Coming from the film era, still good memories of the EOS 1n, etc., I'm very pleased with digital, but the dslrs I've used up till now had always a plastic kind of fragile feeling, or they were far too heavy, being Nikon or Canon the feeling was more or less the same, in this respect.
Canon EOS 60D Review
At first blush, you'd think the EOS 60D would be more capable than the older EOS 50D. That's only partially true. It's got more pixels and a more sophisticated metering engine, but it lacks the metal body and has a lower maximum continuous shooting speed.- Excellent balance
- great choice of lenses
- superb video capabilities
- Only nine focus points
- obtuse UI
Great for semi-pros Nice feel Easy to use Great Images (even better with lots of practise) Great choice of lens Bad Points: Dial and D pad are too close
- Wonderful first camera for those with greater needs than the 500/550/600Ds or the 1000D
Canon EOS 60D: The Next Generation Takes A Turn In The Road
The generation of Canon EOS digital SLRs beginning with the 10D have been evolutionary, with each camera adding resolution and new features. The 60D continues in that vein but also takes a slightly different tack, adding some features from Canon's own PowerShot series, bringing in functionality like...
Canon EOS 60D
Both cameras include a few preset Scene modes, although not as many as the Nikon, to help you quickly get shots like Landscape and Portrait. Both also allow you to save your own favorite settings under three user modes; the Nikon allows two.- Great image quality
- Swiveling LCD screen
- Long battery life
- Slow autofocus on LCD screen
- none in movie mode
- Plastic body
- Lacks features found on Nikon D7000
Alot of camera for the bucks.
I will use the camera mostly for stills of people, family, nature and landscapess. I like the 18mp so I can print large photos for displatand exibits. Don't kniow any thing that would be a negative about the camera.- Easy To Use
- Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus
- Fast Shutter Speed
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- High ISO Performance
- Large Clear LCD
- Quiet
- Tilt /Swivel LCD
- None
Definitely worth the upgrade from 30D
So far so good! This was a recent upgrade from the 30D I have used for almost 5 years. The most practical feature I have enjoyed on this model over the 30D is the AUTO ISO feature when using AV/TV modes. The build construction and feel in my hand is not as good as my old 30D.- Easy To Use
- Good Image Quality
- High ISO Performance
- Crop Sensor
- Plastic body
- Shutter sound
great mid range camera
This is the second time I purchase this camera, my previous one were stolen. Since I don't have budget to upgrade to full frame. I choose to purchase 60D again. It's a wonderful mid-range camera with a lot of great things. I use it for both photo and a lot of video.- Easy To Use
- Fast Shutter Speed
- Good Image Quality
- High ISO Performance
- Hi res LCD screen
- Large Clear LCD
- Tilt /Swivel LCD
- Lack of certain button
- Plastic body
- Too many useless mode
Great Camera, very happy
Very happy with my purchase of the 60D, a cracking camera with all of the features I need as an inexperienced photographer.The software provided with the camera (and, I think, all Canons, certainly all Canon SLRs) is very good, especially considering that the equivalent Nikon costs a chunk more- Durable
- Great Features
- Great Picture Quality
- Expensive
Half the price of a 5D
Practically as good as the 5D unless you are a proffessional photographer wanting images with a $2500 lense, this is an AWSOME camera and does everything a 5D or 7D does :-)
