The controls on the 80D are convenient, intuitive, and easy to reach. If you care for this camera well, it should last you a very long time. The body of the 80D is dust and weather sealed giving it additional protection in adverse conditions. What you lose in durability you make up for in less weight to lug around. It doesn’t have quite the durability of the 5D Mark III or 7D Mark II but for most users it is more than enough. The body of the 80D is comprised of a polycarbonate exterior over a magnesium alloy chassis.

It’s a solid camera but not overly heavy. The 80D weighs in at 1.6 pounds, which is almost a half-pound lighter than the 7D Mark II and almost a half-pound more than the T6i.
Canon eos 80d reviews full#
While it’s not as heavy as Canon’s full frame options or the mighty APS-C 7D Mark II, it is more substantial than cameras from Canon’s entry-level Rebel line. The 80D is a solid piece of equipment that feels good in your hands. We put it through its paces to see how it measures up in quality, speed, performance and more.

It competes mightily with cameras like Nikon’s D7200 and Canon’s 7D Mark II and is well loved for its versatility, quality, and reasonable price. This camera, which is loved by photographers and videographers alike, finds the middle ground between entry-level DSLRs and the cameras that the pros use.

The 80D may be a mid-range DSLR but it competes with the big boys in a lot of ways.
