Pros: Accessibility and cost, ergonomics, battery, 100% viewfinder, semi-tropicalized body, dynamic range, color science, articulated touchscreen monitor, shutter up to 1/8000, good interface, burst, dedicated keys, flash, weight, auto-focus with good light, lens compartment (even 3rd parts), photographic quality

Cons: AF not always good in low light and not fast or accurate, at 1600-3200max ISO too much noise with little detail and contrasts, JPEG in the camera losing sharpness, auxiliary light present only with Flash; lack of Focus Peaking, Zembras with over/under exposed areas, Intervalometer, Dual ISO, electronic shutter; lack (for now) of Magic Lantern to overcome most of the last things said

Opinion: As an amateur and non-professional photographer, used camera bought 2 years ago instead of the 2000d. This camera for the value for money and the possible lens compartment, also given the Pros, is fantastic and phenomenal even after almost 10 years from its launch. Although it has its years, it is still very valid in the field of APS-C even against Mirrorless. Used for many photos and has never disappointed me, even having made a very reasoned purchase. On the other hand, its negative aspects are felt. In low light it doesn't always focus on the subject, ISO at 800 would already be the maximum to achieve, after which the loss of detail and the amount of noise is a lot (if you still work in RAW). Even shooting in Jpeg during the day makes you lose a bit of detail and quality (comparing it with your RAW or a Jpeg of a Sony A6400), it will be the low pass filter, it will be a bad procession in the camera but the JPEG does not show the details of the RAW. The AF assist beam is there and is useful but it is limited by the fact that it can only be used with the flash active. It lacks some stabilization (whether mechanical of the sensor or electronic) but it would be too much to ask of a 2016 machine. Weight for me is not a con, but as written a positive thing, moving the center of gravity of the weight of the camera + lens towards the latter using a tripod. Finally, the shortcomings mentioned in the "cons", although good, would be remediable with a version (still in progress) of Magic Lantern for 80d that would greatly improve the shot in Live-view. So to recap, even if I have exposed a lot of negative effects it is a wonderful machine especially for the price. By now there is no difference between the APS-C on the market (if not with the same objectives) with those of 2015/2016 except for the procession in the car of the photo. If you process a photo in RAW they will all be practically the same. I recommend this machine to enthusiasts who don't want to spend so much but want to have very good (excellent maybe with FF) results, you won't be disappointed if you know what you're buying. Recommended for: Street photography, Astrophotography, Reportage, Travel, Documentary, Landscape, Portraiture. Less recommended for: Naturalistic, Bird watching, Sporty, Fashion and Macro (for details), Wedding. Overall rating, evaluating everything to date: 3.5/5 (4/5 with Magic Lantern, I don't think anyone will reach 5/5)

Pros: articulated screen, MAF steps, simple settings even for an amateur, touchscreen, price

Cons: Sealing to ISO>1600, Weight

Opinion: My humble opinion as an amateur. I switched to this 80D from a now limiting 2000D so you understand the leap in quality, as well as from a 500 to a Ferrari. Moreover, a machine suggested to me by a user here on the forum (and whom I thank again!). I certainly appreciated the articulated screen of this camera which for me who takes photos from different angles is a must-have. The focus points are great in both LV and viewfinder. You have to spend some time in the settings to find the right team for your needs but the menu is really simple even for me who am not a top :). For these needs, the touchscreen is really comfortable. The only cons to date are the resistance to high ISO (but nothing that cannot be corrected with a PP passage) and the generous weight of the body. If you find it at around 500€ (as in my case) it is a great upgrade for anyone....

Pros: lightness, true reflex ergonomics, LiveView that still has its say (2025), image quality and mid-high range dynamic range (at Canon)

Cons: in 2025 not being a mirroless, that usual annoying safety of the ring of modes

Opinion: I am not a very experienced amateur photographer, so I will limit myself to judging as much as I can appreciate with my hand. Ergonomics: holding it in your hand gives a good feeling, despite being made of plastic (of good quality though), and has the necessary buttons and reasonably capable devices. The only drawback for me is that "damn" button in the middle of the mode ring that acts as a safety to be able to turn the ring: it is true that accidental rotations are avoided, but given where the ring is it was difficult for them to happen (for comparison with eos R and the multifunction touch bar that is either used with release pressure or messes up), And, for those like me who were looking for a camera with excellent value for money to be used for diving at low prices, this creates a bit of inconvenience. But it was not designed for that purpose so that's okay. Of course, being a reflex camera it can have problems with F/B focus, but switching to liveview everything should be solved so you can adapt and, indeed, in liveview you gain the tracking of subjects (only faces, but we are talking about reflex and not mirrorless, mid-range and not high, from 10 years ago so for me VALE) which is always welcome. As said by other users, you can't expect to use it in low light by pushing on ISO: the noise catches the eye in these conditions, especially that of color, but just stay below 800 and shoot with good light. certainly to date there are more performing APSC mirrorless cameras even being at Canon, but for those who appreciate reflexes, ergonomics and want to spend little is fine. I would recommend it to those who want to start with a respectable body without breaking the bank, and for those who want to carry around a second body without spending much and having the certainty that charged the battery a week before it remains a ready and reliable back-up in terms of quality and duration (e.g. Safari)

Pros: Color Science, excellent iso hold, fast autofocus, image detail

Cons: None if you know what you're buying

Opinion: Excellent color for portraits, excellent iso hold up to 1600, good up to 6400, as long as you obviously use resolute lenses, such as the 70-200 2.8, obviously if you use bottle bottoms like the 18-55, any camera body would have a very bad performance. Fast and accurate autofocus, both in LV and in the eyepiece, 45 points of MAF are more than enough to cover most of the scene, also considering the 4 autofocus modes that this camera presents. The 24mpx is the right compromise between detail and ISO sensitivity, on an apsc sensor. Undoubtedly, it is a machine for those who do fairly static work, due to its high weight, especially in combination with resolute canvases, but it is really worth considering it in 2023 as a leap in quality from an entry level. Unlike its big sister 90d, for which I have some doubts in terms of ISO sealing, considering the higher pixel density, 32mpx, compared to the 24 of the 80d, which although it can certainly have a newer processor, therefore processing noise better, will inevitably be greater in low light conditions. That said, if you can find it for £600 used, with just a few shots, it's a great deal

Pros: Color Science, Autofocus in LV, Optimal Workflow

Cons: Viewfinder autofocus, poor usability over 800ISO, video performance can be improved (for 2016)

Opinion: I have been using the 80D for several years. Purchased in 2016 to replace a limiting 600D for me, it was and still is a solid midrange camera. The 24 megapixels are the optimal number, right balance between an optimal workflow and a resolute file. I used it for practically every kind of photography, preferring above all the portrait, where Canon's color science gives its best. Viewfinder autofocus is good if the scene is well lit, much less with high contrasts and low light. To have the best performance you need to shoot from Live View, taking advantage of the Dual Pixel system that has performance not unlike mirrorless, both in speed and precision. In video it is sufficiently solid, while lacking dedicated options and 4K, which in 2016 was present on several bodies of similar range. However, it remains a good body to make small films and / or short films, without having excessive claims of yield. The ISO range, taking into account the period, is rather limited, as the files are sufficiently sharp and workable up to 800ISO, and already the 1600 are preferable only in emergency situations. The workability in general of the files is good, but not excellent especially when compared with today's bodies and with other brands.
