The 8 0D builds on the 70D with 25% more pixels,

45 cross-type aF points, better ISO performance

and retains the ability to capture 7fps bursts. It

can record movies at double-speed 50/60fps for

slo-mo, and has nFC data transfer and Wi-Fi. Price

has gone up a lot recently though.^

vital shooting info, while a rear control wheel

makes dialing in exposure settings much quicker,

promoting it to Canon’s ‘enthusiast’ range. Super

image quality – even at high ISOs.^

Canon EoS 5DS (5DS R) PrIces: £2499/$3499 (£2699/$3699)

The world’s first 50Mp full-frame DSLR delivers

huge and amazingly detailed hi-res images. The

higher-cost 5DS R adds a ‘low-pass cancellation

filter’ for marginally sharper shots. as expected

with such a high-res sensor, max ISO and drive

rate are lower than with the 5D Mk IV.^
