Just picked one of these up as a backup body/lens. Uber lightweight to carry around when I don't need my 60D and L-series lens



Sold my old 20D for $320, bought this for $650, again at my favorite camera store here in Calgary (Robinson's). Apparently this is the last one they have; I emailed them on Wednesday and surprisingly, they put a hold on it for me. I walked in at 11:30 this morning, and the box already had my name on it

Canon EOS 60D
Canon Digital Rebel T2i
Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L
Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L
Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
Canon Speedlite 430EX II

So chc are you still in College? Do you sell Drugs? That's $5000 worth of Equipment.

rofl, your spare is like other people's main camera.

[chconline]

Yeah, still in university Unfortunately there was some dust on the sensor. But the good people at Robinson's actually came and picked it up for me for cleaning (Yes, free), and delivering it back tomorrow

[TL6MT]

Wait they picked it up and got it back to you with cleaning for free?

[chconline]

That's precisely it. I'm going to stop importing my cameras from the US (Mainly B&H) and just buy from Robinson's Camera from now on. They got amazing service, and very competitive prices if you email them.

So how does it compare against the 60D in your opinion?

Not to jump in or anything but to my understanding the 60D and T2i is pretty much the same hardware inside.

[chconline]

Yeah, the hardware is pretty much the same. Obviously, the 60D comes with a little more features. The obvious includes a better physical build, better grip, articulating screen, auxiliary screen, pentraprism, etc. On the software side, you get to go 1/3 ISO steps, which is much better than jumping the classic 100-200-400-800 kind of deal. I think the 60D is well worth the difference, but just straight up image quality wise at the same settings, it's practically the same thing.

So basically same hardware but with a little more Features.
