The Canon EOS 77D DSLR is an intermediate link between interchangeable lens cameras for beginners in the world of photography and serious working or creative tools. Directly in the model range of the Japanese manufacturer, the DSLR occupies a position between the simpleton Canon EOS 800D and the Canon EOS 80D camera for enthusiasts.
Best of all
From entry-level cameras, the specimen in question borrowed compact dimensions, ease of use and automatic functions. And from the family of advanced DSLRs, the model got advanced ergonomics, in particular, an additional monochrome information display on the upper edge (allows you to change parameters without being distracted by the main screen), as well as a second scroll wheel for easy adjustment of shutter speed and aperture.
Hocus pocus — autofocus
The camera is based on a 24.2 MP image sensor with support for Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology. She is responsible for fast and accurate focus in LiveView mode and when shooting video. In the latter case, the technology also helps to achieve a “cine-like” effect of smooth focus shifting. When sighting through the optical viewfinder, the subject is reliably caught and held by 45 phase-type focus points.
creative growth
Controls borrowed from a troop of pros, combined with a swivel touch display, make the DSLR a great option for learning and tackling serious creative tasks. With the camera, there is room to grow further, for which in the future you will need to replace the 18-55 mm whale lens with something more versatile or fast. About five options for replacing standard optics are described in the article “Replacing the “whale”: 5 zoom lenses for Canon cropped SLR cameras”.
