The Canon EOS 60D is great for anyone looking for a mid-range camera. It isn't as powerful as the high-end EOS 7D but the 60D shoots great pictures even at ISO levels as high as 1,600. Autofocus in generally fast although it is a tad slower in Live View mode.
Pros:
- : Good picture quality
- decent ISO performance
- HD video recording
- articulated LCD screen
Cons:
- : Lacks dedicated video recording button
- slow autofocus speed in Live View mode
- slow burst shooting mode

[REVIEW-CANON EOS 60D]
This 18 megapixel DSLR is the latest iteration in the Canon 10/20/30/40/50D range of mid-priced cameras. The new feature that is immediately obvious is the swivelling high resolution LCD screen.
Pros:
- This is such a beautifully evolved camera series that there is not much to say other than "it's just like the 50D only better." Low light performance is brilliant
- Auto white balance is not wonderful but selecting a setting appropriate to the light source fixes that.
Cons:
- Live view is still clunky and auto-focus in movie mode is still frustrating
- The instruction book warns "continuous focus on a moving subject is not possible.

The Canon EOS 60D is an excellent mid-range camera, sitting in between the Canon EOS 550D and the EOS 7D. If you're looking to step up from an entry-level DSLR, it's well worth a look.
Pros:
- The Canon EOS 60D delivers absolutely stunning quality when it comes to photographs
- and it's good enough to please both amateurs and semi-professionals alike
- Along with delivering nearly 18 megapixels
- the EOS 60D features HD video recording
- letting you create your own movies on the go.
Cons:
- Where the Canon EOS 50D – the 60D's ancestor – features a magnesium casing, the EOS 60D is constructed from plastic
- It's still tough enough for daily use, but it's a shame that quality has been cut slightly

- vari-angle LCD
Cons:
- Limited updates over 50D
