Currently have an EOS 400d which we bought 10 year ago and while it's been a decent camera, I think it's time to move on to something more up to date to include wi-fi and GPS tagging etc.

The 70d appears to be the obvious replacement (we also looked at the 7d Mark II, but the extra cost doesn't appear to be justified for the sort of usage we'd be making), but I wonder whether we should wait for the 80d, given that the replacement must be due relatively soon?

Cheers

Hmm - not heard anything much about an 80D and I suspect it would be largely the same as a 70D so if I was you I would go for it smile
Thanks - will also be purchasing a GoPro, any ideas if the '4' is soon to be superseded?!
