I definitely recommend buying, I didn't notice any disadvantages.

Despite the fact that this is my first SLR camera, I tried to objectively evaluate the advantages and disadvantages. In the end, I can say that this is a great camera. With an 18-135 is lens, you can save up to 5 thousand if you do not buy separately. Lens - Taiwan. My copy was good. For a beginner, it is difficult to choose the best lens.

Now I will say a few words about buying a camera. It will be especially important for those who, like me, will buy a SLR camera for the first time.
Firstly, do not be too lazy to find instructions on the Internet "how to check a SLR camera when buying" (for example, http://www. VideAmazona. Ru/photo_tests/reviews/ChdDSLR/ChdDSLR_00. Asp) and put everything written there into practice when buying. And take the time to check. If sellers do not give you the opportunity to check, choose another store. Listen to sellers with great care, if one of them disputes the provisions of the instructions (they say that you do not need to check or check in a different way), stop listening to him. Remember that it is beneficial for the seller to "sell" any product. You need to check for broken pixels on the screen, matrices, the overall operation of automation, uniform focusing along the edges of the frame, front / back focus. For this, a tripod and a laptop are desirable (I was provided in the store).
Regarding the "good" sellers and why you shouldn't listen to them - when buying a camera, the seller told everyone around that they don't need to check the matrix for broken pixels, confusing people. I started checking at two seconds of shutter speed - he says it’s better to check at 1/200, I unknowingly checked it. As a result, upon arrival home, I found whole arrays of dead pixels. The camera was changed 5 days after the examination. Draw your own conclusions.

Pros

1) Quality and place of manufacture (Japan) 2) Ease of use. 3) Weight, size. 4) Large battery capacity. 5) Swivel screen with good resolution. 6) The presence of a second monochrome screen (with backlight) 7) The relative simplicity of the menu and camera settings. 8) Fast burst shooting (5.3 frames per second at maximum jpeg quality - 58 frames per burst, minimum - 7 frames per burst when getting max jpeg and max raw at the same time) 9) Photo quality 10) 1080p video recording with many manual settings (even while shooting)

Cons

1) Lack of lens hood in the kit 2) Only manual focus when shooting video (autofocus could come in handy) 3) Digital zoom (5x or 10x) in 60d, unlike 600d, cannot be used when shooting video. Here it is used only for focusing. For me, a big minus, because given the size of the matrix, the digital zoom turns out to be quite good and could come in handy in the video. It seems that this can be changed with an alternative firmware. 4) The mode rotation ring has a stopper - you cannot make more than one turn in any direction, while the choice of the video mode is located at the very stop behind the base mode zone - that is, if for example you need to shoot a video, and I shoot in Av mode, you need to go through the entire circle in reverse side to twist the ring modes, unlocking that long. 5) Blocking the ring of modes (a controversial step, for me - this is not necessary and only slows down the switching of shooting modes)
