Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Canon EOS 80D, attach a compatible Canon EF or EF-S lens by aligning the white or red mounting index, then insert a charged LP-E6N battery into the base compartment. Format your SD memory card in the camera menu before your first shoot to ensure file stability.

Compatibility is extensive, as the camera supports the vast library of Canon EF lenses. When not in use, store the camera in a cool, dry place with the body cap attached to prevent dust from entering the mirror box. Use a soft, dry lens cloth to clean the exterior and the rear LCD screen, and avoid touching the sensor or the mirror mechanism directly to prevent damage.
