This is the 80D
24.2MP
49 point focus*
wifi and nfc*
8fps with larger buffer with high speed uhs support.*
Upgraded viewfinder from the 70D guaranteed*, this may mean a larger viewfinder, more information in it, red dot light up points, or a user replaceable focus screen or all four.*
Flicker free and f8 autofocus*
Not sure is it will have dpaf as we know it today, have heard of something hexa focus but i don't know what that is
more custom features like the 7d2 has, something like the ability to change profiles maybe.
greater weather sealing more or less close to the 7D1*.
* are true features i know as fact.
Seems like your "source" was off regarding the 80D (minus the 24MP, wi-fi and NFC, which was a no brainer in 80D), which makes your claim about the 7D3 even more unreliable.
Over dinner and talk people can be wrong with exacts but keep in mind the true exact specs are not out yet, these are just more leaked info that came from a camera store that always leaks there info. through the conversation it was not like i was writing it all down point from point.
24.2 was on like i said from my guess of what the 7d3 testers have.
49 points i was told over dinner, maybe my source said it in error as they were rattling off the specs..could be nobody is perfect.
wifi and nfc, i knew this from my source before but when i found the canon page for linking the camera to the computer i asked if i could go public with what i have been told. My person told me to do it as Canon leaked it themselves anyway.
8fps with larger buffer, i was dead on about the buffer and you will see. My source still stands by 8fps but warns me Canon may be down rating it on purpose or it is a last minute software patch to down rate it if Canon was not happy with something else. This is common...super common as i have said before. also the uhs support is there.
Upgraded viewfinder from the 70D guaranteed i said, I stated i did not know what it meant though. So far we think it is a 100% viewfinder and that makes sense. I would love to know if the focus screen replacement, more information in it, red dot light up points are on it also. I doubt the red dot points are on it personally..
Flicker free and f8 autofocus, f8 autofocus is being said by other site at 27.
more custom features like the 7d2 has, something like the ability to change profiles maybe. We do know there are two custom modes on the dial so far but we don't know about custom profiles yet.
I was not sure if it was going to be dpaf, i heard lots of talk about something hexta or hecsa as i have no clue how to spell it nor do i have any clue what it is.
You don't have to believe me, i am not passing a basket around asking for money.
We all should know in a few days what the true specs are either way.
I also know for a fact the 7d3 testers are out and more than one has a 24.2 sensor inside, one was on the dinner table while we were talking about the 80D, SL2 and the Canon Crop road map for the upcoming year. And i was told not to say anything else about the tester besides the 24.2 because Canon may be able to pick out who was talking.
