One way to combat that would be to upgrade bodies. I think full frame cameras generally do better in low light, high ISO situations. Having something like IBIS (combined with lens IS) will also help as you can shoot with a lower ISO but longer shutter speed, allowing you to get away with slower lenses.

Ideally, my walk around lens in tough/ low light situations is a 50/1.4. Small, super fast and on a FF, it's the optimal range in many settings and if I didn't have the 24-105 and a 70-200, I would spring for Canon's 135/1.8.
Great pics, btw. Where some of those in China?
@mousquet: the 800D is still a pretty solid camera and the main differences between that and the 80D are some of the features; faster shutter speed, pentaprism, more durable/ water resistance body, etc. but more often than not, the XXXD uses the same sensor as the XXD bodies. I started off with a 300D (Digital Rebel here in the US) and that was a great camera...until I dropped it.
