    Props to you and JG Harding for recognising a dark horse of a camera.

    Comon, he doesnt hate Canon. He loves the 1DC, 5Dmkii/iii and Im sure if the c300ii was a bit more affordable he would be on it.

    @CMB the T2i was around for a long time and it had its day, a lot of great stuff shot on it, in the same way there were great Pixar animations developed on very old 90's workstations.
    This does not excuse Canon in any way.
    If Apple for example had neglected the quality of their stills on iPhones since 2009 as Canon have done with video on their APS-C DSLRs, it would be seen as totally strange behaviour, really bizarre and unacceptable to all iPhone users interested in photography.
    The only reason content producers and YouTuber's still care about the 80D is that a lot of people don't care about perfection or the details. They just want to grab a brand they trust and make content as quickly and as easily as possible with the lenses they already have.
    The other companies have put in a less than solid showing to be honest, in fighting back against Canon and Nikon. Flakey and disjointed. Panasonic only have the GH line, which doesn't have a broad appeal to the masses due to the lenses being massively overpriced, complexity of the spec, odd sensor crop vs the rest of the market and less than stella ISO 1600-6400 performance indoors. Meanwhile Sony have too many models, very confusing, reliability issues on top of that like overheating, over complex specifications and menus, poor usability and again incredibly expensive lenses. Canon have had it easy.
    The people who will buy a 80D probably see 4K as slowing them down in the edit, when a lot of the material is quite time critical. I can't see them lusting after an A7S II any time soon.

    When looking at the leaf and lime test, it's important to realise how the reach of the lens compensates for the lack of resolving power of the camera.
    Wider angles and infinity focus shots are an appropriate test of resolution. Lime trees on end of a 50mm or 85mm with shallow DOF? Not so much.
    As for colour it is true Canon have this better sorted than Sony but there's no way that is saving the 80D as a filmic choice.
    The shot Ben posted demonstrating A6300 colour has hardly any colour in it, it's a horribly overcast grey day, grey street, grey building and white van!! Come on people, common sense should start prevailing.
    There are no convincing tests or samples so far that show the strengths and weaknesses or either camera.
    When Canon get the video image right, they really do get it right. The 80D is not one of those cameras.
    The 1D C, C100 II, C300 II, XC10 all have a beautiful look to their images. It's no coincidence they are all Cinema EOS cameras.
    Canon's strategy quite clear I think!

    Here's a 70D vs 80D comparison.  To me, the 80D looks a bit more detailed; not as detailed as a BMPCC...but then again this is one video.
     
     
    Also, Kendy Ty shoots on a T2i with a Sigma 30mm f/1.4 exclusively.  What Kendy produces is truly gorgeous.
