Look at the 80D, now look at the 90D. 80D. 90D.
Now look at me.
The Canon EOS 80D was and still is a very popular DSLR camera and many people own one.
So, it’s not surprising that the number one question I get is...What’s the difference
between the 80D and the 90D?
There’s a huge difference.
The biggest difference is the sensor.
The 90D sports a 32.5MP sensor compared to the 80D’s 24.2MP sensor.
The new 32.5MP APS-C CMOS sensor in the EOS 90D is the same one found in the M6 mark ii
and it’s the highest resolution APS-C sensor on the market.
That means higher resolution photos, which means larger prints and the ability to admire
yourself on larger self portraits.
It also gives you the ability to enlarge your photo and crop them when editing on your computer.
And the processor?
Is it similar to that of the 80D?
Wrong my friend.
While the 80D has a Digic 6 image processor the 90D has a much faster Digic 8 image processor.
The same Digic 8 processor found on the EOS R, RP, M50, and SL3.
The Digic 8 processor allows the 90D to process higher quality images and video faster and
improves the autofocus.
The 90D has a Dual pixel AF system, and the same face and eye AF system found in EOS R
and RP.
This is a huge advantage as you can have a face in focus and it’ll lock on even if
the face moves, which will ensure that your photos stay nice and sharp.
The new sensor also allows for an ISO range expandable up to 51,200 compared to 25,600
on the 80D, which allows it to perform better under low light situations.
Another difference between the 80D and 90D is the shutter speed.
The 90D has a new electronic shutter with speeds up to 1/16000 of a second, twice the
shutter speed of the 80D.
You can now shoot 10 fps with continuous AF via OVF and 7 fps in live view, compared to
7fps on 80D.
Which comes in handy when it comes to shooting fast moving subjects like myself.
Now does the 90D shoot 4K?
Yes.
It can shoot 4k up to 30 frames per second and full HD up to 120 frames per second.
This is a huge step up from the 80D as the 80D can’t shoot 4K and can only shoot 1080p
up to 60 frames per second.
Not only can the 90D shoot 4k video but it also features clean hdmi out for connecting
external monitors and recorders, which allows you to record longer uncompressed 4k footage.
Can the 90D shoot 4k at 24 frames per second?
Well it couldn’t at first, but the great thing about modern technology is that just
about anything can be updated.
Canon rolled out a firmware update that now allows the 90D to shoot 4K at 24p with a simple
file download and install that you can do in just a few minutes.
If you are looking to find out on how to do this, you can check out our video in the description box below.
Not being able to should 4K at 24 frames per second got a lot of backlash from videographers
because 24 frames per second achieves a very cinematic look to your footage, so thankfully
Canon listened to the people and now you have that option with the firmware update.
Now it’s time for some rapid-fire questions and answers.
How's the build quality and is it waterproof?
It’s not waterproof, but it’s weather-resistant and it's made from aluminum alloy and glass fiber
with polycarbonate resin and it feels really solid.
The grip also feels extremely economic and it feels good in the hand.
What battery does it take and how long does it take to charge it?
The 90D uses the same LP-E6 N battery that the 80D uses and takes about 2 hours to charge.
How long does the battery last?
On a fully charged battery you’ll get about 1300 shots on the 90D compared to 960 on 80D.
Does it have a built-in flash?
Yes.
Does it have a mic input?
Yes, it does.
Does it have a headphone jack to monitor audio?
Yes, it does.
Time-lapse videos?
Yes.
What about slow motion?
slow motion?
Yes.
Full HD at 120p allows you to slow down footage up to 4x regular speed with a slight crop.
Does it have in-body image stabilization for photos?
Unfortunately, it doesn’t, but most lenses from Canon offer image stabilization so it’s not really an issue.
What kind of memory card does it take and does the 90D support UHS-II SD cards.
It has one SD card slot and it fully supports UHS-II SD cards.
Does it have WIFI and bluetooth connectivity?
Yes and with the bluetooth and wifi capability you can control your camera’s settings and
share photos with your phone or computer through the free Canon Camera Connect App.
It also enables images to be printed without a cable connected to your camera.
