T
he 60D has
features, like the
locking Mode dial and
natural placement of
the Menu/Play buttons,
that prove
Canon
really
listens to
their
customers and reacts
quickly. The new
Vari-angle LCD is
amazing. It’s incredibly
useful to tilt the LCD,
and will likely
improve your
composition without
you knowing it; I
could operate more
organically and found
more creative angles,
even low-angle or
over-head shots. It is a
huge leap forward!”

Vari-angle 3.0-inch Clear View
LCD Monitor
A first for any EOS, the EOS 60D
features a bright, high resolution, flip-out Vari-angle 3.0-
inch Clear View LCD monitor for shooting at a variety of
angles. By easily
switching between low
and high angles, the EOS
60D freely enables angle
adjustments even if the
camera is mounted on a
tripod or has a battery grip attached. It can even be
positioned to face forward, directly at the subject (the
display automatically flips to show the image right side
up). With 1,040,000 dots/VGA for spectacular detail, this
advanced, smudge-resistant monitor includes high
transparency materials treated with anti-reflective and
water-repellant coatings to provide clear and bright
viewing. Superb for reviewing, editing and deleting
photos or composing new images in Live View function,
the Vari-angle Clear View LCD monitor is also the perfect
means for accessing camera settings like ISO, metering
modes, AF Point selection, the horizontal Electronic Level
and flash options.
EOS Full HD Video Quality
With the EOS 60D, photographers as well
as filmmakers can take advantage of the
creative features native to DSLR cameras. Along with its
manual controls, the EOS 60D allows for full use of Canon
EF and EF-S lenses, including Macro and Canon’s new
Zoom Fisheye lens,
providing a plethora of
shooting options once
reserved only for still
photography. The resulting HD video is a standout in its
beautiful depth-of-field characteristics and remarkable
capture capability under poor lighting conditions.
Additionally, a
Movie Crop
function is
included: An
SD-quality video
(640 x 480) can
be cropped to
the equivalent
of about 7x magnification of regular shooting.
The audio input level can be set to Auto or Manual,
up to 64 levels, and a wind filter minimizes unwanted
background noise. The EOS 60D even lets users edit
video in-camera: On-site or off, unnecessary scenes can
be deleted and the start/end points of video footage
can be designated via in-camera editing functions
without the need of a separate computer.
Smaller, Lighter
Whether in the studio or on location, the EOS 60D is
fully equipped to capture picture-perfect footage with
simplicity and speed. With familiar, ergonomically
designed controls for intuitive operation, and a refined,
discreet and lightweight design, the EOS 60D won’t
disappoint. It’s the filmmaker’s best friend.
