Canon EOS 600D and 60D - what is the difference?

Geewhizz on 23/04/2013 - 06:57

I admit to knowing practically nothing about DSLRs. Reading the specs on the Ryda site for both of these cameras I can't see much difference.

What are the main differences between them please?

    Not a lot. 60D has some more focusing options and a faster continuous rate. If you still aren't sure you don't need the 60D.

    The 600D is the consumer model, the 60D the prosumer in Canon speak. More professional options/quality etc.

    But don't take my word for it:

    If you are going to be shooting a lot of video I would go with the 60D. The 60D has a flip out screen which is especially good for shooting video.

      Oh, well never mind, just saw that the 600D has one too!!

    I agree with previous posts. If you don t know the differences, Go for the 600D (as cheaper)!

    the 60D has also has a top facing LCD display on the left hand side.. 650D only has a back LCD..

    after using a camera with top facing LCD, i don't think I can ever use one without it..
