Great upgrade from EOS 50D
17 of 17 found this helpful I have used the Canon 20D, 50D, and now the 80D. Couldn’t be happier. At first, the folding, rotating, touchscreen menu was a bit strange and seemed gimmicky, but the menu system is intuitive and the rotating screen may come in handy at some point. My only concern is the screen itself, as I tend to not be gentle on cameras during hikes, etc. Some of my old lenses have new life now, with the higher available ISO allowing more light in at acceptable noise levels, so low-light shots look nice. Fast autofocus is such a relief as my dying 50D was never too good at it. A variety of added features such as presets, HDR, and artistic effects probably aren’t necessary, by will be fun to try out. The wireless is a bit clunky to set up (a few sub menus to navigate) but not too bad for getting images straight to my iPhone. Overall, this is my new favorite camera!
