The Canon EOS 60D is an 18.1 megapixels semi-pro digital single-lens reflex camera made past Canon. It was announced on August 26, 2010, with a suggested retail toll of U.s.a.$1099.00.^[1] Equally a part of the Canon EOS 2-digit line, it is the successor of the EOS 50D and is the predecessor of the EOS 70D.

It is the first photographic camera which has an articulating LCD screen. Autonomously from its screen, the main new features of the 60D in the ii-digit Canon line include increased resolution and ISO range, full-HD video capabilities, and in-camera mail-processing functions for the images. However, it uses the DIGIC 4 prototype processor.

Like the 50D, the camera has an LCD of settings on the acme of the camera where the ISO, AF-Mode, Shooting style, and metering mode tin can exist controlled.

The 60D is offered for buy as a torso solitary or in a package with an EF-S xviii-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens, EF-S 17–85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM lens, EF-South 18–135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens, EF-S 17-55mm f/two.8 IS USM lens, or an EF-S 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6 lens

Features [edit]

Compared to the EOS 50D, the post-obit changes accept been fabricated, including:

Resolution increment to eighteen.one megapixels APS-C CMOS Sensor (50D has 15.1 megapixels).
Maximum sensitivity increased to ISO 6400 (12800 as optional expanded setting) (50D has max 3200 ISO, with 6400 and 12800 as optional expanded settings).
Video recording, with same controls as the 550D/Rebel T2i.
- 1080p Full HD video recording at 24p, 25p and 30p with drop frame timing.
- 720p HD video recording at 50p (l Hz) and 60p (59.94 Hz).
- 480p ED video recording at 50p (50 Hz) and 60p (59.94 Hz).
Manual control of audio recording (same every bit newer firmware on 5D MkII).
Articulating screen (3.0") with a slightly higher resolution of 1,040,000 pixels, 288 ppi, in 3:2 ratio (50D has 4:3).^[3]
- The 60D screen, unlike that of the 50D, matches the aspect ratio of the sensor.
Lower maximum burst frame rate of 5.iii fps (50D maximum is 6.3 fps).
SD/SDHC/SDXC menu slot (50D uses CompactFlash).
Smaller and lighter polycarbonate resin with drinking glass fibre on aluminium chassis (50D has magnesium blend body).
Wireless Speedlite control.
Lack of AF micro-adjustment feature (included in 50D).
Redesign of controls – multi-controller has been relocated to centre of quick control dial; height buttons of 60D control only one setting.
Locking style dial.
Electronic level that can exist viewed in the viewfinder, rear LCD monitor, and top LCD console.
LP-E6 bombardment, as used in the 5D MkII and 7D.
Lack of PC socket for flash synchronization.
External shutter release port changed from 'Canon N3' socket to 3/32" (2.5mm) TRS pin.
In-camera raw evolution and congenital-in creative filters and special effects.
External 3.5mm stereo microphone jack

Digital Photography Review described the changes as representing the move from 'semi-pro'/'prosumer' to 'enthusiast'^[4] due to the reduction in some features; however the pentaprism viewfinder and iconic rear control wheel remain, every bit does the tiptop advisory LCD. The slightly smaller body retains the grip of the two-digit Canon line.^[five]

EOS 60Da [edit]

The LCD screen of the Canon EOS 60D allows quick review of taken pictures or of the photographic camera settings

Canon announced a modified version of the EOS 60D for astrophotography on April 3, 2012, chosen the EOS 60Da. The 60Da is the successor to the EOS 20Da. Information technology was expected to cost $1,499.^[6] The camera has a modified infrared filter and a low-racket sensor with heightened hydrogen-blastoff (H-alpha) sensitivity for improved capture of scarlet hydrogen emission nebulae.^[7] The 60Da is three times as sensitive to H-blastoff lite as the 60D to allow for meliorate images of nebulae.^[8]
