SHARE YOUR PASSION THROUGH IMAGES USING
THE NEW EOS 80D DSLR CAMERA AND EF-S 18-135mm NANO USM LENS
Designed to Help Unleash the Creative Potential in Us All, New Imaging Technology
Will Help You Shoot & Share Amazing Images and Video
MELVILLE, N.Y., February 17, 2015 – Artists looking to turn their passion into popular online videos or to show the world their unique perspective through social networks now have a new tool available to them that helps them tear down creative barriers and produce dynamic visual content for both still and video. Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, is proud to introduce the new Canon EOS 80D Digital SLR camera, featuring an new 45-point AF system1, 24.2 megapixel CMOS sensor for crisp images with fine detail. For the budding videographer or online video star, the camera features Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus (DAF) technology coupled with an intuitive touchscreen capability for easy focusing when shooting video.
Canon is also introducing a new EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM lens optimized for high-speed autofocusing when shooting stills and quiet and smooth zoom when shooting video. The lens is also compatible with Canon’s new Power Zoom Adapter for smooth cinematic ‘pulls’ when changing focal length on a subject, and responsive adjustments at the push of a button for stills or video.
Updated features in Canon EOS 80D DSLR Camera include:
New 45-point all cross-type AF system
Intelligent Viewfinder with approximately 100% viewfinder coverage
Newly Developed 24.2 Megapixel (APS-C) CMOS sensor

“In today’s world, where everyone is a photographer or videographer, we at Canon are looking to provide the tools and features that help creative-minded people stand out from the pack and get noticed. The right technology cannot make someone creative, but it will help bring a creative vision to life,” said Yuichi Ishizuka, president and COO, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “The right combination of camera and lens helps those with a vision stand out and be recognized. We look forward to seeing what this new generation of passionate artists will create with these new tools.”
New AF System and Dual Pixel CMOS AF
The 45-point all cross-type viewfinder AF system in the new Canon EOS 80D DSLR camera, compared to 19-points in the Canon EOS 70D DSLR camera, is now wider both horizontally and vertically for easier compositions with off-center subjects. Low light AF performance has been improved all the way down to EV-3 at the center point to achieve sharp results even in extreme low-light situations. The camera’s AI (Artificial Intelligence) Servo AF II autofocusing system utilizes color tracking with a 7,560-pixel RGB+IR metering sensor that automatically detects skin tone and colors to enhance tracking sensitivity, even with moving subjects that are rapidly changing pace or direction. Enhancing the ease-of-use of the new AF system is the Canon EOS 80D’s new Intelligent Viewfinder which features approximately 100% viewfinder coverage. The full coverage helps prevent photographers from missing objects that are in the corners of the scene, which can reduce the need to crop images later on.
Dual Pixel CMOS AF employs a new Canon CMOS sensor with which all of the effective pixels are able to perform both still imaging and phase-detection AF simultaneously to achieve dramatically improved AF performance during Live View and video shooting. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology in the Canon EOS 80D camera features enhanced tracking sensitivity and is compatible with the full line of Canon EF Series lenses, including the new Canon EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM standard zoom lens.
High-Quality Still and Video Image Performance
Featuring a new 24.2 megapixel APS-C Canon CMOS sensor and Canon’s superb DIGIC 6 Image Processor, as well as an improved still image ISO range of 100–16000 (Video ISO range 100–12800, both expandable to 25600), the Canon EOS 80D DSLR camera is capable of producing sharp, detailed images and videos even in low-light conditions. High-speed continuous shooting up to seven frames per second (fps) combined with the 45-point all cross-type AF allows photographers to capture fast moving subjects easily and accurately, while the camera’s Scene Intelligent Auto Mode delivers optimized photos and offers outstanding scene detection for amazing results even when shooting in low light. HDR mode provides creative filter effects, such as natural, art standard, art bold, art vivid and art embossed. For added convenience, the Canon EOS 80D camera features Anti-Flicker shooting, similar to that found in the EOS 7D Mark II DSLR camera. Anti-Flicker shooting produces consistently high-quality results even when shooting in areas with fluorescent lighting or other flickering light sources by detecting the flicker cycle of the light source and shooting when brightness is near its peak.
When users select the EOS Movie mode, the Canon EOS 80D DSLR camera offers the ability to shoot in 1080p Full HD video up to 60 fps, compared to 30 fps in the Canon EOS 70D, in MP4 format and in either ALL-I or IPB compression modes with optional embedded time code. For expanded creativity the Canon EOS 80D DSLR camera features HDR movie and Time-Lapse movie modes and Movie creative filters like fantasy, old movie, memory, dramatic monochrome and miniature. Movie Servo AF custom settings allow users to speed up or slow down focusing speeds, enhancing creativity and artistic expression. For added flexibility, the Canon EOS 80D digital SLR camera also features a built-in headphone jack, a built-in stereo microphone with manual audio level adjustment, and an additional stereo microphone jack.

Glad I made the decision I did. If the flagship model is this bad I can't imagine what the lower end ones will be.... Sad though, I used to live and breathe Canon.
well, I'll wait to see more reviews and stuff. This is only one. But, if it's true, then I really wonder what's going on over there at Canon.
that's the problem with this "internet age", people are so quick to whine and bitch online especially with smartphones, whining and bitching are literally at their fingertips. And this goes for everything else. I just at people arguing about which car is faster at "The Ring"... first of all, it takes a lot of skills to drive like that and 99.9% of the car enthusiasts online do NOT have the skills, so what's the point of wasting all that effort in arguing/debating? With cameras these days, all (yes, IMO ALL) current cameras' abilities will exceed the skills of 99.9% of people whining and bitching. They should just stop wasting all that effort and either just go shoot or learn
I was reading that at lower ISOs the dynamic range on the D5 isn't as high, but the D5 maintains higher DR as the ISO goes up. Something other cameras lack.
12 stops of DR at Iso6400 would be pretty sweet if you ask me.
I just saw a review where the D750 had better low-light DR than the D5....
That doesn't surprise me at all. Not because the D5 is bad, I have no actual experience with a D5...nor will I.
But...as a D750 owner I can say that I am STILL continuously blown away at the DR of this camera. As a landscape shooter it really is a pleasure to work with the files from it.
*UPDATE*Here’s the reported “leak” of the EOS 5D Mark IV as claimed by Levi Siver. I’m not sure about this one, as I think we’re still a bit early for the “official” leaks that we saw with the EOS 5D Mark III launch.IA forum member pointed out the lens hood of the attached lens and that they couldn’t identify it. We do know the soon-to-be-announced EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III has a new lens hood, the EW-88D.
From the @levi_siver instagram account
*Original Post*I’m currently on a game drive in northern Uganda, but I figure is pass on what is claimed to be the first picture leak of the upcoming EOS 5D Mark IV. You can read about it at EOSHD.
We know the EOS 5D Mark IV will be announced in August, with delivery coming soon after.
I have a few things about the camera that I’ll be publishing soon.

at people arguing about which car is faster at "The Ring"... first of all, it takes a lot of skills to drive like that and 99.9% of the car enthusiasts online do NOT have the skills, so what's the point of wasting all that effort in arguing/debating? With cameras these days, all (yes, IMO ALL) current cameras' abilities will exceed the skills of 99.9% of people whining and bitching. They should just stop wasting all that effort and either just go shoot or learn
