Canon has announced the latest in its consumer range of DSLR cameras, the Canon 850D.

Sporting a 24.1-megapixel Dual Pixel CMOS APS-C sensor and Canon's proprietary DIGIC 8 image processing, the 850D is capable of 4K video recording in up to 25 frames-per-second, while 1080p recording can be done in 60fps.

The camera has a 7fps continuous still shooting rate, 45-point cross-type autofocus system and has 5-axis image stabilisation built-in. The AF also has eye-tracking, for more accurate snaps of people.
