The 60D is probably best understood as a 'super Rebel.' It's a more comfortable, more flexible, and faster-to-use version of Canon's justly popular entry-level DSLRs. The twin dial controls, better grip, and bigger viewfinder will delight stills shooters while the articulated screen and movie...

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

Canon EOS 60D Review
The successor to the EOS 50D brings higher resolution, a handy swiveling LCD, and surprising performance even at high ISO speeds.
Pros:
- Excellent color accuracy
- You can actually shoot at 12,800 ISO
- Vari-angle LCD a real plus
- Superior battery life
Cons:
- Still not a fan of DSLR HD video
- focusing is a hassle, "Warm" indoor images with Auto White Balance, Puzzling Multi-control dial

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

Canon EOS 60D
Replacing the popular Canon EOS 50D , Canon's latest 60D has a whole lot to live up to. Reviving the vari-angle screen for DSLRs of this level seems to be a significant focus point, not least that none of the competition at this price-point offer such a feature.
Pros:
- Image quality
- vari-angle LCD
Cons:
- Limited updates over 50D
- not a tough build
