Characterized by versatile imaging specs, the Canon EOS 80D further clarifies itself using a
pair of robust focusing systems and an intuitive design. Featuring a 24.2MP
APS-C CMOS sensor and DIGIC 6 image processor, this sleek DSLR is capable of
capturing high-resolution images at up to 7 fps and Full HD 1080p60 video, both
with reduced noise and high sensitivity up to an expanded ISO 25600 for working
in difficult lighting conditions. When working with the optical viewfinder, an
apt 45-point all cross-type AF system affords fast performance in a range of
lighting conditions for tracking moving subjects and working in low light,
while the Dual Pixel CMOS AF system benefits live view shooting and movie
recording by providing a smooth, natural focusing quality akin to the way a
camcorder acquires focus. Touch-to-focus is availed by the large 3.0"
1.04m-dot touchscreen LCD, which also sports a swiveling vari-angle design for
working from high and low angles with ease. Additionally, built-in Wi-Fi with
NFC allows you to pair mobile devices with the camera to wirelessly transfer
files for sharing your photos and movies online. More than just a
well-connected DSLR, the 80D is equally matched in imaging versatility due to
its inclusion of multimedia feature-sets for stills shooting and movie
recording.
24.2MP APS-C CMOS Sensor and DIGIC 6 Image Processor
Featuring a 24.2MP
APS-C CMOS sensor and DIGIC 6 image processor, the 80D is capable of producing
high-resolution imagery with notable clarity and minimal noise, as well as a
native sensitivity range of ISO 100-16000 that can be further expanded to ISO
25600 to support working in low-light situations. The sensor and processor
combination also avails fast performance throughout the camera system,
including the ability to shoot continuously at up to 7 fps or record Full HD
1080p video at 60 fps in the MP4 format.
45-Point All Cross-Type AF and Dual Pixel CMOS AF Systems
Benefitting stills
shooting with the optical viewfinder, a wide-area 45-point all cross-type
phase-detection autofocus system provides quick and precise focusing in
difficult lighting conditions down to -3 EV. For working with telephoto lenses
fitted with extenders, 27 of the points are capable of focusing down to f/8 and
the center dual cross-type offers increased precision at brighter aperture
values. The cross-type design of the sensors affords greater accuracy in
low-contrast and mixed lighting conditions, and the broad coverage of the 45
sensors is ideal for tracking and maintaining focus on moving subjects. Making
use of the 45-points is a series of four AF area selection modes, including
single-point AF; Zone AF, where you can select from one of nine AF zones; Large
Zone AF, which offers a choice of three selectable zones; and 45-point AF auto
selection, which allows the camera to select a single point automatically.
When recording video or shooting in live view, a Dual Pixel CMOS AF system is employed that offers smooth and fast focusing performance in a similar manner to how a camcorder acquires focus. This system integrates two separate photodiodes within each pixel to provide a broad and dense network of phase-detection gathering elements across a majority of the image sensor to reduce focus hunting for faster, more direct control of focus placement. When working with still imagery, this focusing system works to acquire focus quickly and accurately, making it ideally suited to shooting and tracking moving subjects so that critical focus is attained with each shot. When shooting video, a Movie Servo AF mode offers smooth and natural focusing when changing from different subjects or different distances within the scene, as well as the ability to specify tracking sensitivity, AF speed, and Face Tracking priority. Benefited by the Touch AF system, rack focus is possible simply by touching elements within the scene on the touchscreen in order to change focus in an intuitive manner. Subject tracking in movies is also heightened due to the Dual Pixel CMOS AF system's ability to recognize subjects and maintain focus when working within changing or cluttered scenery.

Full HD 1080p Video Recording
In addition to
stills recording, the 80D also supports Full HD 1080p video recording at up to
30 fps in the MOV format with ALL-I compression, or 60 fps in the MP4 format
with IPB compression. Video recording is benefitted by the inclusion of Dual
Pixel CMOS AF and the Movie Servo AF focusing functions, as well as the
touchscreen design of the LCD monitor for intuitive control. Additionally, both
headphone and microphone jacks are incorporated in the body design for advanced
control over audio recording.
Unique to most video recording systems, the 80D also features an HDR Movie mode that can be used to achieve greater highlight and shadow detail when recording in high contrast scenarios. This mode captures two HD frames at different exposures, one normal and one underexposed, in short succession at up to 60 fps and then composites them during playback at 30 fps to create a movie with a longer-appearing dynamic range.
