Canon EOS 80D

The EOS 80D camera features a powerful mechanical shutter system with electronically controlled speeds from 1/8000 to 30 sec. at up to 7 fps. An improved mirror drive enables high-speed, low-vibration performance, and even has a silent mode for up to 3 fps, continuous and quiet use.

Canon EOS 80D Review

Canon has created an excellent camera that makes a worthwhile upgrade from the 70D. It's well-built with sensibly arranged controls, has good ergonomics and an extensive feature set, and can be set up to suit your shooting style. Most importantly, the image quality is superb with lots of detail.

Canon EOS 80D review: A solid upgrade but not much more

Update: You might have expected the price of a camera launched in 2016 to have fallen by now, but the Canon 80D is about the same as it was when it first appeared. You can get hold of one, body only for just shy of a grand and in kit form from around £1,300 with an 18-135mm zoom lens.

At a glance: Comparing Canon's current DSLR line-up with what it was three or four years ago highlights how, today, the manufacturer offers a wider range of models catering for all types of photographer and sizes of budget.

Canon EOS 80D review

The EOS 80D makes a number of key improvements over its predecessor, but its core appeal remains unchanged: the speed and confidence of a traditional mid-range DSLR coupled with one of the best movie and live view autofocus systems on the market.

Canon EOS 80D

Canon's midrange SLR family, including cameras like the previous-generation 70D and the current 80D ($1,199, body only), has long been a solid choice for photographers who feel that the consumer-friendly Rebel line is lacking, but don't need to move up to the pro-grade 7D Mark II or any of the...

Canon EOS 80D Review

The Canon EOS 80D offers some significant upgrades over its predecessor, and is a strong performer in the midrange SLR space. Canon's midrange SLR family, including cameras like the previous-generation 70D and the current 80D ($1,199, body only), has long been a solid choice for photographers who feel that the consumer-friendly Rebel line is lacking, but don't need to move up to the pro-grade 7D Mark II or any of the company's full-frame models. The 80D offers full compatibility with EF and EF-S lenses and Speedlite flashes, 7fps continuous shooting, and a 45-point autofocus system that's a big improvement over the 70D. It's a strong performer, but not quite an Editors' Choice pick. Our favorite enthusiast APS-C SLR is the Nikon D500, which shoots a bit faster, has a more advanced focus system, and captures video at 4K resolution. The Nikon's asking price is notably higher, however, and has less appeal to photographers already invested in a Canon system. Design The 80D is about average in size. It measures 4.1 by 5.5 by 3.1 inches (HWD) and weighs 1.6 pounds without a lens, which is heavier than the top...

Unbeatable autofocus puts Canon's EOS 80D at the top of its class for video.

Canon EOS 80D Review: Great DSLR for Video

The Canon EOS 80D is great for photographers who want to step up from Canon's Rebel line, as well as 70D owners who want to upgrade to a much better AF system. But there are other cameras in this APS-C class that are worth considering, such as the Nikon D7200 ($1,200).
