18 MP CMOS sensor
Ideal for those who want to create large, poster-size prints – or crop images
without losing any of the detail necessary for printing – EOS 60D’s 18MP CMOS
sensor is outstanding in low light, and produces images with incredibly low
noise.
Advanced creative
features
Use your imagination to enhance your stills with a range of creative filters
such as toy camera effect or soft focus. These filters can be applied to RAW
and JPEG images giving you creative control after the shot has been taken.
Basic+ allows you to apply a creative ambience, when shooting in the Basic
modes, giving you creative control without extensive photographic knowledge.
Vari-angle 7.7cm
(3.0”) 3:2 Clear View LCD
Perform detailed checks on images and video or shoot unique or awkward angles
with a 7.7cm (3.0”) 3:2 Clear View LCD screen, which features an ultra-high
1,040,000 dots for increased clarity. Switch to Live View mode and use
real-time visual feed to help capture the best angle.
Full HD movie
recording
The EOS 60D combines exceptional still shooting with the ability to shoot Full
HD (1080p) video. To satisfy your creativity the EOS 60D features full manual
control and selectable frame rates. You can also shoot high speed 50/60fps
movies at 720P for when the action is really fast. An HDMI connection allows
High Definition playback of footage and images on any HDTV. With HDMI enabled
TV sets playback can be controlled using the remote control.
DIGIC 4
Canon’s DIGIC 4 processor works with the CMOS sensor to deliver 14-bit image
processing, for smooth gradations and natural looking colours. DIGIC 4 also
powers advanced Noise Reduction when shooting at higher ISO speeds, plus
split-second start-up times and near-instant image review after shooting.
High ISO for low light
When light levels fall, the EOS 60D offers an ISO range of up to 6400 –
expandable to 12800 for those environments where using flash is undesirable.
iFCL metering system
A 63-zone dual layer metering sensor analyses Focus, Colour and Luminance
information, providing accurate and consistent metering.
Quick Control screen
Accessible using a dedicated button it provides easy access to commonly used
functions, ensuring that you are ready to take the shot as it happens.
Create a shooting
system as unique as you are
The EOS 60D is compatible with Canon’s full range of EF and EF-S lenses and
EX-series Speedlites.
