Make sure this fitsby entering your model number. The EOS 80D camera’s Intelligent Viewfinder helps bring the thrill of SLR photography with each use The Intelligent Viewfinder displays AF points and AF mode, has a grid display, a horizontal electronic level, plus numerous other points of information For next-level AF operation, the EOS 80D camera has a wide-area, 45-point, all cross-type AF system with low luminance performance to EV -3 and 4 types of AF area selection modes The 24.2 Megapixel (APS-C) CMOS sensor captures high-resolution images and has refined individual pixels that enable high ISO speeds (16000 for still photographs, 12800 for movies) Canon’s remarkable shutter combined with ability to shoot up to 7.0 fps during continuous shooting ensures quick performance
I upgraded from a Rebel t4i and.. WoW.. I am seriously amazed at the quality of photographs that this thing can take. I didnt think that it could get much better but.. it is awesome. The depth of field is quite a upgrade. The new AF system is excellent at detecting faces and even in full auto mode it works great. I was going to get the D7 mark II but this is a newer camera, and might not be as good as the D7 in some respects, I am happy with getting this one.

This is my new go-to body after destroying a 7D and finding the 6D Mark II complete rubbish. Seriously, this crop sensor body has more DR than a FF? Canon used the most sub-standard sensor (prob 5D rejects) they could in the 6D MkII..., avoid that POS at all costs. Anyway, this is about the 80D and its a fine camera, not much more than the 70D, but a better processing engine and a few upgrades for those who dont have a 70D. If you have a 70D, this wouldnt be worth the "upgrade" to you, just subtle changes, nothing worth the cost of the "upgrade." If you want a do-it-all crop sensor camera, this is it.

I love this camera. It has many wonderful features. I do most of my photo editing on my iPhone. This camera can download its pictures to the iPhone X without any cables or cards. The view finder is excellent as well. Pictures are superb. Its only drawback is the number of features. It is hard to use them all and to know when to use them. I made a wise decision to get this amera. If you are serious about photography then you should look at this one.

Bought this camera just in time for a cross-country trip, and I absolutely love it. Ive owned a lot of cameras in the past, both slr-digital and slr-film, and while this camera is a bit bigger in my hands than I would like (Im female), its actually very easy to handle as far as the buttons are concerned. I really was wondering if I should buy this one or the smaller version, but this choice has really been perfect. Im still learning all the settings - its been a while since I used a manual/auto SLR, but it worked really nicely during my trip and I love the images it captured! I have a degree in Art/Photography from the late 80s, and Ive been using digital cameras since about 1993 for my professional work, but in the past 10 years Ive been using primarily my cell phone(s) for my images as my work has taken me away from the photography field. While my cell phone has been OK for family events, Ive been looking into something more sophisticated in recent years. I have no regrets whatsoever about the Canon EOS 80. This camera has captured some truly amazing photos for me in the past couple of months, and my only frustration is I didnt buy it earlier.

I replaced my well worn 70D with a shiny new 80D and, although they look and feel similar, I found the 80D laden with new features and image quality improvements over its predecessor. CONTROLS: Buttons and wheels feel sturdy and may be used while looking through the viewfinder. Exposure modes are set with a topside knurled dial: manual, semi-auto modes and assorted full auto modes. Menus are easier to navigate than the 70D: five icons (reduced from the 70Ds fifteen) and organized by category. If youve owned prior EOS models, the interface will be familiar and you’ll barely need to crack the manual. The VIEWFINDER is a joy to use: bright and clear and, with 100% coverage and .95x magnification, an improvement over Rebels and the 70D. I love the transmissive LCD display (transparent LCD over the focusing screen) as it’s almost like using an EVF: display of icons, AF and metering patterns, grid and plain matte screens and an electronic level. AUTOFOCUS: The 45-point cross type AF array is fast and sure-footed in low light, besting my 70D in most situations. It has the same AF modes as the 70D—single-point AF, zone AF and automatic selection AF—plus a fourth mode, large zone AF. I was surprised how much more “human aware” auto select mode is compared to the 70D. If a human enters the frame, it locks on them like glue. LiveView has a new AF mode: AI Servo. Tap the subject on the touchscreen, half-press the shutter button and it does a great job of tracking the subject across the screen. It’s perfect for low level shooting of moving critters or kids. IMAGES show pleasing detail, color and impressive control of noise. Specifically, there is a significant reduction in shadow noise over the 70D, allowing aggressive lifting of shadows should the need arise. VIDEO: HD video quality is excellent: less moire artifacts, cleaner in low light and smoother and more film-like compared to 70D files. I’m disappointed 4K HD wasn’t included. However, 1080P is fine for YouTube since audiences mainly watch on phone and notebook screens. Movie servo is faster than 70D servo and less prone to “hunting” in low light. Focus-pulls are a snap with the touch screen. Movie servo with face recognition works great, allowing me to both shoot and perform in video clips. WI-FI: Diddle settings, fire shutter, upload images and monitor LiveView and video on an iPhone/iPad, Droid or computer with the Canon Connect app. Wi-Fi eats batteries crazy fast, so carry spares. Video and LiveView are also available via wired USB or HDMI connection and are smoother and less battery draining. The 80D kit ships with the Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 Image Stabilization USM Lens (Black) lens. It’s a wonderful optic and I wrote a detailed review on it here . FINAL BURB: The 80D is a nimble and capable camera, and an impressive upgrade over the 70D in terms of AF, resolution and control of shadow noise. The bottom line is the many small improvements add up to an enjoyable experience and excellent images and videos.

Its been about 2 years since I bought this camera as my first DSLR. So far, the camera hasnt disappointed my expectations. I will leave its pros and cons to the other reviewers. But I didnt expect low quality of lens 18-135mm IS USM that came with the camera for additional $500. After less than 2 years of very rare use, I found last week that its auto/manual focus did not work at all - no sound of lens motor nor focus improvement in viewfinder and live view with half-pressed shooting button. Of course, I followed full cycle of checking with battery and menu options with other lens to find out that its really the lens with no focus. No surprise why its warranty is just 1 year.

A tremendous upgrade from my previous Canon EOS Xsi, which I had used extensively and loved. Nice to be able to use most of the same lenses even though had to go with at least one new one of them, also! Am learning many new capabilities with this model and so far am very pleased with the results of a multitude of taken images. It has been a very exciting learning experience and there just does not seem to be enough hours in the day to go get more. Extremely good camera.

I cried unashamedly when I unwrapped the Christmas wrapping to reveal what Id saved up for for seven months, and my wife had bought for me from Amazon.com. This is an upgrade from a Rebel XSI. I really loved that camera, but it had been getting long in the tooth as Id been reading about the new ones coming out the last three years. When this one hit the market, that was it! I told her, "Yup, thats the one I want!" Well, love is giving. She gave me this camera, and Ive been ecstatic since. We live on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. Yesterday, there were 35-40 knot winds from the west, as is the norm. I took the 80D and got some photos of the lighthouse that two people have already said are "award winners", with the waves smashing up the side of the breakwall, the sun making a ghostly shadow of the lighthouse itself onto the spray. I dont know about the "award winners" part, but the photos wouldnt have been possible with the XSI; it couldnt take photos at 7fps, as the 80D did yesterday. Even with my shaking hands in that high wind, it did an amazing job with its amazingly fast focus capability. Theres so much info right there for you at the press of a button on the screen before you start, and its so easy to adjust anything you need to in just seconds. Its a dream to work with for me, and at 67, Im kinda thankful for that. If youre looking for a great camera thats better than a beginners model, but wont run you the $3500.00 a 5D Mark IV will, THIS is the guy youre looking for. Man, this thing feels so good in your hand, its silly. The Rebel was a touch on the small side; the 80D is perfect. Its really nice to have that info window on the top, too. Thats a lot of help when you make yourself aware of and start utilizing it. Okay, Ive said enuff. This is one beautiful machine, and I love it! Get one if you can. You wont regret it. Bioman out.

Ive been using Canon DSLRs since 2008, starting with the XSi and progressing to the T3i, 60D, 70D and now the 80D.... Ive also used the 6D MKII and the Sony A7III... For pure image quality, both of those full framers blow this away... BUT: The autofocus on the 80D is more usable than on the 6D MKII as there are 45 points that are more spread out.. The focus on the A7III is even quicker, despite the fact that the AF on this camera (with the right lenses-See the new USM lenses!) is super fast... Reasons I chose THIS over the A7III: Fully-Articulated and FULLY TOUCHABLE SCREEN!! Dual Pixel AF in Live View THAT GRIP! The fact that it takes the same battery as my 70D and the 60D and the 5D series as well... The fact that it comes with an actual CHARGER! The fact that my 70D battery grip fits this camera with no problem.. The fact that my Yongnuo flashes work as well as they did with the 70D (which is to say not perfectly, but well enough) The fact that my strobes/trigger work as expected with this camera and NOT with the A7III The fact that I can drop this camera and not think twice about it..Not that I would... The fact that I can flip the screen around to face inwards, when transporting the camera/not using live view and KNOW that the screen is protected.. The fact that this camera will NEVER overheat.. The optical viewfinder is superior to the EVF on the Sony except for the fact that you can preview your exposure, although you can do that on this camera in live view if you wish...I much prefer optical...Its true that you can see in lower light through the EVF on the sony, when youd see inky blackness on the OVF, BUT, the evf image is noisy and if its that dark, you should be using flash/strobes or just not shoot... The built in flash-It works much better than they used to.. CANONs LENS ECOSYSTEM: Many many options out there (WAY more than Sony) and there are far less expensive options for Canon than for Sony, although Sonys lenses are mirrorless system specific and much sharper... A great used/aftermarket for lenses....And other accessories A TON of useful accessories/3rd party and OEM for Canon... I can carry the 80D around all day with a long lens on it, holding it just by the grip and my hand doesnt get tired, whereas with the Sony I want to put it down after like 5 minutes... ONE CARD SLOT! Its SO MUCH SIMPLER...I THOUGHT 2 card slots was a MUST because the "pros" on YT told me so, but in reality, for an amateur, its just a PITA...I MUCH prefer the super quick way I can change memory cards and batteries on the 80D vs the Sony and others.... LENS RELEASE BUTTON; Its between the lens and the grip on the A7III and on the opposite side (where it belongs!) on the 80D... Much quicker to change lenses... Sensor Protection-The 80D has a mirror that stays in place when you change lenses....The Sony and other mirrorless cameras have a naked sensor exposed to the world when you remove the lens, except the EOS R and I think the Nikon twins-Z7 and Z6, which drop a shutter down when the lens is removed.. Battery Door-On the 80D, you flick it open, pop out the battery, slot in a new one-sticking it in the natural way youd think it would go btw) and slam the door shut, job done....On the Sony, you have to hold the tiny latch as you close the door...But the memory card door works like the Canon, so why the inconsistency? REACH-So on this Crop Sensor/APS-C camera, a 70-200 lens becomes/looks like/behaves like, etc etc...A 112-320! lens...So you basically get 60% more reach..Of course, you get short-changed on the wide end, but length is better than width anyway... AND THE BIG REASON: PRICE! The 6D MKII is now $1299 with a free (and actual Canon) battery grip...an amazing deal! BUT, it was originally $2000!!!!!! The A7III IS $2000 BODY ONLY! Yes, I know its $1998, but by the time you add tax, its over $2K! AND, by the time you add two decent lenses, youre talking $4K... I was able to buy a refurbished 80D and two lenses for $1450...With a battery charger! So I saved roughly $2550, which is enough to pay for a nice vacation, on which I can use my new camera! Or I can buy the Sony and just stay home and take pics of my walls... For me, with my long history of Canon DSLR ownership and my needs, the 80D just made/makes sense... Highly Recommended!

Install Flash Player Excellent camera. I bought this for my new Blog and also for some vlogging as well. The camera is very well built and I found myself purchasing additional lens almost immediately. I do love the touchscreen monitor thats also fully articulating as well. I didnt do a good job of demonstrating this in my video but just know that it fully rotates which is nice for vlogging. The kit lens 18-135mm is good but not ideal for vlogging unless your using a tripod or something like that. Highly recommend. I also did a brief review so you can check that out as well.
