Auto focus and ISO performance make it well worth moving up. I had an OG 7D, and its worth the upgrade especially considering the OG is starting to show its age.

Yea that new sensor is pretty good

The one in the 80D is better though

Gotta get my money up for those type of lenses, most I ever spent on a lens is 450

What lenses did you have before?

I have Canon lenses for my Sony A7II... 17-40L, Tamron 24-70 2.8, Tamron 70-300 and the Canon 40 2.8

I would probably start with the 24-70 and the 40.... good do it all glass. That 17-40 gets so wide tho . Im actually waiting to see if they drop the 6D2 next year... the Sony is cool but it has some quirks I don't like

@Reinscarf can you guess where this photo was taken? Hint Canada Lolol What the name of this mountain is called?

Mt Robson

What else third party lenses go with canon?

@pickles you should check out 3rd party lenses too. The Sigma 17-50 2.8 is excellent and like 1/2 the price of the Canon. Tokina makes a 16-50 which goes a little wider.

Sigma and Tamron make the best ones for the money IMO

It really depends on what you want to shoot though

I have a 70D and while I've heard good things about the 80D, I don't know that's it's worth investing in. Especially if I make the switch to Sony!

I would not, 70D is still a great camera.

Most people either start off with something used, or an inexpensive new DSLR. Just about all the camera companies great camera bodies (Canon, Nikon, Sony, etc.) to choose from, only difference will be full frame or crop sensor. I started with Canon Digital Rebel and have stayed with Canon ever since. From them you can jump into the T-series. Scenery and skylines,there is quite a few lenses you can get, a 10-50mm, 18-55mm, 24-105mm, sports you would want something further like a 70-200mm.

What are the budgets you two are working with?
