As a result, it's not the obvious continuation of the 30D - 40D - 50D pattern that its naming might suggest. Instead it sits pretty well precisely in the same market position as was once-upon-a-time occupied by the 'Elan' series of 35mm film SLRs (which in Europe were not-so-coincidentally given double-digit model numbers)."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1289430036.usr15670.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></em></p><p>Despite the doom and gloom behind the 60D's downgrade, DPReview found it a pretty compelling camera, especially those looking to upgrade from a 550D and not wanting to spend too much. I know a couple of people who'd have been pleased if this came out when they were looking to upgrade!<span> </span></p>
