Hi All,
I have just upgraded from the very fine Canon 10D, which although old was serving me well until it hit the ground with an aftermarket 300mm lens attached.
It was announced DOA and they kindly replaced it with a 60D.
I am not just happy with my new camera but astounded and I am still within my first 4 days and under 100 shots.
It has amazing depth of field, great focus points, good macro and distance abilities.
I can not compare it to a the 7D as I havent had the priveledge to use one however the video is great for small snippets, kids shots etc, and the multi/sports mode is fast!
I am sure other people will have less positive things to say, but if you are coming up from a 300/400/450D or an older 10D etc this is a world away!
I look forward to proving its worth over the following weeks as I learn to use its new powers so much better.
Oh and the replacement for the Solignor 300mm was a Sigma 120-400mm so you can expect Stingray's and my bird, dolphin and eagle shots to improve dramatically.
Just my intermediate enthusiasts view.
