Exactly the same with my C70. So I think its normal. The rear wheel is a mess as also the joystick. Can't understand the decision to make it this loose. HDMI port placement is also terrible. 

But in overall its a great camera and I enjoy it more and more with every job. The last time I worked with an another camera operator with an a7sIII and saw how he was suffering with his rig, nd filters, batteries, cables and so on. with this camera it is so much more comfortable to work.

Thanks for the response. Canon definitely know how and can do better with the ergonomics . But totally agree the C70 makes for a lower stress shoot!

I've had mine for a couple of weeks. My number 10 clicks but there is not much travel, my rear dial above the 'func' button is very loose. It is set to iso by default and I found myself changing values accidentally. I think I will disable it completely. 

I have used it on one shoot so far and I enjoyed using it. 

Thanks for the reply. I don't know what Canon were thinking with that rear dial. You said your 10 clicks but do you find you have to press harder than other buttons to get it to respond? 

Overall the camera is great. Straight forward to use and the form factor works for me and adds versatility. Just wish it had raw.

Hi. Just got my C70 and have a couple of what feel like silly questions on whether my unit is assembled correctly. 

All the buttons with numbers have a nice positive click except number 10, the one shot AF button. It's stiffer and not much in the way of a click at all. Is this normal?

The top wheel that adjusts the iris has a very positive action. But the small rear wheel near the top right is much looser and although it clicks,  it's very subtle. Is that normal?
