review of the leading DSLRs

EOS-60D
Priced At $888 Body Only



Review Summary:
Great image quality and high ISO performance leave us with a very favorable impression of the 60D. A swiveling LCD and 1080 HD video sweeten the deal.
Pros
  • Swiveling monitor
  • Excellent image quality
  • Great high ISO performance
Cons
  • Slow AF in video mode
  • Awkward mode dial
  • No continuous video AF

Canon EOS 60D Full Review

 
Announced in late August 2010 as the replacement for the 50D and "designed primarily for advanced amateurs," the Canon EOS 60D DSLR offers a modest resolution increase to 18 megapixels over the old camera's 15.1 as well as a 1080 HD video capability where none existed before.





There's a 3.0-inch movable monitor (first time on any Canon DSLR), and some features that will sound familiar to 50D owners, namely a Digic 4 processor and 9 point AF system. The native ISO range now covers the 100-6400 sensitivities (expandable to 12800) versus 100-3200, expandable to 12800 in the 50D. Exposure metering features an "enhanced" iFCL (intelligent focus, color and luminance) system utilizing a 63 zone dual layer sensor we first encountered in the 7D.
The 60D features a fairly wide-ranging suite of in-camera image processing tools, including a RAW file menu that contains picture style, white balance, color space, high-ISO noise reduction, peripheral illumination, linear distortion and chromatic aberration correction tools that can be used to generate JPEGs without affecting the original RAW data. The camera also allows in-camera re-sizing of JPEG images without impacting the original image. Also included are creative image filters familiar to Powershot compact digital users, another first for a Canon DSLR.
The 60D replaces the 50D, but the first things 50D owners moving into the new camera will be replacing are their CF cards with the SD/SDHC/SDXC memory media required by the 60D. Also a memory is the magnesium body of the 50D; the 60D features a composite body that saves about 2 ounces of weight over its predecessor. The 60D is available as a body only or in 'kit' form matched with Canon's stabilized EFS 18-135mm zoom lens (as was our review unit). Here's the view at each end of that focal range:

For First Time Sample Images in World Around Us








Canon T3i Rebel announced.
priced at $799 for Body only.
18mp sensor same as T2i, 60D and D7 the monster.
Will be in stores in the End of March and might hit Pakistan in May.

If it's February, it's time for a new Canon Rebel digital SLR. Canon, which historically updates its best-selling digital SLR every February, took the wraps off the latest model today: the Rebel T3i. However, don't look for much difference between this year's Rebel and the T2i, the model it replaces.
Same 18 megapixel sensor. Same price: $799 for the body. Similar shape and size. One quick addition we noticed: The swivel LCD, which Canon introduced last year on the $999 step-up 60D model has been added to the Rebel. The LCD is a welcome addition, making it possible to shoot from above or below and still frame the shot.

Every thing looks fine the body, LCD and Built quality .





The Specs are same as previously reported by Canon.

There’s nothing new as far as a 600D replacement goes, pretty much confirmation of what we’ve been told before.
  • 18mp sensor
  • 3.7fps
  • Vari-Angle 3″ LCD
  • DiGiC IV.
  • Video Snapshot Mode
  • Redesign of the model nameplate as well.
A collection of other specs mentioned from various people.
  • Improved LiveView AF
  • Electronic Level Added
  • Slightly redesigned flash
  • Changes to the menu system
  • Unnamed software feature upgrades
CR’s Take
“Improved LiveView AF” will be coming with every camera in the rumor world. I’d take that with a grain of salt. Everything else is completely plausible.

Summary
The D7000 occupies a new position in Nikon's DSLR lineup, and offers a compelling upgrade option for D90 and D5000 users. In terms of its specification, the D7000 actually outguns the D300S in many respects, and at 16.2Mp it offers the second highest resolution of any Nikon DSLR, behind only the 24Mp D3X.
