after that and it was long before music started. Ran on low mic setting since it was easily 105 db from my location.
It was fun and I love the size. I'm going to run some tests later this week, I'll post them here.
