Re: EOS 80D or EOS 800D - Opinions appreciated

Hi, I’m a little confused and hope others on this forum can give me their opinion. I currently have a Canon EOS 650D and I was looking a adding a Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 USM lens to it. Which I think would be a good portrait lens as well as great lens for taking wedding and event photos. I have lots of nieces and nephews who always seem to ask me to take the wedding photos.
After ready comments on various forums I’m starting to wonder if my 650D is a good enough camera to get they most out of the lens so thought I might upgrade, but to what? I like the EOS 80D and according to Canon’s website here in Australia the EOS 80D is suited for the enthusiast rather than being an entry level camera. The other camera I am looking at is the EOS 800D which is very similar in specifications to the 80D but is cheaper.
So my question is two fold, is my 650D capable of getting the most out of the 70-200 lens? If not than I need to upgrade and the question is, is the 80D a much better camera when compared to the 800D?
The more I read the more confused I become.
Opinions greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
Gary
800D and the 80D have the same sensor so the IQ will be the same and this 24MP sensor is a very good step up from your 650 and not just the MP ...has much more Dynamic Range ..but that will only help if you shoot raw or want to recover botched exposures or lift shadows the 80D AF will be a step up from the 800 ..but if you had no problems with AF and your 650 then the much improved AF in the 800 will be fine..there is also the 77D which is a 800D with a top LCD and 1 or2 other bit and bobs ...wither the 77d is an option will depend what price it is in your country...if its priced close to the 800 it may be a good buy if close to the 80D or in the middle then no

There is no argument for FF vs APS-c (or m43) with shallow DOF..as it's a law of physics and a very subjective personal thing if you want to make use of the shallow DOF only FF can offer
