Squares R4C5 and R5C5 in column 5 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <26>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R1C5 - removing <6> from <6789> leaving <789>

R2C5 - removing <6> from <4678> leaving <478>

R9C5 - removing <6> from <689> leaving <89>

Squares R2C7 and R3C7 in column 7 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <48>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R5C7 - removing <8> from <1278> leaving <127>

R7C7 - removing <8> from <678> leaving <67>
