Canon EOS 60D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera
The Canon EOS 60D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera is a must-have for photography enthusiasts and family-home snappers alike.
With its large sized LCD and 18 megapixel resolution, the Canon has all the attributes to make it a worthwhile investment for the beginner user, while seasoned photographers will appreciate immensely the rotating and swivelling monitor, the high ISO 100-6400 performance and the quick control screen, letting you easily access your most often-used features of the camera.
The great image quality and speed of stabilisation stems from the rapid and accurate auto-focus, while the EOS 60D also comes with a significant upgrade on the 50D with the integration of 1080p full HD video capture. Along with the video function itself, the Canon EOS 60D also benefits from one-cable connection to any HDTV with an HDMI output, manual exposure control and different recording resolutions, allowing you to choose how long you want your 4GB MOV videos to last for.
There are plenty of in-camera creative and editing options, from giving your photos a soft focus or black and white effect, to adjusting the brightness, white balance, noise reduction and chromatic aberrations corrections. Storage of photos and videos on the 60D is easy, with a full range of SD, SDHC and SDXC cards compatible and suitable for use, while you can also save your recordings to external hard drives.
The 18MP DSLR allows you to shoot those larger prints you’ve been after, or else focus on detail with extra sharp imaging and true to life colours in your snaps, while Canon’s DIGIC4 Image Processor will also give you rapid shoot speeds. The 60D is great for shooting in low light levels, and the expandable ISO to 12800 ensures you won’t miss a single shot, even where flash photography is not allowed.
In short, the Canon EOS 60D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera has everything you could probably think of to include on a great camera for taking photos and videos in any situation, and everything you could possibly use to make your greatest snaps even better. Full compatibility with both Mac and PC, along with a whole host of bundled software, means that the 60D really is for everyone who wants to take great pictures.

Great camera! I use it as a back up to my 5d MKII
Great body but horrible kit lens. If you can get the body and save up for a better lens I recommend that.
I bought the 18-200 package and the lens is very prone to chromatic aberration, lens creep and lacks sharpness. Talk about a kick in the junk. Save up for over a year to buy the camera and the lens disappoints.
Really wish I had just bought the body and then a better lens.
Camera perfoms well, good detail and exposure control.
