Canon EOS 77D

The Canon EOS 77D is a new member of the Canon XXD family. Previously we have seen cameras like the EOS 70D and 80D surprised us with their amazing performances. The segment has been favoured by quite a many number of photographers, especially the intermediate users and the serious hobbyists and amateurs. The main reason for the segment to be so popular is the ability to get professional control while taking images and outright performance by the sensor which delivers very great performance in low light and general situations. The other factors being a vari-angle LCD, another great addition which made the 70D and the 80D so desirable, makes its way into the EOS 77D as well. We tested the camera this month, and here is how it performed.

The Canon EOS 77D looks like any other entry level DSLR but only until you have a closer look at it. It’s the regular Canon design but there are changes under the body which makes all the difference. The ergonomics is very similar to the 70D and the 80D with minor changes in button layout. The grip is deep and good for small hands but I didn’t feel so great holding it. Someone with big hands might find the body smaller, but for most people this camera is a perfect sized one. It’s light, and when coupled with a kit lens like the 18-55mm or 18-135mm, the weight is not too much and can be handled easily without feeling too heavy to carry it around. The top LCD plate clearly sets the difference between the entry-level cameras and the intermediate ones.
