Customers who previously would have bought the X0D series now have to decide whether it's the 60D or 7D that better suits their needs. It's not a criticism of the 60D to suggest that some of them could reasonably decide that they need the 7D's additional features.
New to the xxD line and similar to the EOS 7D, this pop-up flash includes an Integrated Speedlite Transmitter for control of multiple off-camera EOS Speedlites. No Canon 580EX II Flash or Canon ST-E2 Speedlite Transmitter is needed to completely control as many remote flashes as desired. Using one of 4 available channels, take complete control of up to 2 groups of flashes (A & B, but C is missing) with ratios of up to 8:1.
The biggest new feature of the EOS 60D though is its fully articulated screen – indeed it's the first Canon DSLR to offer one. This allows the screen to twist and flip in any direction, for easy composition at high or low angles, along with folding out to face the photographer or back on itself for protection.
If size is an issue and you want a genuinely pocketable compact with enthusiast features and performance, then the PowerShot S95 is your best choice. What started as a sleeper model in last year's range has now become one of the most compelling in the current Canon line-up and comes Highly Recommended.
