EOS 800D + EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Kit
DSLR Camera Kit
Versatile and portable, the EOS 800D from Canon offers advanced imaging capabilities in an easy to use design. The 800D features a 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor and DIGIC 7 image processor for an expanded sensitivity range of ISO 100-51200 and a fast continuous shooting rate of 6 fps. The sensor's design also facilitates Dual Pixel CMOS AF, which uses phase-detection autofocus to ensure fast, accurate, and smooth performance for both video and stills shooting in live view.
Alternatively, when shooting stills using the optical viewfinder, a 45-point all cross-type phase-detect AF system ensures quick and accurate focusing in a variety of shooting scenarios. When shooting video, a Movie Servo AF mode offers smooth and natural focusing when changing from different subjects or different distances within the scene, as well as the ability to specify tracking sensitivity, AF speed, and Face Tracking priority. Subject tracking in movies is also heightened due to the Dual Pixel CMOS AF system's ability to recognise subjects and maintain focus when working within changing or cluttered scenery.
The 800D supports Full HD 1080p video recording at up to 60 fps in the MP4 format with IPB compression, or 30 fps in the MOV format with ALL-I compression when making in-camera time-lapse movies. An external microphone jack is incorporated into the body design for greater control over your recorded sound. Movie Electronic IS is also featured to minimise the appearance of camera shake across five axes for smoother, steadier recording when shooting handheld.
The camera also features an HDR Movie mode that can be used to achieve greater highlight and shadow detail when recording in high contrast scenarios. This mode captures two HD frames at different exposures, one normal and one underexposed, in short succession at up to 60 fps and then composites them during playback at 30 fps to create a movie with a longer-appearing dynamic range.
The camera is finished with a large 3.0" 1.04m-dot touchscreen LCD for easy menu navigation, playback control and live view monitoring, and its vari-angle design makes it easier to work from otherwise difficult high and low angles. Alternatively, an optical pentamirror viewfinder serves as a clear means for eye-level shooting. Built-in Wi-Fi with NFC is also available for quick and convenient pairing with a smartphone or tablet for wireless image sharing, and Bluetooth allows image sharing to and remote camera control from a mobile device.
Here the 800D is paired with the EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM from Canon, a versatile standard zoom lens designed for use on Canon APS-C size sensors. The 18-55mm focal length is equivalent to 28.8-88mm in 35mm terms.
The STM stepping motor supports Canon's EOS Movie Servo AF feature for smooth and near-silent continuous autofocusing when recording video. An Optical Image Stabiliser minimises the appearance of camera shake, and optimised lens coatings ensure superb colour reproductions whilst limiting ghosting and flare. A seven-blade aperture design produces pleasing background blur.
