Canon EOS 800D
At 6 frames per second, the Canon EOS 800D is one of the nicest cameras to own. You’ll find that this small little camera packs a lot of great features behind its lens. So, let’s see what some of them are and how you can leverage the most out of yours.
Your photos will look magnificent thanks to the Canon EOS 800D’s 24.2MP sensor. The great aspect about this is that even photographs taken at moderately high speed, will still be captured as if they were professionally taken. We’re talking about a 0.03 second focus speed when utilising the very-angle screen (the fastest in the world). Imagine the quality of your shots!
The very-angle screen also has other functions that allow you to take shots from various angles & perspectives. The camera comes with all the lenses you would need as fundamental tools of your trade. So, if you’re the kind of photographer who wants a camera that reacts as quickly as you do, then this is definitely a camera you’ll love.
There’s also a movie making feature on the Canon EOS 800D. Record high quality videos and share them via your camera’s Bluetooth or WiFi functions. You won’t find much to criticise on this camera. It’s easy to use, has loads of great features, and keep your photography career or hobby up to date for years to come.
A newer model Canon EOS 850D was released in May 2020.

Canon EOS 800D review
For the most part the Canon EOS 800D is a very good camera which does pretty much everything it's supposed to do, and does it well. It's not a massive upgrade on the 750D, but the tweaks that have been made add up to enough of a difference to make it worth thinking about splashing out on it. The biggest improvement is to the AF system - a 45 point all cross-type design is pretty impressive for an entry-level model, and it compares well to plenty of other cameras in this regard. Budding videographers will be disappointed that it's lacking in 4K video capability - but perhaps adding it would have upped the price just out of reach of the average beginner. And that's where our main problem with this camera lies - its price. The 750D was launched with an RRP of £600 body-only - but the equivalent 800D costs £780. That's a pretty hefty price hike, Brexit or not. Add a lens and you're looking at £870, and by that time you're firmly out of entry-level territory. OK, so the 800D isn't Canon's absolute bottom-of-the-range model, but nor is it packing enough features that it'll satisfy really advanced shooters. What you're left with is a very good camera for beginners, which may well be priced out of their range. Wait for it to drop by a few hundred quid, though, and it'll be a great option for those looking to take their first step into the world of DSLR photography.

Canon EOS 800D
The Canon EOS 800D (also known as the Rebel T7i) sits in the entry-level line-up of Canon's DSLR cameras. It's the successor to last year's 750D, and sits just below the 77D, which is a replacement for the 760D.
Canon EOS 800D: An all-rounder for a beginner's upgrade
The Canon EOS 800D is the latest from Canon's stable towards making the Digital Single Lens Reflection - great again! Canon has come a long way from their initial model, the EOS 300D, which was launched earlier in 2003.
Canon EOS Rebel T7i
For a step up in photo quality or performance from a phone or compact, the Canon EOS Rebel T7i/800D remains a fan favorite.- The Canon EOS Rebel T7i/800D delivers reasonable photo and video quality and respectable performance in a time-tested body
- Relatively large compared to other cameras in its class and its photos aren't as sharp as competitors'
Canon EOS Rebel T7i / EOS 800D review
Canon is hardly rocking the DSLR boat with the new EOS Rebel T7i / 800D – although with the T6i / 750D proving such as success it would have been daft to start from scratch. That said, there have been a number of welcome improvements.- User-friendly interface
- Excellent touchscreen control
- Live View AF performance
- Impressive overall image quality
- No 4K video
- Plastic finish
- Dynamic range could be better
- Only 95% viewfinder coverage
