I like the product very much, fully consistent with my expectations.

If we consider it as a continuation of the 550d (which, do not forget, is considered a very successful camera) with more features and, most importantly for me, more comfortable and controlled video shooting (it remains only to fasten normal autofocus, although I prefer manual autofocus), then the camera will not disappoint, What's more, the price is right now.
In general, here you need to decide whether these improvements compared to the 550d are worth an extra 10 thousand. For myself, I decided that they are worth it! And those who do not need video at all, or who still do not want to accept the fact of the merger of photos and video cameras, can safely go towards 50d (it is about the same in photo quality).

Pros

Since immediately before that I had experience with 550d and they are constantly compared (which is probably more correct than comparing with 50d, which is not suitable for video at all), I will judge on it: + swivel screen + faster photography + the ability to manually control the recording level of the audio signal + upper LCD screen (however, when shooting a video, it is not needed at all) + another, noticeably more capacious battery + the case is stronger not only in terms of specifications, but also in appearance (I don’t understand the complaints, to be honest) + wider viewfinder view (and it's noticeable) + second scroll wheel + electronic horizon level + built-in effects (there are very interesting ones) and a RAW processor + Due to the slightly larger size, it fits more comfortably in the hand + wireless flash control (which I'm not likely to use anytime soon) + liked the compact folding charger included

Cons

- the matrix is the same as in 550d, but I would like something new :) (to be fair, it should be said that it is good and the same in 7d) - the rear scroll wheel could be more responsive (although nothing criminal as some comrades describe here, quite convenient) - price, if you buy more expensive than 34-35 thousand

If you're buying your first DSLR and you're thinking of buying a full-frame DSLR to keep up with the trend, then the 60D is a great choice. You will understand when you start cleaning yourself))))
