18.0-megapixel CMOS sensor
and DIGIC 4 Imaging Processor.
The EOS 60D features a
new, Canon-designed 18.0-megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor that captures such a
high level of resolution, it’s easy to crop images for enlargement without
concern of losing detail.
The improved DIGIC 4 Image
Processor ensures that images are captured, processed and saved with remarkable
speed. With dazzling results, the new DIGIC 4 Image Processor also works to capture
and process data of images shot at 18.0 megapixels at 5.3 fps, as well as
14-bit signal processing for excellent image gradation, enhanced Face Detection
Live mode, Full HD video recording, Auto Lighting Optimizer and Lens Peripheral
Optimization.
ISO 100-6400 (expandable
to 12800) for shooting from bright to dim light
With a broad range of ISO
settings, expandable up to 6400 in the Auto Setting and 12800 with Custom
function, the EOS 60D enables shooting from sunrise to sunset and helps ensure
capture of the finest detail. With enhanced high-sensitivity optimization,
subjects can be captured clearly and easily at high shutter speeds without
flash, with minimized blur and noise.
Improved EOS HD Video mode
with manual exposure control
Designed for the evolving,
tech-savvy user, the EOS 60D features HD Video capture technologies – manual
exposure control for more creative control, for example – borrowed directly
from professional Canon DSLRs to capture stellar video with all the benefits of
shooting with a DSLR. By shooting video with the EOS 60D, photographers as well
as filmmakers can take advantage of the creative features native to DSLR
cameras.
Video can be captures at a
number of resolutions and frame rates for numerous applications. It can capture
1920 x 1080 Full HD video at frame rates of 30, 24 and 25 fps, for up to 4GB
per clip.
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.
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.
5.3 fps continuous
shooting up to approx. 58 Large/JPEGs and 16 RAW.
The EOS 60D operates with
such effortless speed that operation is nothing short of intuitive. With a 0.1
second start-up time, speedy autofocus and minimal shutter lag, the EOS 60D is
made to capture even rapidly-occurring scenes with stunning precision.
96% viewfinder coverage
allowing you to see more of your image in the viewfinder
The EOS 60D features a
phenomenally redesigned viewfinder that not only offers an improved 96%
coverage, 0.95x magnification, a 27.0° angle of view
and user-controled dioptric adjustment, it also features a newly designed
transparent LCD display that enables a number of viewfinder displays.
The EOS 60D also features
an advanced horizontal Electronic Level, that, when activated, is superimposed
on the LCD monitor to aid in achieving evenly leveled shots by indicating the
horizontal tilt up to approximately 9° in 1°
increments.
Enhanced iFCL
63-zone, Dual-layer metering system; and 9-point AF system
By taking into account the color and luminosity surrounding
chosen AF points, this system delivers an advanced level of accuracy for better
results even in difficult lighting situations. Since the metering sensor has a
color measurement function, exposure errors and focus errors caused by different
light sources are minimized.
Compatibility with
SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards
The EOS 60D DSLR uses
popular SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards. Compact, inexpensive and available in
increasingly large capacities, SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards are a perfect
complement to the EOS 60D DSLR’s compact and lightweight body design.
Compatible with the full
line of Canon EF and EF-S lenses
The EOS 60D is compatible
with all Canon lenses in the EF and EF-S lineup, ranging from ultra-wide angle
to super telephoto lenses. Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and
micron-precision engineering to deliver unprecedented performance in all facets
of the photographic process.
Flash Photograph
With a flash sync speed of 1/250 of a
second, the EOS 60D also features the acclaimed E-TTL II flash metering system.
With any of the flashes in the EX Speedlite line (sold separately), E-TTL II
