Why do you ask Chris?Anyone using a 3rd party battery grip that wants to share their thoughts on the performance of it with the 80d?
Are you considering a purchase?

you can get a brand new 80D for £619 from HDEW with a 3 year warranty, loads on here have used them including me...Mazdaman. I’m leaning more towards the 80d to be fair and your comments are greatfully recieved. Also saves me a bit of cash to grab additional batteries and the like. A little hesitant to but from e global for the grey imports but was considering mbp potentially. But there’s nothing like using your brand new equipment is there
Andy, TBH if i wanted a FF i would go 5DIII everyday over the 6DII, it seems from what i have seen the 6DII is basically an 80D with a FF sensor, in your position i would get the 80D.currently, I own a 750D but finding the number of AF points a little annoying as it only has 19 and its struggling a little in low light. Have invested in a few lenses have the 18-55, 10-18mm 50mm prime and a tamron 70-200 f2.8. Really thinking about changing the body and replacing the 18-55mm kit lens and was considering the 80d. OR do I bite the bullet and go for 6D ii meaning i need to change more lenses. Also iv'e noticed a few rumors about 90d starting to appear as launced in early 2019. worth waiting for or?
been struggling with this dilemma for a few weeks now and thought it worth a post on the forum.
any recommendations for a replacement to the 18-55mm?
Thanks in advance for your help
Andy
Thanks for the recommendation re the 5diii worth investigating. Not thought about an extender good call. And I only use to 18-55 when I’m being lazy. To be fair I keep forgetting about the nifty fifty and using my feet you get much better shots that way and forces you to move about.Andy, TBH if i wanted a FF i would go 5DIII everyday over the 6DII, it seems from what i have seen the 6DII is basically an 80D with a FF sensor, in your position i would get the 80D.
As you have a nifty 50 and a super wide angle zoom do you really need an 18-55? how about a 1.4x extender III, it would go great with the 70-200.
What do you actually use the 18-55 for?
Sorry for being thick what’s HDEW? I live in Chester, Cheshire so a bit of a trek to pick up. Do they come with (UK) charger and manual ?you can get a brand new 80D for £619 from HDEW with a 3 year warranty, loads on here have used them including me...
don't know where you are based but if you are near them (Surrey) you can go and pick it up.
yup UK charger, manual and all the bits that come with it as if you bought it from Jessops.Sorry for being thick what’s HDEW? I live in Chester, Cheshire so a bit of a trek to pick up. Do they come with (UK) charger and manual ?
Looks like I’ll be getting one from there then. Thanks for the heads up. Hope it’s still in stock after crimbo
Awsome thanks for the advice.I got my 80D from HDEW last year, had absolutely no problems with it so far and I've put over 30,000 shots through it now.
All from HDEW?Got my 80D from HDEW too and it was seamless and it’s a great camera too
I bought a used 17-55 f2.8, used 70-200 f4 and a budget 10-18 (all canon) and then added a sigma 150-600 c and they are all excellent lenses
One day I might “upgrade” but that is a cracking full range set up done on the “relative” cheap

Get the canon 17-55 f2.8 lens it's great.

Well, I crumbled and have no willpower and just placed an order at HDEW for the 80D and a spare battery. hope I don't regret it.
I got mine from HDEW. Great service, came in a kit box but the transaction was flawless.
