The editors didn't like
Where the Canon EOS 50D – the 60D's ancestor – features a magnesium casing
The EOS 60D is constructed from plastic. It's still tough enough for daily use
But it's a shame that quality has been cut slightly.
Limited updates over 50D
Not a tough build
Autofocus not reliable enough via optical viewfinder
Autofocus slow with onscreen viewfinder
Some nice design features lost (mini thumbstick
On/off button moved etc.)
Builtin microphone records mono sound
Use of plastic on body
Price
Some fiddly controls
Expensive
Bulky and weighty
Ugly ear pads
Dubious wireless dongle design
A little chunky
Wireless LS30s retail for almost half the price
Pricey
8way control button feels terrible and doesn’t always respond

Very fast; articulated display; excellent video quality and options
Some annoying interface conventions
The Canon EOS 60D is in many ways a great camera: fast, feature-packed, and with excellent photo and video quality. Some annoying aspects of its control layout dim its shine a little, however, so try before you buy.
There's no doubt about the fact that the Canon EOS 60D is a fantastic camera for serious photography hobbyists. Its revamped architecture brings a vari-angle LCD, SD card compatibility, and intuitively placed external controls to the table. The Canon ...
18 megapixels, Good results at higher ISO settings, Full HD movie mode, Flipout LCD screen
Compare Prices, Canon has been busy redesigning its range of cameras, now creating four distinct levels. The Rebel T2i is regarded as Canon's current amateur camera, the 7D is aimed at semipros, and cameras such as the 5D Mark II and 1DS Mark III are firmly aimed at professionals, This has left a big gap though for enthusiastic amateurs looking to upgrade from an entrylevel camera, Enter
Canon seem to be trying to carve out a new niche with the 60D. It has some clever features, such as a pivoting LCD, in-camera editing and rating facilities, wireless flash control, and full HD movie capture. But getting the best results takes a little...

Vari Angle LCD, Wireless flash control built in, Superb video, external mic jack, and audio control, In-camera raw processing and image resizing, Extensive software bundle included, Good battery performance, Excellent image quality, even at high ISO settings,
Poor Auto White balance under tungsten lighting, Slow focusing in Live View, Clumsy access to Movie mode
Sharp, beautiful images. Fast shooting. Excellent for low-light performance without a flash. Lots of video recording options. Manual operation during video recording. Articulating LCD.
No continuous autofocus while recording video. Lens makes audible noise when re-focusing during video recording.
The Canon 60D is fast, shoots gorgeous still images and video, and adds tons of options to make your video look professional, but those looking for ease of use may be deterred by the lack of continuous autofocus during video recording. Buy it now...
