New EOS 60D! A lazy start

Most amateur photographers are also (and unfortunately often only) fans of photographic equipment. Even I do not dislike! New
are awaited with feverish curiosity, so much so that even born sites rumors (rumors), which tries to guess what wonders will present manufacturers.

This month wait for a replacement for the EOS 50D is over. link Canon
In many asked after the launch of the EOS 7D, as might have been the future 50D to avoid creating a dangerous internal competition and displacing some Canon has answered them all.
Their strategy now is clear.
In the past, digital SLR cameras was fundamentally divided into three segments:

1. entry level SLR (EOS 350D, 450D 500D, etc..)
2. semi-professional D-SLR (EOS 30D 40D and 50D)
3. professional SLR (basically EOS 1D and 5D series)

Today things are changing and in the name of an increasingly systematic search of profit, the three categories are being divided into at least two subcategories.
is born then relfex 1000D which is the entry level and low cost, as opposed to 500D and 550D instead become an entry level advanced.
The same thing happened to the segment XXD now divided between 7D and 60D.

But what are the news?

• Meanwhile, the 60D loses magnesium alloy body and its size decreased slightly as the weight.
• The type of memory used goes from classic to Compact Flash SD widespread use today, this is probably in order to promote the upgrade of those coming from the compact or entry level of the last generation.
• The LCD 3 "becomes rotatable tilt, to the delight of those who love the Live View shooting and video.
• The exposure will be that of the 7D, with 63 zones and two layers while the AF is that of 50D 9-point cross at all.
• The sensor will be that of the 7D with 18 megapixels on a reduced size (22 x 15mm)
• There is the possibility to calibrate the AF in the car but you can control the flash wirelessly without the need for additional accessories.

Competition!
Note that from a while Nikon and Canon have decided to stepping on one another's feet, which for years has never really happened. The new 60D is positioned on the same section of the Nikon D90 as well as the D300s are on the same segment of the 7D.

conclusions?
7D A small, simple and cheap (hopefully at least) for those who "appeared recently in the SLR world and want a machine superior to the usual entry level. Knowing Canon
performance will be disappointing, but more than a few fans already distorts the face.
