Canon EOS 60D Many New Features of Interest

Canon EOS 60D EOS 50D born to replace that technology has begun to lag. The new Digital SLR is present in the middle of the series entry-level EOS 600D and semi-professional series EOS 7D. In general, the EOS 60D has some significant changes compared to its predecessor. One that deserves highlighted, Canon EOS 60D has added features HD video recording with a resolution of 1080 pixels 25 fps speed. While at 720 pixels resolution, the speed can reach 50 fps. The existence of these features are very promising with the increasing interest in video recording.

In practice, a large sensor of the EOS 60D can produce video recordings 720 pixels with brightness level is quite good. Transition frame video images are also quite subtle. With the external microphone port, then you will get a quality sound.

There are striking changes in the operation. Because the need to place a new button live view and video features, the first joystick functions to regulate the AF sensor found on its predecessor series removed and replaced with the Cross AF that location was in the middle of the play button on the back of the body. However, the joystick on the previous camera model feels more ergonomic than the new key.

Another new button found on the EOS 60D is the Quick Access. With the key, important parameters such as ISO, drive mode, picture style, white balance, lighting optimizer, metering and AF mode can be displayed on the LCD screen at once and then can be arranged quickly by using a combination of Cross AF button and play button. In practice using the Access button to set the camera seemed more practical than using special buttons for AF mode, Drive mode, ISO and metering which is located on the side of the body adjacent to the second LCD screen. Moreover, the buttons also have a few changes so that users long for the EOS series 50 need adaptation.

That makes a bit uncomfortable on the body is a locking button. For experienced users who often make creative photography by changing the shooting mode, the addition of locking the keypad will feel less comfortable. Fortunately, the EOS 60D has a large grip handle, so it felt very comfortable when held. However, the most exciting innovation is the use of swivel LCD on the camera. This is a concept that was first applied to the Canon camera.

As a semi-professional digital SLR bersensor APS-C, Canon increased the resolution to 18 megapixels camera. Because it is still using a single processor, increased resolution brings downs consequences with speed cameras. If the EOS 50D has a speed of 6.4 fps continuous drive, speed is only 5.3 fps EOS 60D. Set the resolution to a smaller resolution so that the resulting data is not too large so as not to spend the storage space on my hard drive.

Because it has great resolution, many of which assess if the EOS 60D has a high noise at high ISO. But the assessment is wrong, using the ISO 1000 images are produced is also still very good. When raised to ISO 3200 sensitivity, noise which appears still fairly reasonable. Generated images can still be used because of the sharpness of the image is still good. Start the ISO 6400, noise was quite high. Not recommended to use ISO 6400, except in times of emergency. Overall results of images from the EOS 60D is very satisfying.

Happily, Canon's 3.0-inch TFT LCD install 1.04 million pixel resolution on the EOS 60D. The LCD screen is very bright and clear so as to display the detail is perfect. Using the camera's Live View mode is extremely fun. Autofocus mode the camera is very nice compared to the EOS 7D. But at the moment is at the bottom of the LCD sun not work properly.

To increase the attractiveness of the new camera, Canon embed software with features that draw on the EOS 60D. Stock images produced so multiply, like grainy BW, soft focus, toy camera effects and miniature effects. It's just that the feature is run manually. To get the perfect image quality, Canon's RAW processing software also instill in the EOS 60D. Mode in the camera RAW file processing can be done quite easily. With the software, you can perform a number of corrections such as exposure, white balance, lens distortion, chromatic aberration and even set the picture style image manually.
