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
Vari Angle LCD; wireless flash control built in; excellent movie recording with external mic jack and audio control; in-camera raw processing and image resizing; extensive software bundle included; good battery performance; excellent image quality, even a
Poor Auto White balance performance indoors under tungsten lighting; slow focusing in Live View; clumsy access to Movie mode, $1599
The Canon EOS 60D is an excellent upgrade for ‘entry level’ shooters (those in the 1000D, 500D and 550D range) looking for more control, an articulated LCD, wireless flash, and a more substantial body. If you’re interested in recording video, this DSLR...
Fast burst mode, excellent high ISO performance, hinged LCD screen, Full HD video recording
Its buttons could be better, the 8-way control button feels terrible and doesn't always respond properly
Canon's EOS 60D digital SLR camera is a joy to use in all photography situations. It's fast, it performs very well in the dark, it takes crisp and vibrant pictures, and it offers plenty of physical improvements over the 50D. In fact, it gives you plenty o...
Excellent LCD screen in terms of resolution and shooting flexibility. High ISO performance is impressive. Very good picture quality without needing to alter the default values. Creative filters are fun, but probably better suited to an entry-level model
Body no longer made of magnesium alloy. Some design quirks that affect usability. Slow AF in Live View
Provided you don't need ultra-fast shooting speed or a tough chassis, the 60D is ideal for anyone looking for a video-enabled SLR. Just don't expect a true successor to the 50D....
Abstract: Replacing the popular EOS 50D, Canon's new EOS 60D sits between the EOS 550D and EOS 7D and appears to have the same sensor as its 'siblings'. The company is clearly aiming this model at photo enthusiasts, adding some new features that will attract tho...
Good picture quality; decent ISO performance; HD video recording; articulated LCD screen.
Lacks dedicated video recording button; slow autofocus speed in Live View mode; slow burst shooting mode.
The Canon EOS 60D is great for anyone looking for a mid-range camera. It isn't as powerful as the high-end EOS 7D but the 60D shoots great pictures even at ISO levels as high as 1,600. Autofocus in generally fast although it is a tad slower in Live Vi...
The Canon EOS 60D sits at an odd juncture as it makes a break from its semi-pro heritage into the serious enthusiast market. For around three hundred dollars less, you can get a competent 550D, with less able handling, more image noise at higher ISO se...
Great handling, Good ISO performance with low image noise, High burst rate when shooting JPEGs, Brilliant LCD display
Missing joystick makes switching AF points more difficult

El tamaño del sensor y los megapíxeles permiten impresiones de gran tamaño. La pantalla LCD de 3 pulgadas permite visualizar las escenas. Imágenes contrastadas, con colores vivos y detalles
No está sellada para ser contra agua. La batería se descarga rápido al usar Live View en la pantalla LCD, además de que es un poco lento
Precisa para usuarios que tengan amplios conocimientos de fotografía, ya que es una cámara robusta con funciones manuales y distintas opciones de lentes. Además, por su tamaño, puede ser guardada en una mochila para llevarla a todos lados....
