the camera is amazing specially at this price, the lens included is basic lens, not very fast one but good for start. Only con is the documentation and manuals, they all were in Japanese so I had to download pdf's from website.

On Off Switch Awkward

I had been shopping around for a replacement camera for my old Canon Rebel when I came across the President's Day Sale on Overstock. This camera package was one of the features that was on sale, and I just couldn't beat the value.

I bought one of these two years ago, and all I can say is that it is a loyal and reliable beast. I've made it work way too hard and it is still going strong. I've subjected it to rain, gravity, heat, and general abuse and it still looks and acts like it did when I got it.

This is a very well made Canon body and is user friendly. Unit focuses fast,has a large and bright viewfinder. Settings and menues are easy to fiind and use. Body feels comfortable in your hands and balances well with all lenses (lenses not having a tripod collar).

I was looking for a good DSLR camera at an affordable price and then one of my friend suggested me this. Going through the features it offered I was completely in love with it and bought it almost instantly. It has basically everything I was looking for in my DSLR camera.

So far I like this camera- I am new to the type of camera so I won't have the best review for the people looking for details.[...]. The deal itself is nice. I love the backpack and I like the it came with dvd's and books on how to use it.

The Canon EOS 60D is the perfect entry level Digital-SLR (Single-lens reflex) camera that offers both the home and amateur photographer the capabilities needed to produce some amazing shots.

Canon's latest enthusiast digital SLR draws from many different cameras in Canon's lineup, from the Canon G12, with its swivel screen, to the 5D Mark II, with its fairly advanced video functionality. Though the controls have changed a bit, I still found the Canon 60D very familiar.

Excellent 18-megapixel sensor with superb detail; Very good high ISO performance; especially for 18-megapixel subframe sensor; 3.0-inch; 1,040K-dot Vari-angle LCD is very useful for video and Live View; Quick Menu system; The usual Canon enhancements: HTP; ALO; Lens Peripheral Illumination; Sharp...

Body probably not as rugged as mag-alloy 50D, AF assist only works when flash is up, though flash can be forced off, Auto-exposure not reliable in very low light, No in-camera image stabilization (lens based, 18-135mm kit lens has noticeable chromatic aberration and geometric distortion; also...

I have been using this camera with 18-135 lens for almost 3 years now. It gives excellent image quality. Though the build is plastic it has been very sturdy. Having been taking great pictures with this camera.
