Abstract: The Canon EOS 80D is more than just another SLR. Canon has brought a camera to the market that incorporates many innovative functions for photo and video. The key feature is Canon's Dual Pixel CMOS AF which enables fast focussing during live view and vide...
Competent all-rounder, Excellent autofocus in video capture
Sometimes overexposes high-contrast scenes in JPEG mode, No 4K video capture, Still image autofocus not the most reliable
The Canon EOS 70D earned itself a five-star review at Expert Reviews, not because of any specific stand-out feature but for its elegance and competency across the board. The 80D has echoes of the same traits, but three years on and with the 70D still avai...

Great videographer's toolIf you're an amateur or even a pro videographer, the Canon EOS 80D is a great tool for the job. While it's definitely going to show its age a lot faster than its competitors, the camera stands on its own-it's competent, complete...
As with previous additions to Canon's XXD line up, the 80D builds on the strengths of its predecessors, offering enthusiast photographers a powerful APS-C DSLR that's easy to use and gives great results. What's different this time is that Canon has added...
Excellent 24-megapixel stills, Best DSLR autofocusing for movie capture, 45-point autofocus system, Headphone jack
4K video

The 80D isnt as revolutionary as the 70D was when it was released. Nevertheless, its better than its predecessor in a number of areas, including the accuracy of focusing both in and out of live view. The 80D is more responsive at focusing in low light t...

Continuous autofocus unparalleled at this level, 100% optical finder (finally), fast performance and significant buffer, decent image quality throughout, vari-angle touchscreen (with speedy live view)
No 4K video, no second SD slot, viewfinder flare from direct light sources, off-centre 1-point AF not always perfect, no speed increase over 70D, finish looks plasticky
The Canon EOS 80D takes almost everything that was missing or not quite up to scratch in the already impressive 70D and sets it right. Save for a second SD card slot and absence of 4K video there's not a whole lot missing in this mid-range master...
24Mp Dual Pixel CMOS AF sensor, 110 JPEGs or 25 raw file bursts, New AF systems
No increase in maximum frame rate (but it is 7fps)
On paper this looks like a healthy upgrade from the 70D and a great choice for enthusiast photographers. It's going to be an interesting one to test when we get a full production sample...
