The editors didn't like
The downside to an advanced autofocus system is that it's complex and getting the best from it takes some input from the photographer. In more advanced cameras like the 7D Mark II
5D Mark III and 1DX Mark II
Canon has tried to help with the Case Studies
Sometimes overexposes high-contrast scenes in JPEG mode
No 4K video capture
Still image autofocus not the most reliable
The automatic white balance isn't very good
And it doesn't have a terribly broad set of features
No increase in maximum frame rate (but it is 7fps)

No 4k video or 1080p above 60p for slow motion, Still photos a little less crisp than those from the D7200, Doesn't have twin memory card slots, No GPS / location logging on smartphone app, No focus peaking, Continue: In depth
Canon's EOS 80D is a mid-range DSLR that's equally confident whether shooting through the traditional optical viewfinder or in Live View with the fully-articulated touch-screen. The new 24 Megapixel APS-C sensor may have four more Megapixels over the earl...

First off, Canon has updated the image sensor on the 80D with an all new 24.2-megapixel, APS-C CMOS image sensor. This offers an additional 4-megapixels of resolution over its predecessor, and they've mated it to their proven DIGIC 6 processor. The inclus...

This is a Canon, so still photos are fine, both JPEG and RAW and high ISO performance is outstanding. It is the video that is a revelation. Simply touch the critical feature of the subject on the touch screen and the camera will track that spot flawlessly
Simple vertical tilting screens work better than fully articulated
The super fast focus makes this camera a joy to use. It is so responsive it feels almost thought-controlled. The new lens works so well with the body that it is an almost indispensable part of the combination. If video is not a priority then the EOS 70D i...
Photographers looking to step up from an entry-level EOS DSLR to one with more serious imaging capabilities should consider the EOS 80D as a possible option, although (like other DSLR cameras) it's not the best choice for anyone with a serious interest in...
