Key Advantages

The Canon EOS 60D boasts a high-resolution 18MP APS-C sensor that captures detailed images with excellent dynamic range. Its vari-angle 3-inch LCD touchscreen enhances user interaction and makes shooting from different angles easy. The camera’s ability to shoot Full HD 1080p video with manual exposure control appeals to hybrid shooters. An enhanced 9-point autofocus system ensures fast and accurate focusing. The DIGIC 4 processor delivers quick operation and improved image quality. Compatibility with a broad range of Canon EF and EF-S lenses adds significant versatility for users.

Limitations

The EOS 60D lacks some advanced autofocus points and cross-type sensors compared to higher-end models, impacting focus performance in challenging scenarios. It does not support newer video resolutions like 4K, limiting modern videography workflows. The camera's buffer depth during high-speed continuous shooting is relatively limited. The absence of built-in Wi-Fi or NFC restricts wireless connectivity options. The camera uses CompactFlash cards primarily, which are bulkier and less common than SD cards in modern cameras. Its low-light autofocus performance is adequate but not best in class.
