buy Canon 60d, audio Levels Can Be Controlled Manually, Which Makes For Far Better Audio Recordings
If you are in the market for a great DSLR camera, I would strongly suggest you buy Canon 60d. Why do I say this? It rocks in every way.
Audio levels can be controlled manually, which makes for far better audio recordings.
A big reason to buy Canon 60d is the top image quality In my opinion the 60d is the best choice of a DSLR. It is more robust than the t2i, better controls, and it is cheaper than the 7d or 5d, but, and has the image quality of the 7d.
The sensor is not full frame, but big enough. It is still the same size as regular 35 mm. You get the same 35mm look of shallow depth of field which only a large sensor can give you, meaning it is not so easy to focus. Yes a cinematic look like this is only made with large sensors.
Cameras that cost ten times the price are not as good in sensor size and image quality as this.
The flip out LCD monitor is the other great thing. The 60d is the only DSLR that can be used on a Steadicam without investing lots of money.
Flipping it out is all you have to do to let it fly. I use the Flycam Nano, and it works great, just don’t forget to balance the Flycam with the LCD monitor flipped out. You want the Flycam to balance properly, which is the hardest thing to get right at first.
It really is possible to shot a feature length film on the 60d. Honestly I am shooting one right now, and it really has never been easier. All of my set ups are quick and easy.
Example: I get a wide shot. Then I just pick up the camera still on the sticks, and move it in for the medium shot, then the two shot, pick it up again, and get a close up, that's how simple it is. Sometimes I don't even need lights depending on the ISO.
When shooting 35mm film you will need a crew to do this. Shooting on the 60d can be fast and spontaneous, and flexible.
I love the light weight of it. Is the 7d and 5d too heavy? Yes and no. For me I prefer the 60d. The portability is so cool. Basically you can take the 60d anywhere you want. I hand it on top of the worlds biggest wind tower in Germany, easy to climb up with it. And you are shooting cinema quality images, in public places without drawing attention. Try doing that with a film crew. In this way I think its size is its greatest asset.
The controls are better than the t2i, more like the 7d. The controls are accessible, so going through menus, or changing the white-balance is easy.
I know a lot of pros in the business after working ENG for over twenty years, and all the newspaper shooter I know uses 60d, they love it. In my carrier I personally have not had a more inexpensive camera that has produced such awe inspiring images. You will love it, so buy Canon 60d too if you are serious about DSLRs. See some cool footage I shot on the 60d. Drop over to my Canon 60d review.
