Because the Canon 80d has such fantastic autofocus, having the touch screen really makes things easy, especially if you want to do some nice focus pulls

Well designed and easy to operate for almost anyone - novice to pro.- Reasonably affordable with great results for the money.- Good lenses can be had in the EF and EF-S categories that are affordable and worthy of professional images.- Fast and accurate focusing with good pixel clarity and color accuracy

I could never get the 80D to sharp focus

Great Auto focus,m when recording with this camera

Has a really good follow focus.

Nano USM lens so far is really impressive - super fast, silent focusing, and while it's not L lens quality glass, image quality is surprisingly good.

the focus, which I was so excited about, isn't useful at all, because, and it might be user error, I'm constantly getting focused on exactly what I don't want to focus on

Lightweight, great image quality, fast focus acquisition, great high ISO image quality...really good tracking for BIF.

Focus is super fast and accurate

Great focus system and sensor

Even with my shaking hands in that high wind, it did an amazing job with its amazingly fast focus capability

It is a large camera compared to the point and shoot ones I'd been getting, but the images are so much nicer, and the focus is really great.

The 80D is INCREDIBLY FAST focusing in the AI servo mode using the centered 9 point area focusing points setting

The results are stunning for fast focusing relative to the

I was anticipating a great new focusing system, but it is overly complex.

They brag about the 45 point focus system, but I've always found I get mediocre focus when I use anything but single point focus mode for action shots

and so I strongly considered the Canon 7D Mark II which has a faster frame rate and reportedly faster focus, but the touch screen on this camera is a big bonus for me and a few other features.

I kept getting soft focus which I guess was a problem among many 70D's

I cannot seem to get sharp focus regardless of what lens I use, probably an issue with this particular copy, I will most likely send it back

Keep in mind your Canon lenses will not work on those cameras, and even when adapted are not as ideal for auto focus as on a Canon

Although my 70D has served well both for bird and macro photography, especially of wildlife on night-time desert roads (I have Sony and Canon full-frame cameras for portraits, landscapes and other uses), this upgrade offers some valuable features for my particular needs, these in particular: 1) 24mp allows me to crop a little tighter, which is sometimes important when I've photographed a rattlesnake's head from a safe distance and want to tighten the frame without losing appreciable sharpness; 2) focusing in dim light is quicker than with the 70D--I often use a headlamp to focus on macro subjects on moonless roads, and that has sometimes been a problem with the 70D, especially with critters that are moving--the 80D does a noticeably better job; 3) an often unsung advantage that I consider major is the 80D's ability to let you use a 1.4 teleconverter with a 100-400 f5.6 lens--just by upgrading I now have a 600/5.6 birding lens, with solid focusing capacity

Featuring Canon’s industry leading dual pixel auto focus, it can track subjects as they move through the frame, while transitioning focus smoothly and silently (for quietest operation STM lenses are best).

I have been using the camera for about 3 weeks and am loving it, the fast focus, the tack sharp shots, and the additional focus points are awesome

If you wanted a soft focus

Bottom line for those considering the 80D and requiring extremely fast focus is that every review says the 80D is superb and my results totally confirm those reviews

The quality of your lens will be a huge factor as well along with proper lighting and focus.

All it took was a few sessions of missed focus and bad framing to realize what was wrong.

Other pluses: a cleaner menu, more focus points, and somewhat better video (with better tracking focus)

I test the ISO on video not bad u still get
