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 Ada Kotarska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very pleased with this purchase, will recommend it to everyone!

I debated between the Canon 60D and the Nikon 7000 before settling on the latter. All the reviews, including the one on the reliable source, pointed to the Nikon 7000 as the best option. I was planning to buy one of these cameras, in fact. A friend of mine who works in the sales section of an electronics store let me test out both cameras without interruption because they utilize the same memory card. A "but" then entered the picture. 1. The Nikon felt like it was going to fall out of his hand, whereas the Canon fit snugly in his palm; 2. Both cameras produced nearly identical results for BB; Nikon was somewhat better, but in a challenging circumstance, adjustments will need to be made to both alternatives. In terms of noise, the Nikon 7000 produces a less-than-pleasant image compared to the Canon 60D until ISO 2500, after which the Nikon shows a slightly better result (but I repeat and, most importantly, they are simple to get rid of during processing when shooting in RAW on a Canon camera between ISO 3200 and 6400; this renders Nikon's advantage null and void). Nikon is bigger and heavier, but the grip handle is shorter, forcing his fingers to drag over the body. 5. Canon was able to quickly and accurately focus with a 50mm f/1.8 lens, whereas Nikon failed to capture a single photograph with sharpness even approaching that of Canon's half-point on the whale.

Pros
  • Small and lightweight (I know that heavier cameras are more prone to blur, but I still consider a light camera to be an advantage), with a fast autofocus, large battery, swivel display, excellent LCD resolution (you can really appreciate the quality of the photo that was taken), affordable price, rapid fire, and usable ISO up to 3200. (in my opinion), None of my lenses, even the Soviet ones I have, have exhibited front-back focus, and neither do the Canon accessories nor their analog counterparts.
Cons
  • 1. launching when the LCD screen is tilted to the side; Two, the mirror is generating a deafening clapping noise; three, the BB doesn't work properly with incandescent light bulbs. Turning it on and off is a hassle, and the memory card's lid creaks when you remove it. 6. Using Life View's slower focus speed
