Our Verdict
Canon has continued their success of producing quality DSLR camera bodies, in the form of the 850D. The 24.1MP APS-C sensor has plenty of resolution for large detailed prints and coupled with the DIGIC 8 processor, speed of operation has been increased all-round. A healthy 7 FPS of continuous shooting is easily achieved, with AF speed and accuracy being better than ever.
The body design follows Canon's usual design principles, with a logical dial and button layout. The multi-angle rear touchscreen is highly adjustable, which is a great advantage for setting just the right angle when previewing video footage. Touchscreen functionality also makes setting of AF points very simple, along with a straightforward method for accessing all the camera settings.
The autofocus system features 45 all cross-type AF points, with the addition of Dual Pixel CMOS AF for more accurate focus. AF points can be selected through the optical viewfinder in a variety of ways, with AF zones easily selectable and set for both still and moving subjects.
ISO sensitivity has a very usable range of 100-12800, adjustable in 1/3-stop or whole stop increments, with ever cleaner images at higher ISO levels. Coupled with the included 18-135mm kit lens, this camera package will fulfil most needs as a cost-effective DSLR solution for those entering photography as a more ambitious pursuit.
