Key Advantages

The EOS D60 offers a sturdy build quality and user-friendly interface, making it accessible for advanced amateurs. Its 6.3 MP CMOS sensor provides sharp images with good dynamic range for its time. The inclusion of the DIGIC processor allows for faster image processing and improved noise performance. Compatibility with Canon's EF lens range provides vast creative flexibility. The camera's autofocus system is reliable with 7 points, enabling accurate subject tracking. Battery life and body ergonomics further enhance the shooting experience during extended sessions.

Limitations

Compared to modern cameras, the EOS D60 has a modest 6.3 megapixel resolution, limiting large print sizes and cropping options. Its ISO range is relatively narrow with higher values producing noticeable noise. Continuous shooting speed is limited to about 3 frames per second, which may not meet fast-action photography needs. The rear LCD screen is small and lacks live view capabilities found in later models. Video recording is not supported, restricting multimedia uses. Additionally, autofocus performance can struggle in low-light conditions due to older technology.
