Q: QuestionWhat lenses do you recommend for a starter package?

Asked 8 years ago by Nancy.

• A:Answer I have a canon 60D for the last 6 years. It is the first in the 60D/70D/80D family. It came with the CANON 18-135 IS ZOOM LENS - which is a good all around lens - sharp with good range. After a couple years I wanted a bit more range and bought a TAMRON 18-270 DII VC ZOOM LENS - a bit heavier and stiffer to work - but incredible range - and sharp pictures. Great image stabilization. Fantastic for Air Shows and distant objects - it has become my lens of choice for the camera. It is the top rated zoom on the market - costs $350 - $425 on the internet. It is better and cheaper than the CANON 18-200 IS ZOOM LENS. The TAMRON 16-300 VC ZOOM LENS - may be better for about $600. Avoid any lens with a range that starts at 28 mm - such as 28 -80 mm or 28-135 mm. The wide end will not be wide enough in a lot of situations. Skip the two lens kits 18-55mm and 55-250 mm with the camera, unless you want to carry two lenses and be swapping them out constantly - instead of cranking the zoom and shooting the picture. Changing lenses in wet or dusty weather is not good for either lens or camera. The 18-55mm lens will be too limiting in range. Always get a lens with image stabilization. IS for CANON, VC for TAMRON. Image stabilization is an absolute must for sharp pictures with any telephoto lens. The canon 80D is a terrific camera - but only as good as the lens you put on it.

Q: QuestionCan you set focus to spot when in sports mode

Asked 9 years ago by M.

• A:Answer I just purchased the 80D about a month ago. I was using a 50D previously. I used center point on the 50D for my kids soccer. With the 80D I actually went to a center grouping of 9 focus point and have been very happy with the results. (More Keepers, less missed focus shots) I don't know for sure if you can select the center point in sport mode I usually shoot in AV TV or M. You can definitely select center point in those others Use sport mode and take a photo, review that photo and use av, tv or M with the same settings. I usually will shoot soccer with the following in AV (80D 70-200mm+1.4x teleconverter) Iso 400, Aperture 4.0 ( the camera will vary shutter speed to properly expose) Try to keep shutter speed at least 1/500 bump iso up if you need more shutter speed Good Luck and Happy Shooting

Q: QuestionThe specs on the Canon EOS 80D camera say "Integrated GPS: Adaptable." What exactly does that mean? Is there an accessory for this function, because I don't see any other reference to GPS, even from Canon's website. Thanks.

Asked 9 years ago by rcpfaff.

• A:Answer It is not included but you can purchase an external GPS or hook up your phone through the Cannon Connect app; the camera can get date/time and GPS from your phone!

Q: Questionis it really worth the 300$ more than the 70d I only do portraits so I don't really need the extra fps or focus

Asked 8 years ago by jake.

• A:Answer Only you can decide that. The 80D is considered a prosumer camera and is supposedly weather sealed. Important to me since most of my shoots are outdoors in the mountains and streams
