Great video! You mentioned that some newer lighting panels can run off of the d60 battery (the LP-E6 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Pack, correct?)-- which lighting panels are you referring to? I've been trying to cut down on the weight of my kit and having the ability to use batteries interchangeably sounds like a great start! Thanks for the additional info!
Heyy, anyone knows anything about the 650d?? Read about a bigger sensor and some improvements in video mode. Got any advice wether wait for the 650d or go for the 600d? Can't make my mind up right now..
I own an old nikon d80, which is unsatisfactory,cause of its video mode.
I've decided to switch to canon, but im in a fix, whether to go for the 550d, or the 60d.
Im NOT into too much of sports or really fast action photography. More into, portraits and nature. I wont be needing the burst mode too much either. Will the 9 cross-type AF points make much of a difference? Or should i stick to the 550d and go for some good L glass?
I would go for the 60D, or maybe a cheaper 500D if still available. The x00D series is fine, but the body is to small, hence awkward to grab, and this is a big issue if you want to be serious. Since they are both somewhat expensive I do not see the point in saving 100$ there.
Unfortunately Dave never touched on high iso performance. I own the t3i, love it, but the video is only good up till 800 iso. on the 7d its good to about 1600 iso. I really want to know if the 60d falls in the middle or is clean(er) till 1600. Any knowledge, Please Reply! Thanks.
@Daxelinho9 it depends on what you want to use it for - for filming, the extra features such as audio control, flip out screen and digital zoom are really useful. and the price difference is only £50 so I would personally say spend the extra 50 on the 600d and buy a new lens later on...
@MackEffects Good question, the 60D is a great camera for photos and video - the best cropped sensor camera that Canon makes in my opinion, but yes I would wait a couple of weeks to see what happens with the new 5D.
@MackEffects I don't think so because Canon is about to announce new cameras and I don't thing many will be interested in the 7D in the coming months.
i'm mainly going to be getting one of these for concerts, should i go with the t3i because of the digital zoom or the 60d for the much longer battery? a little conflicted
you said the shots from 0:30 till 1:17 were identical, but for me, the 600d has a bit darker colours in your examples. is this only me chestiness? i'm confused now.
the 60d does have a digital zoom. It's in the same place on both cameras. And why wouldn't you like the LCD screen on the top of the camera? You can change the settings without having to go into the menu.
if anyone can afford buying 60d and a good lens, i suppose that it would be ideal.. i am using 60d and a 24-70mm 2.8f IF EX DG HSM sigma lens for my basic and, allow me to say, daily shootings and I am very happy.. great photo and video shootings! it feels that u hold a great piece of equipment when you hold the 60d in your hands.
@bigamai If you're using it JUST FOR VIDEO, get the T3i. Use the money you save to buy a lens. Canon should be announcing the T4i soon, so you might want to wait to make a purchase since the price will likely come down.

Thank you so much for the video! I was considering upgrading to a 60D from my 600D. Now realizing that its not much of an uprgade as I expected, I am going to invest the difference of the money on a Sigma 30mm 1.4. Once again. Thanks.
very good comparison!!!!! thanks. but the the link you put for the price says 60d 899 dollars BODY only. and t3i 709 dollars for KIT. i think the differnce of the price is much much more than 100 dollars. i check it in other sites too . in amazon for example 250 dollars beteween 60d and t3i bodies..... . for everything else very good video!
I see a lot of reviews on image quality but I'm actually interested in the audio quality and options when it comes to adding external audio. I'm also curious about the filming time, seeing as theses camera were originally for photography.
Thank you for the actual side by side comparison. My wife and I are in the market for a new Canon, and we had to physically see the differences. After listening to you video I can say that I value your opinion. Thanks for helping us make our decision.
Forget about all these silly comparisons. Noobs comapre all these rubbish. In the end, its a choice between Full Frame and APS-C. I dont care about frames per seconds, or focusing points. How often are you gonna need that? And you pay double to get a 7D that is the same sensor. Idiots. Get a 5D MKII. shut up.
In my country(Indonesia), 60D costs ±$100 more than the 600D and ±$200 more than the 550D.
So yeah, i bought the 60D. 60D(body only) ±$700 while the 600D is ±$600 . I don't know whether this is cheaper or more expensive than standards but I don't really care.
There is a slight difference in video quality. The 60d picks up more detail in shadows and dark environments than the latest two rebels. Film riot has compared the T2i and the 60d more in-depth in terms of video, check it out.
The last comment you made was the crucial and defining moment of the choice. Invest in lenses not camera bodies. I've started with the 600D (t3i) and am building a collection of lenses, I will prob sell my camera body and get a 7D in about a year and a halfs time :)
@ultraret at this time I recorded this, there was only a $100 difference. I should have done a screen shot of both prices so you guys would believe me.
@drumat5280 alright makes sense the price changed.try a youtube annotation to update your video.anyway its looks like the t3i is the better deal. thanks again very for the very helpful comparison.
@drumat5280 thanks so much for a very informative review, i have been looking at upgrading my body and couldnt tell the difference between these two, and digitalrev is hopeless, all he craps on about is how the body is plastic and no longer metal, but this helped me heaps
@drumat5280 believe you isn't the right phrase, so that we could see the prices at that time, would be more accurate, but regardless, i love this review, please keep up the work!
@drumat5280 Question 1: Im still going through your videos so I don't know if you touched on it but what camera/lens combination would you recommend for more of the pro magazine/promotional photo look. For video what would give you more of the music video look and not so much the cinematic movie/commercial look?
@lcko Yea definitely are. I'm working on my music promotion. I'm currently interning (without pay) at an entertainment company and am about to relocate for college with no job. As you can probably tell in my situation being 20 I wont be able to buy a vast amount of cameras and lenses, this is pretty much a "1shot do not miss your chance" kind of situation. I need something with a fair price that can still get me pretty good results the FIRSTtime around to start off until i can invest more later.
@bangbangboogybaby Alright. I know I am not drumat5280, but I'm going to give you MY answer anyway. There are many factors you have to consider and not just a good camera/lens combination (both for video and photo if you want that "pro" look) such as a nice lightning setup (I cant stress enough how important this is), dolly/sliders, general camera handling and treatment of your raw footage afterwards in your software of choice. All of these, depending on how you manage, will give you the look...
@lcko that you are after. I would say a good combination in a rather low price range would be a standard 550D/600D kit. Honestly, people have gotten fantastic results with them, just search for it here on youtube. If you have more money to spare, invest in a tripod and a slider (or build one if you're handy!). Both will give your footage a dramatic improvement in terms of more pro looking footage. Again, everything comes down to how you use your tools, with the camera being JUST a tool. .
@lcko Right, yea that's another thing I've been reading up on. I know how important lighting is, makes such a huge difference even on something as simple as webcams or cell phones. Until earlier this afternoon I didn't know soft boxes weren't actually lights and some of these DIY tuts are pretty good so I plan on building a few to just start me off indy. Post production is definitely something i've been working to get better at as well.
@bangbangboogybaby Hey since you answered that question....I'm also a little confused as to what these "filter slides" do and how they would be used. Also I was told the Millimeters determine the focal length so what exactly determines the clarity/sharpness and character or overall look of a lens?
@ultraret I believe the price of the t3i dropped while the 60D stayed the same. I got my T3i refurb for about $650, but when it came out, I believe the T3i was closer to $1000. The 60d body is just under a grand (at it's lowest price) on eBay.
How come u say similarly priced? Atleast here where i live the 60d (body only) is almost twice the price of 600d. And yeah, picture quality is similar like also in 7d. But when it comes to ergonomics, build quality (weather proofing) and ruggednes/ the feel, and like u said some of the more advanced features in 60d especially for still photography. I have used them both and in my opinion the 60d is in a whole different class. Altought with a higher price tag. Thx for the good review anyways! ;)
Hey Dave. Great Comparison Video. I have both the 60D and the T3i and I love them both! Keep doing your thing. You channel is a BIG help. Come by my channel. I create some informative and interesting things with Music Production. Take care!
this 1 thing amazes me: i bought the 600d it was actualy 200 euro's (245 $ us) cheaper then the 60d here. are the prices so difrent that its only a mild 87 euro's between the 2 in the us ?
I was just wondering if you ever had a shutter life replaced when it ran out. Is it recommendable? Like does it have future problems? Or is it just better to buy a new camera?
My parents recently bought me a 60D, thanks to your video that helped us decide, and I was thinking about if I could use it frequently (because I’m the type who could take thousands of photos within a week) or I should tone down a bit.
In regards to video, what about frame rates? I know that the t2i can shoot 50 and 60 fps ( all be it at 720p), and i belive the 60d does not?? Is this correct and what about the t3i? Also is the video chip exactly the same in the t3i as the 60d???
@NicholasClarkeMedia 60D does shoot 50 and 60fps at 720p. The T3i also can shoot 50 and 60fps at 720p. All three of the cameras share the same 18MP Sensor and all three also have the same Digic4 processor.
I think the price difference is around 300-400. If you don't care about this difference. Definitely go with 60D. It feels right. But you can save this 400 dollars and spend it on L lens, which will make a great difference between this image quality. May be 2 years you can upgrade to full frame camera and you can still benefit from L lens. So with the same image processor, save the money, spend it on L lens (This is what makes a difference)
the image quality isnt gonna b the same. each camera takes the iso differently. for ex, the t2i/t3i is going to have more noise then the 60d and same goes for the 60d/7d. plus the iso options effect the quality as well. you could use the 1/3 stops on the 60d and get less noise than if u used one of the stops on the t2i/t3i
60d is heavier wich is good for video, it is weather RESISTENT not weather proof.. wich also is a big + for me. You may not be used to look at the top info screen but its a life savior for me. And the electronic lvl is nice with sliders etc. The 60D is also handles higher ISO better then the 600D.. So if you going to Shoot video and take photos to choose the 60D its much better in my opinion :))
@TheUberPeople The weatherproofing isn't as good as on the 7D or Pentax K-5 (more expensive), but it is definitely better than the 600D. It certainly isn't a main feature on the camera but if it is an issue for you and you can't afford the 7D or K-5 then the little bit extra for the 60D is worth it. It is hard to quantify weatherproofing unfortunately.
can i see everything on the screen while im taking pictures, because i have glasses and when i have to look in that small thing i cant see anything :D ??? HELP ME PLEASE, and is there any way to get it sheaper because i would have to collect money about 7 years to get that xd
@TheWildBubble i suggest you are talking about the view finder. i have glasses and its no problem at all. and try to look for used cameras, maybe on ebay, to get it cheaper.
@TheWildBubble i wear glasses and I bought the 60d and the viewfinder (which is what you're talking about) is really big that I have no problems with it at all. I haven't touched the 600d yet but I have experience with 550d, and the viewfinder was kinda small for me, who wears glasses. i hope this helps.
Minute 1:04 you can clearly see in the water that 60d has a better dynamic range. This made me get the 60d over the T3i. All I can say.. is wow , I got to use the T3i too but you can`t compare it... just the way it feels in your hand.... :) Great vid!
@cnlb88 Heey... Are those prices just the body? Here in Holland I can get the 60d body for € 797 I don't think the difference should be that big..On the other hand, the 600d is here for € 515. So still a big difference...
Just bought a Canon t3i.Still learning the ends and outs of using the Camera.I like the point you made at the end of the video.I hadn't thought about that before.So I'm going to wait a bit before I buy additional lenses.As you say the camera body's will change but you can always use great quality lenses.
I think its foolish to go with the T3i. I mean for just $100 more you get a semi-pro body. If you are really on a budget and are a video shooter mainly go with the T2i its better bang for your buck. I shoot both Canon and Nikon. I shoot video with my canon T2i and photos with my Nikon D7k. I love the T2i but the build quality is horrible its a little cracked after only about a year using it. Anyhow, that's why I say get the semi-pro if you sell it at least you can say its not cracked!!
@FlamingShutter Depends on where you buy them. I prefer to buy gear at places where I can return it myself if something is broken. Here in the Netherlands the median prices of the 600d and 60d bodies are 560 euro and 835 euro respectively. That is a difference of 275 euro or 50% of the purchase price of the 600d. I'd call that a considerable difference.
They are both amazing cameras. But he is right in the next 1 or 2 years there would be more improvements in cameras especially Canon, I am only starting with DSLR, so I think the T3i is a better choice as I am the type of person that would like to update technology on a yearly basis. I like the idea of simplicity of the T3i too many buttons confuses me. One of the reasons as why I sold my Nikon D90 to my partner. This video really made me commit upon purchasing Canon's T3i
Everyone. The 7D,60D,t3i,t2i all have the same sensor. They all produce the same quality,photos, and video. The best upgrade from a t2i is either a 7d or 5dmk2. Because the build quality of the 7D is very good
he doesn't use the level meter, the LCD of the 60 D....the bigger viewfinder...., why not use just a T2i.... you're trying to make 2 things sound like their the same.... and no the bodies are not even close...smaller and lighter...a Volkswagen is no Mercedes.....and its no 100 Dollars....WHY even pretend they are the same..its no toss uP!!! get your facts.
Great video! You mentioned that some newer lighting panels can run off of the d60 battery (the LP-E6 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Pack, correct?)-- which lighting panels are you referring to? I've been trying to cut down on the weight of my kit and having the ability to use batteries interchangeably sounds like a great start! Thanks for the additional info!

In my country(Indonesia), 60D costs ±$100 more than the 600D and ±$200 more than the 550D.
So yeah, i bought the 60D. 60D(body only) ±$700 while the 600D is ±$600 . I don't know whether this is cheaper or more expensive than standards but I don't really care.

There is a slight difference in video quality. The 60d picks up more detail in shadows and dark environments than the latest two rebels. Film riot has compared the T2i and the 60d more in-depth in terms of video, check it out.

I had a 450D, and it (practically) never filled up the buffer like that. How could they make the 600D worse? Strange.

->
bigger files sizes (450d - 12mp, 600d - 18mp )
maybe they also skimped on the buffer size.
maybe he was using a really slow sd card.
faster cards can delay the buffer overflow for one or two frames.

The last comment you made was the crucial and defining moment of the choice. Invest in lenses not camera bodies. I've started with the 600D (t3i) and am building a collection of lenses, I will prob sell my camera body and get a 7D in about a year and a halfs time :)

@drumat5280 Question 1: Im still going through your videos so I don't know if you touched on it but what camera/lens combination would you recommend for more of the pro magazine/promotional photo look. For video what would give you more of the music video look and not so much the cinematic movie/commercial look?

@bangbangboogybaby Are these serious questions?
lcko 3 weeks ago
@lcko Yea definitely are. I'm working on my music promotion. I'm currently interning (without pay) at an entertainment company and am about to relocate for college with no job. As you can probably tell in my situation being 20 I wont be able to buy a vast amount of cameras and lenses, this is pretty much a "1shot do not miss your chance" kind of situation. I need something with a fair price that can still get me pretty good results the FIRSTtime around to start off until i can invest more later.
bangbangboogybaby 3 weeks ago
@bangbangboogybaby Alright. I know I am not drumat5280, but I'm going to give you MY answer anyway. There are many factors you have to consider and not just a good camera/lens combination (both for video and photo if you want that "pro" look) such as a nice lightning setup (I cant stress enough how important this is), dolly/sliders, general camera handling and treatment of your raw footage afterwards in your software of choice. All of these, depending on how you manage, will give you the look...
lcko 3 weeks ago
@lcko that you are after. I would say a good combination in a rather low price range would be a standard 550D/600D kit. Honestly, people have gotten fantastic results with them, just search for it here on youtube. If you have more money to spare, invest in a tripod and a slider (or build one if you're handy!). Both will give your footage a dramatic improvement in terms of more pro looking footage. Again, everything comes down to how you use your tools, with the camera being JUST a tool. .
lcko 3 weeks ago
@lcko Right, yea that's another thing I've been reading up on. I know how important lighting is, makes such a huge difference even on something as simple as webcams or cell phones. Until earlier this afternoon I didn't know soft boxes weren't actually lights and some of these DIY tuts are pretty good so I plan on building a few to just start me off indy. Post production is definitely something i've been working to get better at as well.
bangbangboogybaby 3 weeks ago
@bangbangboogybaby Hey since you answered that question....I'm also a little confused as to what these "filter slides" do and how they would be used. Also I was told the Millimeters determine the focal length so what exactly determines the clarity/sharpness and character or overall look of a lens?

@bangbangboogybaby Sorry, I can't answer that. Someone else will have to fill in. :) Hoping dave will see this and join the chat.

@ultraret I believe the price of the t3i dropped while the 60D stayed the same. I got my T3i refurb for about $650, but when it came out, I believe the T3i was closer to $1000. The 60d body is just under a grand (at it's lowest price) on eBay.

How come u say similarly priced? Atleast here where i live the 60d (body only) is almost twice the price of 600d. And yeah, picture quality is similar like also in 7d. But when it comes to ergonomics, build quality (weather proofing) and ruggednes/ the feel, and like u said some of the more advanced features in 60d especially for still photography. I have used them both and in my opinion the 60d is in a whole different class. Altought with a higher price tag. Thx for the good review anyways! ;)

I was just wondering if you ever had a shutter life replaced when it ran out. Is it recommendable? Like does it have future problems? Or is it just better to buy a new camera?
My parents recently bought me a 60D, thanks to your video that helped us decide, and I was thinking about if I could use it frequently (because I’m the type who could take thousands of photos within a week) or I should tone down a bit.

I think the price difference is around 300-400. If you don't care about this difference. Definitely go with 60D. It feels right. But you can save this 400 dollars and spend it on L lens, which will make a great difference between this image quality. May be 2 years you can upgrade to full frame camera and you can still benefit from L lens. So with the same image processor, save the money, spend it on L lens (This is what makes a difference)

djonutube 2 months ago
the image quality isnt gonna b the same. each camera takes the iso differently. for ex, the t2i/t3i is going to have more noise then the 60d and same goes for the 60d/7d. plus the iso options effect the quality as well. you could use the 1/3 stops on the 60d and get less noise than if u used one of the stops on the t2i/t3i

60d is heavier wich is good for video, it is weather RESISTENT not weather proof.. wich also is a big + for me. You may not be used to look at the top info screen but its a life savior for me. And the electronic lvl is nice with sliders etc. The 60D is also handles higher ISO better then the 600D.. So if you going to Shoot video and take photos to choose the 60D its much better in my opinion :))

TheUberPeople 1 month ago
@TheUberPeople The weatherproofing isn't as good as on the 7D or Pentax K-5 (more expensive), but it is definitely better than the 600D. It certainly isn't a main feature on the camera but if it is an issue for you and you can't afford the 7D or K-5 then the little bit extra for the 60D is worth it. It is hard to quantify weatherproofing unfortunately.

Minute 1:04 you can clearly see in the water that 60d has a better dynamic range. This made me get the 60d over the T3i. All I can say.. is wow , I got to use the T3i too but you can`t compare it... just the way it feels in your hand.... :) Great vid!

I'm in the situation now: 600D vs. 60D
My decision (using the dslr mostly for timelapse): 600D
Price comparision from amazon.de: 600D = 559€ vs 60D = 906€
That are 347€ price difference !!!
So I will stick with the 600D and buy a nice battery grip + the tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 lens
Then I'm still at the same price that the 60D will cost.....:D

I think its foolish to go with the T3i. I mean for just $100 more you get a semi-pro body. If you are really on a budget and are a video shooter mainly go with the T2i its better bang for your buck. I shoot both Canon and Nikon. I shoot video with my canon T2i and photos with my Nikon D7k. I love the T2i but the build quality is horrible its a little cracked after only about a year using it. Anyhow, that's why I say get the semi-pro if you sell it at least you can say its not cracked!!

@FlamingShutter Depends on where you buy them. I prefer to buy gear at places where I can return it myself if something is broken. Here in the Netherlands the median prices of the 600d and 60d bodies are 560 euro and 835 euro respectively. That is a difference of 275 euro or 50% of the purchase price of the 600d. I'd call that a considerable difference.
brankocollin 2 months ago
They are both amazing cameras. But he is right in the next 1 or 2 years there would be more improvements in cameras especially Canon, I am only starting with DSLR, so I think the T3i is a better choice as I am the type of person that would like to update technology on a yearly basis. I like the idea of simplicity of the T3i too many buttons confuses me. One of the reasons as why I sold my Nikon D90 to my partner. This video really made me commit upon purchasing Canon's T3i

Everyone. The 7D,60D,t3i,t2i all have the same sensor. They all produce the same quality,photos, and video. The best upgrade from a t2i is either a 7d or 5dmk2. Because the build quality of the 7D is very good
