The EOS D60 sits in the prosumer (professional-consumer) line of digital SLR cameras.[2] It succeeded the three megapixel EOS D30 and was replaced by the improved, six megapixel EOS 10D. It should not be confused with the Canon EOS 60D, which was announced in 2010, or the Nikon D60 of 2008.
In America, its initial pricing was US$1,999 for the basic body, or US$2,199 including battery, charger, and DC kit.[1]
