I have used Canon T1i for over year and realized a need for change as two new generations(T2i/T3i) have come and selling my old will be pain after sometime. I was not considering T3i as I wanted to leap to next level. I had doubts in my mind about 60d(bigger, heavier, costlier etc). I held 60D in my hands at local bestbuy store and it felt very heavy(also due to wierd attachments to base of camera).I went ahead and ordered my 60D, hoping for good. And it turns out to be BEST!!. Weight is very ideal, grip is very nice(I don't have big hands) and much better than T3i(tried at store) or my T1i. Camera though plastic(as mostly said) feels solid and should hold good for years of normal use. Out of box picture quality is amazing and a leap from my old T1i. I am not fan of in-built flash use and that's where 60D gives me advantage of clicking without flash in low light, pictures are turning out to be great(without flash if you mind :) ).
Couple more quick things that I appreciate over Rebel's:
1) Most settings are visible on screen and not hidden under menu. Less fumbling.
2) Focusing is quicker than my T1i and I love that I can change focus points quickly in advance modes.
3) Battery is a power horse. Try to exhaust it!!
4) Top LCD is very handy and I like the nice shortcut to light it up in dark.
5) It has few other advance modes like Bulb, wireless flash etc but I haven't used yet. Good to have :)
Abosolutely recommended. Get yours !!
Do get yourself 60D book(I have snapshot to great shot) or others, they are must to get full juice out of camera.
