Review on International Version Canon EOS 60D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit by Chasmod Ray ᠌

I'll write briefly. Like many, I jumped to 60 from 400. The difference is, of course, obvious. As the character of one movie said: weight is good! weight is reliable! ) The weight is just such that the camera would sit perfectly in the hand and at the same time it would not be a shame to carry the camera with you every day) Focusing is fast and in most cases accurate (of course, it also depends on the lens), there are no problems with side points on fast lenses. iso working up to 1600-3200 + offset by resolution. On talk about colors and shades scored. I realized that all manufacturers have different parameters. I shoot in raw and don't worry. The swivel screen is a convenient thing not only for video, but also, for example, for shooting from a tripod in a cramped room) The video mode is good both in terms of control and in terms of results. Everyone scolds the delete button, but everything is fine with it, but the fact that the "start" of the camera is completely on the left hand is annoying. With your left hand, you need to click an inconvenient switch, open the screen, remove the lens cap, and sometimes flip the mode by holding the lock. In general, a mechanically cold start is very long. Plus, the disk does not make a full turn, and in order to get to the video, for example, from M and back, you need to turn it long and hard, bypassing unnecessary automatic modes. BUT. A big plus of canon and, in particular, 60ki is the existence of magic latern hacker firmware. For example, you can assign the video mode to position C, which makes life very easy. This firmware gives a lot of pluses. More details - in the search. Total: 60 is an excellent compromise between completely amateur canons with two zeros and, often not justified, seven. The next step is full frame only) I have nothing against Nikon and Sony, Canon just fell into my hands) If you plan to live with a whale for a long time, then it’s better to take a 600 and a better lens. A heavy and large soap dish is completely useless) What would 60ka show itself is always good glass, otherwise it makes no sense.
