Here we are comparing two cameras with different body types: Nikon Z5, which was introduced in July 2020 is a Advanced Mirrorless camera with a 24.0MP Full frame sensor whereas Canon 80D, which was introduced in February 2016 is a Advanced DSLR camera with a 24.0MP APS-C sensor. As you can see, 80D is 4 years older than Z5. Let's see if this age difference between two cameras makes a big difference.
Despite some fundamental differences of these two body types, Mirrorless cameras are becoming serious alternatives to DSLR cameras thanks to their size/weight advantages and recent improvements in their focus speeds , which makes this comparison even more interesting.
Here is a brief look at the main features of the Nikon Z5 and Canon 80D before getting into our more detailed comparison.
Let's read on in the following sections in order to better understand in detail how the Nikon Z5 and Canon 80D compare and hopefully end up with enough arguments to decide which one is better for you.
