The Canon EOS 60D is a sturdy DSLR camera with 18 Megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor that will allow you take loads of great pictures and videos. The bright three-inch screen, which can be adjusted to almost any angle, has over a million dots, providing an extremely sharp picture.

There is a large, bright viewfinder. The pictures themselves are of fabulous quality, providing great detail and amazingly accurate colours. The Canon EOS also allows you to take 1080p videos at 30, 25 or 24 fps, or 720p videos at 50 or 60fps. Videos are saved in MOV format. Full manual controls for the video are available, and there is a socket for plugging in an external stereo microphone.

The user interface is slightly different from that of older Canon models, so it may take you a little bit of time to get used to it. Fore example, you have to press a button in the centre of the mode dial in order to turn it.

However, once you have mastered the controls, you will be astounded by the beautiful, clear pictures and videos that you can take with the Canon EOS 60D.

Canon EOS 60D Rating
Appearance
A high-quality, robust and professional-feeling piece of kit
Image Quality
Images are razor sharp, as one might expect from an 18 mega pixel camera.
Performance
This really is verging on a full-blown professional camera, and the performance reflects this.
Features
Packed with the usual features you'd expect from the Canon EOS range, plus some high-end tweaked extras

Overall
This really is a superb camera. If you're thinking of buying the upcoming Canon EOS 600D, don't - buy this instead. The 60D out-performs the 600D in almost every aspect and, because it's now half a year old, you can bag yourself a 60D for around the same price as the less professional 600D
