Stunning detail
With high resolution imaging, and
accomplished low-light performance,
the EOS 60D is a photographic tool
that will compliment your creativity
and allow your photography to flourish.
When it comes to image quality, the
EOS 60D has been designed from the
ground up to deliver, even in low-light
conditions. A high-resolution CMOS sensor
works in harmony with Canon's DIGIC 4
image processor to produce images
that are rich in detail and low in noise,
with excellent colour reproduction.
With a resolution of 18-megapixels, the
EOS 60D enables you to capture extraordinary
detail and produce huge prints up to A2 in size.
The camera's 5400 x 3462 pixel files can be
cropped into alternative compositions
without sacrificing image quality.
Each pixel on the CMOS sensor has its own
micro lens and signal amplifier, to increase
the light gathering capability ensuring high
sensitivity and low noise, even in low-light
conditions. Canon has maximised the sensor's
light-collecting photo diode area, providing
a wide dynamic range and the ability to hold
detail in highlights and shadows.
Data from the EOS 60D's sensor is
handled by a DIGIC 4 image processor.
14-bit processing ensures smooth
reproduction of tonal and colour gradation,
while Canon's high ISO noise reduction
algorithm preserves image detail while
removing unwanted artefacts.
Peripheral Illumination Correction can be
enabled for in-camera correction of light
fall-off towards the edges of the frame,
and Highlight Tone Priority helps preserve
detail in very bright parts of the scene.
