Just got the new Canon 60D camera this week as a second camera and back up to my 5Dmk2. I've only had a few minutes to play around with the menus and do my basic setups for my style of DSLR video work. Seems really straight forward. Easy to move around in and match most of my 5D settings. The audio is manual or auto just like the 5D ( Yeah!!! ) and has the same menu settings and adjustments.
The 60D uses SD cards as apposed to CF cards - that was a little bit of a surprise. But I use Hoodman RAW cards with their adapters on my EX3 as a backup kit for the SxS cards - so I just grabbed one of those and was good to go. They are Class 6+.
With both the 24-70 2.8 and the 70-200 2.8 lenses the 60D did a great job of focus and control. FAST autowinding. Wow. I had to turn that off... I hit a test run on the shutter release and fired off like 30 shots.
The pop out LCD panel is a real nice feature. I almost feel I don't have to put my Marshall on top to use the camera... We'll see...
Well that's it for now. I'll have more to report once I've used it on a set and gotten the "in the trenches" feel for the camera =)
