This is a very good camera, if you are a mid-level photographer. The features are a definite win over the similar Nikon camera. However, the Nikon has the metal composite, weather-proof construction that this Canon lacks. Its performance, especially when shooting on a tripod, is exceptional.

Got this for Christmas! My husband reseached this camera. I really wanted the 7D but the difference between the two was not significant...only the price. Takes very clear pictures.

The Canon EOS 60D is an excellent enthusiast-level camera that offers a variety of new features over its predecessor and excellent image and video quality.

Great photo and video quality; Articulating display; Microphone input

No continous autofocus for video; Awkward mode dial lock placement; Display gets easily washed out in sunlight

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 love cannon with excellent 3:2, 3 inch, 1.04 million dot screen. The T4i is supposedly better with video. They have the same sensor so the picture quality is going to be great. I was on the fence between the 60d and the T4i.

same sensor so the picture quality is going to be great

It's not as light as I expected

Placed order and the following morning received a phone call confirming this order. I recieved my order withing 7 days. Fantastic.

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.

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.

We've come to expect follow-on cameras to generally out-do the camera they're replacing features-wise, and the 60D follows suit in most cases compared to the 50D. Sensor resolution is up and an HD video capability exists where none did before.

Swiveling monitor; Excellent image quality; Great high ISO performance

Slow AF in video mode; Awkward mode dial; No continuous video AF

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.
