best review video ever! finally someone shows difference between cameras and compare them to each other. I am about to by my first camera and Idk nothing about it, you clear things out for me. gonna get myself 80d just because it's brand new and it's ok for beginners. keep doing what you doing, as I said it's the best review ever. tnx again

[@Daniel_Ilyich]

I don't think the Nikon D5500 is the correct competitor to the 80D. The Nikon 7200, at $1096.95 on BH would be the closer competitor.

[@thefirekisser]

+Danny B. I agree, it would make for a better comparison

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Danny B. The price of the D7200 is closer to the 80D, but the D7200 lacks the articulating touch screen. That, to me, is the 80D's defining feature. Functionally the D7200 is more similar to the 7D series. If you have questions about the comparison, you can ask. We showed the results for the D7200's focusing test, and the D7200 image quality is very slightly better than the D5500 (though the sensors are really similar).

[@Daniel_Ilyich]

+Tony Northrup I can live with that reasoning. ;-) Have a pleasant Sunday.

[@Jack_Danyo]

I own the D7200 and highly recommend that camera. I had an option of either getting the 70d but the image quality was the deciding factor for me to go with d7200. I use it mainly for photography and not video. it is still manageable for video. who cares about the screen unless your primary purpose is for video. anyways consider your budget, used is probably better.

[@DASSphotography]

nikon D5500 doesnt has HSS sync, and no AF motor :( and it's plastic body, no weather sealed. 80D is much better in those things.

[@MarttiSuomivuori]

Whoa. Even Tony Northrup cannot get the Sony mirrorless to focus! And I thought it was my idiocy that spoiled the low light shots I tried with my A6000. I think I sell it if I find a buyer.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Martti Suomivuori We've always believed the tales of a6000's amazing focusing system were myths... check our reviews of that camera: northrup.photo/reviews/cameras/sony/a6000/

[@Gjallarhorn_Productions]

Holy crap this video was super good. Exactly what I needed to make the leap and go for the 80D. Thank you

[@wyoruss]

If only the a6300 had a fully articulating touch screen. : ( It would be the perfect camera for me. The 80D lacks 4k video but the auto focus is amazing. Maybe the 90D will be the prefect camera with 4k video. Or maybe the Gh5 will have amazing auto focus and be the camera to beat. For now I have a Panasonic G7 and love it.

[@selinasel465]

Which camera is the best for street fashion photography ? I take my own pictures with a remote shutter release. D5500 D7200 A6000 A6300 700D 80D

[@the40thstep]

I'm not sure what you guys did because a6300 is double the ISO range and capability of 80D and the AF, especially on the eye is arguably the fastest AF...

[@FutureChaosTV]

I watched a lot of review and comparison videos of the 80d and 6d mkii but this is the first one that covered the autofocus system extensively as well as low light capability. I think you helped me decide on the 80d (love the touchscreen focusing) to supplement or replace my 600d (Rebel T3i?) that just doesn't cut it anymore in low light situations. The focusing system just throws itself out of the window at very low evening light and "handshake secure" 1/60th. Can't compensate with higher ISOs because I think anything above 400/800 ISO looks very noisy even with a 50mm/f1.8 Thank you!

[@blackentrepreneur244]

FutureChaosTV right now I shoot with a Canon T6. I've been looking at 80D Vs 6d mark II videos all day. Idk, I still may go with the Mark II because of the full frame aspect

Santhosh Mohan Santosh Kitne Ka Liya ? Abbhi Mai Bhi Lunga. Lence Bhi Liya Kya ?

[@thesharpercoder]

A lot of things are wrong with this video, beginning with comparing the 80D to a Nikon D5. What about a Canon 1Dx II? I was surprised when tony said the 80D was not focusing well at f/8 with an adapter. The 80D has 27 AF points. He claimed the 7D2 was better, which only has 1 f/8 AF point. He immediately debunked the 7D2 AF system superiority claim when the 80D totally outperformed the 7D2 in low light.

[@nagol5178]

Should only be six more months until we can finally have our 5D Mark iV, aren't you excited Tony!?!? I'm hoping I make enough in the next six months off of just my photography so it pays for its self. The 80D dynamic range being better than the full frame cameras is good news. Should be even better on the full frame. However, it's never been a big issue to me. But that 1DX Mark ii focus system -3EV, dual pixel AF, hopefully with touch screen, and 4k.... I'll be set the next four years! It'll be cool to see the next 5DSR as well, I don't think they will wait 4 years on it. The market has changed.

[@ruff1draft]

The Nikon d5500 is great and has great battery life great for just taking photographs and I enjoy useing it

[@Marlon_Torres]

Would have been nice if the 80D had 4K capability.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Marlon “MarlonPTY” Torres Yeah, lack of 4k is the only thing stopping this from being the best video camera available.

[@ChunkyJo]

So if I don't care about 4k, then this is the perfect camera for the price range?

[@TheHopper]

Even if had lot of people(indie, vloggers) wouldn't use it because editing post production is pain in the a**. For the same reasons i switched to lesser resolution.

[@RyanH0809]

[@BarefootMediaTV]

nikon d750 is full frame and has a 3d focus tracking for sports/portraits that is amazing. I got mine on ebay for 1400

[@HKarlsson]

Isn't that camera full of manufacturing problems? It sure is a super cool/great camera, but it is often in the media because of faults.

[@BarefootMediaTV]

Henrik Karlsson the only issue i knew off when buying it was something about a purple hue appearing in certain video shots. I've actually started using this for video over my panasonic gh4 and have taken thousands of photos with 0 problems. The 3d focusing mode has made me like it for photos more than any other camera ive ever used too.

[@markshirley01]

PeglegMedia I have the D750 excellent stills and very nice video codec - but for run and gun video (focusing fast) I'm supplementing it with a 80D. The touch screen and dual pixel AF is a dream to me.

[@sigmaoctantis_nz]

Why are you comparing it to the D5500 and not the D7200? The D5500 is T6i/750D territory and I don't think an articulating touchscreen alone makes much of a difference. I have recommended the D7200 to someone who wants the 80D so a comparison between the two would be helpful.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Sigma Octantis The articulating touchscreen makes a pretty huge difference in how you use the camera. If you don't need it, instead compare the D7200 and 7D Mk II.

[@skatertwig26]

Honestly I am loving the a6300. The af in low light is not the best but in good light it is great. I love having the slog profiles too, the 4k is so crisp. My biggest disappointment in it is the lack of a touch screen and still no usb 3.0 or type C. I mean USB 3.0 has been around for 8 years now, Sony needs to just upgrade from 2.0. Tethering raw files is so slow. I love the camera though, Don't miss my a7 or g7 haha

[@Klahsy]

[@mandurahchess]

I have been looking for a comparison of the 6D and the 80D, Not having a lot of luck. I find they often compete for the same photographers' dollar, a comparison would be helpful.

[@peterzpictstube]

Nice summary, I have always admired the 70D and even more so the 80D. I consider them to be the ultimate Daddy cameras for covering the family documentation on all fronts very well. But already being in the Nikon system I am glad my D7200 is still the king of crops for IQ that you didn't show in comparisons. I love mine more than ever now that I own a Sigma 18-35 I can see all the 24MP goodness.

[@LORDgregz1]

Very wrong.. Sorry to correct you Tony.... A6000 and a6300 in low light... Switch AF to AFC then switch Off Live View display.... In sports switch AFC On then Flexible spot with Focus tracking..... Mirrorless cameras has different AF System than DSLR ...

So, the 80D basically fixed all the minor annoyances I had with my 70D except for better controls. Waiting for a good deal before I upgrade.

[@CarswithB]

Do u recommend the 70D or 80d?

[@horndogy2k6]

80D for sure if you have yet to buy. 3 reasons: 1. Better DR sensor. 2. A couple of body improvements (extra custom mode and 100% VF) 3. A couple of firmware updates (Exp comp. available in manual mode + auto ISO, intervalometer, etc...) And that's only for stills; I'm not knowledgeable enough on video to weigh in on that front.

[@horndogy2k6]

Only advantage for 70D over 80D is price, period. I'm waiting for the inevitable price drop on the 80D to buy one.

[@christopherdunn5799]

+juhva It would be more fair to say you get more access to "native" lenses on the EF system with a 6D. I believe that was the intention. If you compare EF-S to EF, considering with EF lenses you aren't even using all the glass on a crop body...

[@redauwg911]

Excellent video Tony, Very well done thank you. I was wondering how the old 7D compared since there so cheap now.

[@3BMEP]

Tony, GREAT review, very thorough. Question: how is it that the 80D was far superior to the a6300 when focusing in low light for stills, but the results were reversed in video?

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Three Blind Men and An Elephant Productions Thanks, Hugh! We used the viewfinder for stills focusing (using the 80D's DSLR-style phase detect focusing) but live view for video focusing (using the 80D's on-sensor dual-pixel AF).

[@3BMEP]

+Tony Northrup To confirm, then: the 80D is better at stills focusing while the a6300 is better for video? Fascinating if true!

Thanks anyway for ur good content!

[@DilPower]

I think that's an understatement @Tony, the 6D autofocus SUCKS! (I own one lol) One thing I noticed with the 80D (I tried one in store) is that the dual pixel is sooo fast it can be used for stills very well (except fast moving I guess). I love the touch screen for that... plus more precise focus in live view (I miss focus all the time at 1.2-1.8 on my silly 6D). Perfect camera? 80D with a FF sensor :D!

[@michaeldidomenico7]

I am a 70D owner and I love the camera, but I am going to upgrade to the 80D for some of it's video options and better shadow recovery

[@thomas15082]

I like your videos especially when Chelsea joins for balanced reviews (haha). I’ve an 80d and use ef 70-200 (+1.4extender occasionally) for long shots and ef 100-400 for air shows. So, all the ef range of Canon ef glass is really open to apc cameras, not just ef-s lenses. And my ef-s 17-55 f 2.8 for dimly lit museums and ef-s 15-85 for street photography fit their purpose perfectly.

[@randomgeocacher]

Rolling shutter: So 70d surprisingly did great, and all the others did horrible. Something about the composition of the 80d shot made me really hate that shot even if a6300 and GH4 seems technically equally bad. The a6300 composition made it much less obvious. Which is the thing about rolling shutter, it hurts some images not all. For example: when you are driving and talking (mr safety hazard), you are the the focus and outside is blurred. Since our brains isn't processing he outside, a rolling shutter issue in that shot probably wouldn't matter at all. Great review as always Tony & crew!

[@anunheardtruth3071]

7fps isn't ideal for ducks! Mallards, wood ducks and shovelers flap their wings at approximately 7 wingbeats per second at level flight, so you will often end up with burst images that have almost the exact same wing posture. Goldeneyes and Surf Scoters flap faster around 9 beats so you will probably get some more variation in posture. Shooting in intermittent bursts does help though.

[@cooloox]

Hi Tony, great review, as usual. One point I am not sure I agree with you upon is the shadow noise compared to the D5500. The 80D shadows were lighter to begin with! This means you should have pushed the D5500 shadows to match and then see how noise compared. Why push the shadows in both cameras equally rather than matching them visually? In other words, if you are going to push the D5500, say 3 stops, only push the 80D 2.5 stops because it will end up the same brightness anyway. In real life we aim for a correct exposure, not just to copy what we did on another camera. Great overall review though and I'm definitely buying an 80D. I love watching your videos.

[@1barnet1]

+cooloox Why don't just click on this link and see what you want www.dpreview.com/news/7168986570/canon-shows-dynamism-eos-80d-breaks-new-ground-for-canon-low-iso-dr All reviewers seem to agree on this. The 80d is improved significantly in this regard. But couldn't close the gap entirely. Tony's makeshift test brought forth the same conclusions as people doing more controlled tests. That being said the 80d is indeed a great all-rounder. If it only had C-log and 4k. It would be in back-order all the way to Japan

[@cooloox]

+1barnet1 Thanks for the link. I'll take a look in the morning when I'm at my PC. It's 12.30am here. I knew the 80D was still a little behind the D7200, wasn't sure about the D5500.

[@1barnet1]

cooloox Same difference. The D5500 is the equiv. of the D7200 in that aspect. It isn't in terms of autofocus(TTL). Something Canon really got right with the 80d. Not 7d mk2 right but definately as good if not better in some ways as the D7200. That said Tony is reporting ridiculously good numbers for the D5. Considering the D500 uses the same hardware for AF i think there is a new King of Apsc sports coming soon.

[@MichaelHurdleStudio]

Good stuff here bro. Do you think we might see an 90D anytime this year?

[@josephkarpinski9586]

Well, I would like to see a more specific test of the AF features of the 80D versus the 7D Mark II. Attach the Canon 100-400mm II lens with the Canon 1.4x extender III to each, giving a reach of 896mm. The Canon 7D Mark II works at f8 with a single AF point. The Canon 80D works at f8 with up to 27 AF points. For wildlife photography, especially birds in flight, where a single AF point comes up short, 27 AF points is a welcome change. People were excited about the 7D Mark II working with a single AF point at f8, with the Canon 1.4x extender. The Canon 80D, working with 27 AF points, with the 1.4x extender iii, and it’s newer lenses like the 100-400mm II, is huge. Maybe huge enough to sell the Canon 7D Mark II, with its many excellent features, and buy the Canon 80D. 896mm with up to 27 AF points, is a game changer, for many amateur wildlife photographers.

I can get 50fps on the 760D but it's 720p. The Sony seems nice but the lack of articulating screen is a right deal breaker. I might rent an 80D and see if it really makes a difference.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Josue Ramirez Nikon doesn't have a direct competitor to the 80D. The D7200 is a similar price but functionally it's very different. Functionally, the D7200 is more like the 7D series of cameras, because it lacks the articulating touch screen and adds a thumb stick and more weather sealing. I did compare the D7200 for the focusing test, however. If you're curious about image quality, the D7200 is very slightly better than the D5500 images shown in the video.

[@JosueRamirez]

+Tony Northrup Thanks for you response, so the D7200 has a better weather sealing than the D80? Currently I own the D7100 and am thinking on moving to a more video friendly camera, like Canon 70D or 80D. But for photo, I'm actually very happy with my Nikon. Your videos really help to see the strengths and weakness. Thanks in advance and hope you and your team keep doing such a great job.

+Tony & Chelsea Northrup The 80D does have free manual single AF point selection. Your statement in the Video is wrong.

[@tommoh0087]

I have shooted a lot of indoor sports with Canon 10 series cameras from different years. The lesson learned is that ISO performance is not good enough with 70-200 2.8 lens most of the time. You really need fullframe body to boost your ISO. I don't even see that grain in the pictures is the problem but colors seems to be quote washed out when you start pusing the ISO. For some reason recreating the colors in post processing seems to be really chanllenging and time consuming when picture is take in fluorecent light, I don't know why. If you still want to have good indoor sport pictures with Canon 10 serias the key is to take a lot of pictures. Once in the while there might be a decently focused one in the pack.

[@TechKasco]

Tony, May I ask; is the 80D's competitor the D7200? the 80D lineup is for video and the D7200 lineup is for what? (im just so curious) Will Nikon make a good video camera to compete with the 80D? Just your expectations. -Andrew

Nice review, I just wish you would have went more in depth on all of the functions and features and testing those out.

Anyway, I already ordered and will be getting the 80D in just over a week, I can't wait to start using it. I'm upgrading from the 7D. The fact it's a fantastic all around camera is what sold me (I shoot several types of photography). Also, the vari-angle touch screen and wi-fi with remote shooting was a big selling point as well.

I like you channel a lot but, How do you compare a $1200 camera (80D) with a $6500 camera (D5) if I shoot sports or wild life and I have the money, why bother.

[@Diggnuts]

Going full frame in the canon line up means you have LESS lenses to choose from as the FF lensen fit on APS-C body, but the EF-s do not not on the FF bodies.

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+Diggnuts I added an annotation to clarify this, but check sdp.io/ffcrop

[@Diggnuts]

Tony Northrup Right, but instead of clarifying it, this video just adds more myths and mistakes on top of this one. The crop-factor times aperture argument for instance is complete baloney. Just spot meter with the same lens + setting on and C and FF body to see how this is uninformed tripe. Don't be a Jared Polin...

T&C - Yet another fantastic (and ever improving) video! Thanks for all of your awesome work! Can't say enough great stuff about you! BTW, the Sony a6300 was slow to focus in low light in your example because you used the especially cheap & slowest focusing lens for it, the SEL50F18. It's insanely sharp (per DXOMark and my own experience) and fantastic in every way except one: focusing speed! I got mine used but mint for around $200 on E-Bay. Try the SEL35F18 for faster focus.

New here. Great video. I’ve been contemplating getting this camera for a while now. This definitely gave me some good insight on the 80D. Thanks 😊

[@paulinefollett3099]

Nice comparisons. A real insight into these camera.

[@fivestardallas985]

Great Video. I was comparing and watching so many different reviews, I found yours is the best. I had Canon t4i then t6s. Now Canon 6d. I love 6d result, specially works so well in low light and big time difference in colors and sharpness. I love Canon 6D. I guess, if you ever buy Full Frame, you will never go back to crop sensor. Pictures are wider and sharper, vivid & crisp. I wanted to thank you once again to make such great video, helping people like me to pick right body.

[@Chicxulub65M]

At the 6:00 you contrast 7DMkII with the 80D saying the 80D lacks the single point AF option. Did it originally not have this. I bought an 80D in November and it has that option. That is how I have mine set up, with just the very center one active.

[@gofortheheart]

I found this video super helpful and easy to follow

[@Unclewalnut]

Hey Tony. I am a huge fan of yours. Could you please answer a question for me? You say at the 6:00 minute mark of this video that the 80D does not have single point auto focus. I have seen other reviews on this camera that show the single point auto focus in use. I almost always use single point so I can focus on the eye of the wildlife I shoot. That is a deal breaker for me if the 80D does not have it. Did they release a new version or offer a firmware update that added this feature? Thank you sure for your content.

[@MonsterGadgets]

I'm curious to know, have you tried the 80D with a L lens to shoot video? I've had some issue with the sound when I did it. I posted a a video on my channel to show. Please take a look and I'm interested to know what you think. Thanks!

[@Ambarina]

Such a great all-encompassing review - thanks!!!

[@BrynnCarrollARTIST]

Help! I cant seem to shoot a still while in video mode (not shooting actual video just like using the screen to view from). I was able to do this all the time with my 70d and now I can't with my 80d. What am I doing wrong?

[@PeeHooo]

I think D7200 is direct competor for 80D and not D5500?

[@TonyAndChelsea]

+PeeHooo nikon doesn't have a direct competitor to the 80D. The D7200 lacks the articulating touch screen, which is the defining trait.

[@PeeHooo]

All right, fair point. Btw how would compare D7200 and 80D in terms of autofocus? You showed low light scene but how about tracking etc?

[@austinsykes2100]

Tony & Chelsea Northrup would you recommend the 80d or 7d mark ii?

[@laszu7137]

Just watch the video. -_-

[@fixitrod4969]

Did you say "those balls to my face"! Ahhahhahahaaaa! 10:08 of this video cracked me up... Sorry to be a child but ahhahhahahaaaa

[@ngarrigue]

You spoiled us with much betters reviews. Even dough I appreciate the work! Thanks.

[@-------8282]

I currently have the 7d mk ii and love it, I use it for filming and mostly sports. I'd love to upgrade to the 1d X mark ii later on.

[@naldoxable]

What software did you used to do the comparison side by side? Lightroom?

[@Captain-Cosmo]

The claim that a 6D will have greater access to lenses is a bit backwards, given that both the 80D and 6D are compatible with all of the same fullframe lenses while the 80D enjoys compatibility with the EF-S line, as well. I use a 5DIV and L glass for all of my pro work, but I really enjoy the 80D and EF-S lenses for travel where I value the smaller size, lighter weight, and -- in areas prone to theft -- less cost and vulnerability.

[@breezair3875]

Canon 77d vs canon 80d which is the best camera plz reply sir

[@falkondezigns5397]

80 d any day

[@TJuice1986]

Wouldn’t you get access to more lenses with a crop sensor? You can get EFs and EF lenses instead of just EF.

[@bjorker40]

Looking at the 80D now ! Thanks so much
