I am a professional Photography and this was my upgrade from a canon xsi. Overall there is no comparison, the 60D takes much better pictures and the video quality is outstanding. The only thing I wish DSLR's could do would be shoot video for longer than 10 minute increments.

Having tried other SLR cameras in the past this is the best one! It is the Charizard of all Pokemon. The double rainbow in a sea of clouds. All the features are perfect, the flip screen is brilliant for video, especially video bloggers.

I was between the Rebel T2i and the 60D and after a lot of research, I am very glad I chose the 60D. I'm new to SLR photography, and I origionally bought the camera for work, but I'm having a great time with it at home. I love the quick access to all the camera functions at the tip of my fingers and the second LCD display. I also bought the camera with the 15-85mm lens and that combo with the 70-300mm gives me a great range. I was in ... the other day and was playing with the Rebel T2i, and after the fact I'm even more glad I chose the 60D.

Exceptional camera... I could have bought the 5 or the 7 but after consideration decided instead on the 60D and a couple of L lenses. Maybe it is not the right choice for everyone but I am a businessman first and a professional photographer second, therefore I believe in spending as little as possible to satisfy the greater share of my market, and the 60D with a 50mm 1.4 and a 24-105mm cover the majority of my work.

I bought this as an advancing semi-pro wedding, event, sports photographer. To me, it wasn't worth the extra money for the 7D to get more fps and autofocus points. For weddings, if I can't focus on slow moving objects with 9-point AF, then I'm the one with the issue. Sensor is the same as 7D, so video is the same quality, with the added bonus of audio sensitivity control. The all right-hand controls on the back take a little time (perhaps a day) to get used to when transition from another Canon DSLR, but I think it's actually more helpful because you can memorize button positions and perform actions with camera to face. Articulating screen has actually been very helpful in wedding photography for angles I wouldn't be able to get with a fixed LCD. ISO levels are amazing. I transitions from a Rebel XT, where noise was noticeable from 400+. I shoot comfortably at ISO2000 and ISO2500 for weddings now.

I had the 2nd generation Rebel EOS XT and found that the small LCD screen was just too small for aging eyes! Also I wanted more fps and went for the 60D- love it! The biggest down side is that the only thing that is compatible are the lens- no card, no vertical grip or batteries! So had to invest in all of those. Be prepared. But the camera has so much more to offer and so far, it has been worth it!

The EOS60D is all and more. It is comfortable, lightweight considering all its functions, and the LCD monitor is dynamite. Lens changing is a snap. The Instructon Manual is kinda huge even in the small printied version that fits into the gadget bag. This is an upgrade from an EOS20D.

EOS 60D is an excelente choice of SLRD camera. Easy to use, great resolution, good buit-in flash, that can be used in simple takes. The HD movie capability is compatible with many other much more expensive HD camcordes..A good choice for advanced and beginers.

I opted for the Canon 60D over the 7D for a few reasons. One, the swing-out LCD is nice for high/low shots and protecting the LCD when not in use. Second, the overall set up for the camera is more modern and user-friendly. One nice feature I discovered was that you can remain zoomed-in while reviewing/cycling thru your images. Nice grip, nice size, and great results!

Easy to use and program to your preferences. Feels 'tight,' which I like. The controls feel solid. I love Canon camera gear. I guess I'll have to learn how to use the video feature.
