Canon EOS 80D is well-suited for serious photographers looking for a feature-rich yet affordable camera priced below the top-of-the-line EOS 1DX Mark II


It sports a 24 MP CMOS sensor that produces detailed photos. Fast moving objects are captured through the speedy autofocusing, which uses a 45-point cross-type viewfinder and Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus technology. Video is recorded in full-HD at a rate of 60 fps. The 3-inch touchscreen is helpful in terms of zooming. Wifi connectivity makes photo and video sharing straightforward.


The new EF-S 18-135 mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM lens can be purchased separately or as a bundle. 


A newer model Canon EOS 90D was released in August 2019.

Canon EOS 80D review: The Canon 80D delivers on faster focus

With better performance and photo quality than the 70D, the Canon EOS 80D is worth the upgrade, but it's got a lot of competition for the money. Canon delivers a decent update to its popular prosumer action-capable camera, the EOS 70D. The 80D gets a new version of the company's Dual Pixel CMOS sensor with a faster on-sensor autofocus system, plus some minor additions. It has some notable improvements over the 70D, including much better Live View performance; it's not as fast as a mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera, but it's finally usable for subjects in motion. And the generally improved performance will resonate with the typical action-shooting enthusiast who buys this class of dSLR. But if you're persnickety about color, you'll have to do some tweaking.
Pros:
  • The Canon EOS 80D is fast
  • and if you play with the settings can produce excellent photo and video quality.
Cons:
  • The automatic white balance isn't very good
  • and it doesn't have a terribly broad set of features.

Canon 80D Review

This camera is not specifically "the best" at very much. Cameras like the Nikon D7500 outmuscle it in terms of autofocus and ISO performance, while mirrorless cameras are ahead in features, and Canon's own Rebel lineup wins for price.

Review: the Canon EOS 80D does everything but say cheese

They're right, of course, but focus is pretty damn important too – and that's why Canon's new EOS 80D is one of the best cameras we've used in ages.

Canon EOS 80D ! Just Awosome ...

Moving images aren't entirely negated, of course, with the camera capable of handing Full HD 1080p capture, including both a microphone and headphones sockets for the videographers out there. It's only the lack of 4K capture which sees some competitors, Panasonic GH4 included, offer more.

Canon EOS 80D review

The new 80D, which replaces the 70D launched in July 2013, sits smack in the middle of Canon's SLR line-up, above the 760D and below the 7D Mark II. That puts it in prime enthusiast territory, which means it needs to appeal to people who want to shoot a range of subjects in a variety of conditions.
