The EOS 90D is the most exciting thing to happen in the Canon DSLR world for quite a while! Canon has really raised its game with a all-new 32.5-megapixel sensor with 25 per cent more resolution than any of its existing APS-C cameras. But while it’s the new sensor that’s grabbed most of the headlines, there’s much more to the EOS 90D than a few more megapixels. For a start, it looks like this is a fusion of the existing Canon EOS 80D and the high-speed EOS 7D Mk II: you get the higher resolution sensor in the same enthusiast-friendly body as the 80D, plus the 10fps continuous shooting speed of the 7D Mk II too.
Canon’s new camera brings a combination of speed and resolution we haven’t seen before. The ‘old’ EOS 80D was a terrific all-rounder, but the 90D successor brings high-speed continuous shooting into the mix to make what looks the ultimate do-it-all Canon DSLR.
But that’s not all, of course. For video fans, the EOS 90D takes an even bigger step forward. It captures 4K video, as we’d expect, so it’s already a step ahead of the 80D and 7D Mk II, but what’s important is that it’s ‘uncropped’ 4K video. It’s not the first Canon APS-C camera to capture 4K video, but previously this has meant a narrower angle of view that makes all your lenses ‘longer’ and less ‘wide’. With the EOS 90D’s uncropped 4K video, the angle of view of your lenses is unchanged.
Thanks to Canon’s Dual Pixel CMOS AF, the EOS 90D offers fast and smooth Live View autofocus for both stills and video, and just to complete the video features, there’s both an external mic socket and a headphone socket for monitoring audio levels while filming.
