Review on Canon EOS 60D: 18MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera Body - Your Next Photography Companion by Ha Joon ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

Chose between 550D, 7D, 60D. Of course, I was only interested in Canon. We all know that Samsung is a good TV, Sony is a good game console, Panasonic and so on are not cameras. Canon or Nikon. Nikon has models with a similar image quality, with a similar cost. But I was set to Canon from the very beginning. And Nikon held for comparison. He did not sit in his hands for more than 10 minutes, he realized that this was not mine. held the D7000. Compared 7D, 550D, 60D. (mainly the difference in price and management, other parameters are similar) When I picked up the 60D, I fell in love completely. For a perfect set, I advise everyone to buy a Body with a Canon 50mm / f / 1.4 / USM fast lens (or Canon 50mm / 1.8 - if there is not enough money). And a Canon 17-40mm wide-angle/fixed f/4 aperture, ultrasonic motor (USM), and of course the great L series. Now you can shoot anything (except birds on wires) - but personally I don’t do such things. Therefore, I did not take the Zoom lens. Never buy kit with KiT lenses. Their real price corresponds to their capabilities (500r), and in stores for such optics you will get a lot of money. (7000, etc.) I wish you all the right decisions.

Pros
  • Build quality, weight (immodest mass of the camera, eliminates its shaking during shooting), control (two wheels, on top and under the thumb, for instant adjustment of shutter speed and aperture), design, photo quality (550D, 7D) similar, swivel display ( very convenient in many cases), HD video, resolution and number of screen colors, very high battery capacity, second display with settings, very comfortable in the hand. Not magnesium alloy, but modern plastic - in my opinion the right decision.
Cons
  • lack of a built-in stabilizer, adjustment functions. (I personally did not lose anything from their absence)

Has some pros Everything is very good for this price range! I've been using it for almost 7 years now and can't find a replacement yet! Some cons: Frame rate is a bit slow. I shoot birds and planes are sometimes not enough!
