Thanks to Neil40 because when I answered his post, I said I was happy with my EOS 700D ... and I am, but that got me thinking about an upgrade.
5D MK IV? No - apart from the expense, it complete overkill for what I can do and my abilities.
My current thinking is the 80D - it's affordable, had a tilt and swivel display which, for an arthritic person like me, means I can do some low level work without too much of the bending, it's got WiFi so it saves me using EyeFi cards, does 7fps which is useful - and lots of other things!
One question though - I assume the Wireless flash system won't trigger non-Canon speedlites? My Canon speedlites are too old to have wireless triggering and my newer speedlites are Yongnuo - I have a Yongnuo 603 trigger, but it would be nice not to have yet another item of equipment to carry around.
I also like the remote control from my iPhone.
So, how about a few EOS 80D owners opinions? Any other models in the Canon EOS range I should consider? As I shoot with my wife most of the time, I won't be moving from Canon because we share the lenses and accessories.
