We take a look at how they compare photographically - is there a difference in image quality and noise? What is the 3-10x crop mode like for video on the 600D? Watch the video to find out.
PLUS: Bonus material at the end of the video - the video we removed last weekend. I.E. the video that people complained about.

when Kai demostrated the crop mode for video from far away some guy was walking and realised he was in the shot and ran for his life :) LOL!!!!!!!! that was hilarios!!!!!!!!!!
That 3-10 crop sensor zoom is very neat indeed. I have a 60D for photos and a 600D for movies.
I have the 600d (canon t3i) and it works great to make videos. I have used that to make all of my videos
The 600D is still a great camera. Looking foward to Fullframe though
After the intro I was watching you taking you pictures and talking about some kind of museum for minutes.. not what I expected.
***** So?
Thanks for making information entertaining as well! I appreciate it! Also, love your sense of humor and facial expressions. Looks like your just as comfortable in front of a camera as behind one.
Not saying I agree with people abusing expensive equipment but I think there is some benefit to seeing him beat up the cameras. I would much rather see him in his sponsored video drop a camera than myself! These videos tell me exactly how much water, heat and abuse my cameras/ lenses can take before getting destroyed. I know I push myself to my limits while shooting (standing over ledges, standing near water, taking it to the beach). He lets me know if I should be freaking out because my camera fell 3 feet or if it's going to be okay. Stop trolling people. It's not your stuff. Learn from it.
iambluetyler I hope you are referring to the ending when he is destroying kit lenses. Kit lenses are not worth using. When he dropped the camera, he dropped the prop camera. Apparently a lot of people fell for that.
***** that makes it even better! I definitely fell for that :)
+Hector Rodriguez kit lens are so good nowadays especially with panasonic and nikkn
Your videos are EXCELLENT! I love the way you incorporate your humor LOL....at the same time you are extremely informative and have helped me in making my camera purchase decision. Thumbs up!
These guys know how to turn up
I just ordered my Canon 600D about 1 hour ago because I got a great deal on it that comes with a bag and 8GB sandisk....OMG, I can't wait to get my hands on it! I currently own an XS! The biggest reason on why I"m getting the Canon 600D is because it has good video since I need it for my UA-cam ! :)
5:50.... Run!! Run for your lives. This guy is going to shoot me down... HEEEELLLLLLPPPP!!!
@nightubble if you dont do sports/moving objects photography, go for the 600d. in the future when you upgrade, you will not want another APS-C sensor anymore.
great camera 600d..
u guys are funny...
if u dont need those lens give them to others beginners....
I'm not "working" with neither of them, I'm a medical intern, I only shoot when I'm on holidays, and this is pretty much everything I need. But some photographers probably start with one of these. Or do you think everybody begins with a $5000 full frame SLR?
5:53 XD
minh cha that good huh? someone is wanting me to trade a 60d for my phone. he's offering a kit lens with it too. so your saying the camera is pretty good huh?
@busfullofchinks you might have a point. I live in the netherlands, and when I googled both cameras I found those prices. But price doesn't matter that much, it's just that the 600D is an entry level DSLR and the 60D is a professional one. I bought myself a 600D because I've just started photography and wanted an easy to use camera. So in that aspect they are very different camera's
That was a great Columbine reenactment.
Hi thanks for your video.
I have purchaed a 60D,however the lens18-55mm coming with the kit is not good for take still images. I noticed you are using a different one ,could you tell me what lens is that? I guess it is 28-105mm USM one for shot the photos. that is the one I am going to purchase.
the question is I am willing to upgrade to 6D a few month later. In your opinion,did this lens will going with the 6D body well?
WE ALL KNOW YOU DROPPED IT ON PURPOSE. HENCE THE NEW HACK.
IF YOU DROP YOUR CANON 600D-60D DOWN STAIRS IT WILL NOW SHOOT 4K!
IT WORKED!!! THANKS FOR THE TIP!
Finally, A camera review that even I can understand. Thanks, I'm about to pull the trigger on the 6oD!!
About the end part,
Wow
Apart from dropping, the other seem too intentional
Also it seems
I dont know
Not my style lel
So apart from the 8 more focus points, less shutter lag, 1/8000 shutter speed, faster fps, larger battery life, build quality and weather sealing. How exactly is the 600D better or even "near equal"?
thankyou
You can get the canon rebel t3i with lens kit on www.digilg.com/canonrebelt3i
for anyone looking.
This is a fantastic camera, and a great first DSLR. I say that because if it is your first, you will not be comparing the control layout with your old XXD or XXXD, and that seems to be an issue with some. I get it on amazon: ##amzn.to/1c5b7js
He is so funny! It just keeps me watching the videos all the time!! I don’t know if he means to but, he always sounds really sarcastic which makes it 10x funnier😂👍
5:53 oh shit !
I've set my sights on the 60D and I haven't seen it topped. I too want it for filmaking and with manual audio recording and all its other features, apart from not being a full frame camera, it surpasses its even more expensive counterparts. I am planning on getting one as my first DSLR as the price and bang for your buck cannot be beat in my opinion . I would highly recomend it. :)
Nothing useful and helpful things on this video.
I own an old nikon d80,
I've decided to switch to canon, but im in a fix, whether to go for the 550d, or the 60d.
Ive seen the youtube video of it made by you, but, im still pretty confused. Im NOT into too much of sports or really fast action photography. More into, portraits and nature. I wont be needing the burst mode too much either. Will the 9 cross-type AF points make much of a difference? Or should i stick to the 550d and go for some good L glass?
Please reply! thank you!
Kai has used the Titanic joke before... What a hack.
Is it right that meanwhile the 60D has the same crop mode zoom as the 600D (by firmware update)? And if not, what About Magic Lantern. Does it bring the crop zoom to the 60D?
This is a waste of time. Not a helpful comparison really.
Morgan Murdock
lol
I'd go with the 60D, only feature it doesn't have is the 3-10x crop. What it does have though which is not mentioned is a 10x crop but its only for low res 640 x 480
Im looking at either of these cameras, Iv played and used DSLR's before but never owned one, and am looking at one with a twin len's kit. The len's are 18-55 IS & 55-250 IS. Compared to other canon len's how do thses rank? Are they good for pritty much anything? Or are they more like lower end len's?
I own both cameras. Outside of the couple weak points of the T3i's photography and the 60D having more options in the iso, shutter speed, continuous burst and white balance, they are identical (outside of size, buttons and batteries) the only difference there is in video is iso stops(T3i only has half the options as the 60d) and the 60d has iso high one at 12800 where i dont think the T3i does also the 60d has "K temp" white balance option.
@aliciabiatch Because he was just testing out the Digital Zoom feauture and plus it's easier to record with a monopod or tripod which allows for more stabability that he didn't have. Or maybe you were talking about the focusing. If you were talking about the focusing then that was because there is no auto focus feature during video like some of Nikon's entry level DSLRs so you have to manual focus.
Good review highlighting the main differences and strong points of both cameras, 600D better for video and 60D better for photos. But what is that lens review all about, a counter to a few silly comments. I like your reviews very easy to understand and you actually show pictures and footage from the actual camera being reviewed. Keep them coming.
What microphone do you use to record the audio, i see its a wireless mic that you can attatch the receiver to the hotshoe.
Hello! I wonder if you would have the transmitter and receiver for lavalier like this that you used in the video?
Thank you!
@callmefantastic
It really depends too what degree of video production you are talking about.
If you wanted to shoot a short film, like something narrative, and were worried about being efficient during resets of scenes, etc. than the 60D might be worth the extra $100-150bux.
For one, the battery life is much longer.
And two, you have the 7D-like wheel near the shutter to quickly change settings...
like exposing for a Neutral picture style and then switching over to Technicolor's CineStyle.
so, for filming skate and serious short films, I should go with the 600D?
great video guys. i was just wondering about the mics u used on the videos and where you guys got themusic for your vid.thanks.
Very informative!
Now are you release chock tests too :)???
My heart was broken when I saw your camera drop down the stairs!!!
Fortunatly it wasn't damage.
Hello! Great review! I use Canon Sx530hs but i planning to buy a new camera. I'm thinking about Canon SX60hs. What do you think about this camera?
Hi I have a question. I am planning to buy an EOS 7D body and an EF 100mm f/2.8 L macro from your website. Items will be delivered to Melbourne. How long will it take and do I have to pay customs or GST for those items on top of the listed price?
hey there!!!
i just recently bought 650d from a well known online shop..but i keep getting this feeling that this camera has been used by somebody else before..i mean it doesnt appear fresh..and as there is no company seal, or screen guard or lens guard on new products, i am not quite sure if its fresh..any guess on how to find out if its used or new?? thanx!!!!!
What shooting modes and settings are you using for videos like these.
Thanks
Any chance that Canon will release a firmware update that includes video crop mode for the 60D? It's not that important, but I'd much rather have it than not. But I want a Camera that will take me from beginning, hobby to more intermediate, serious shoots (as I'm sure the 60D will).
I have a T3i, and use the 100-400mm L lens, it's worked perfectly for me, and the picture quality is amazing. Save the money, and get a nice lens.
thanx for the reply..i searched over the internet..it says canon doesn't provide any company seal for the sake of the retailers (returning and re-selling stuffs)..thats bad for the customers..
What about testing the lenses after putting them through that destruction? Perhaps with a few test photos?
@8888Eastman Hi i'm hoping to buy that camera...but why did you prefer it over the 60d?
when you filmed with the Canon 600D did you use the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Camera Lens ?
Can you shoot good macro shots with the 60D? I think that i would buy the 60D because it's like more balanced with the quality. i mean. now i have an canon 1000D wich sucks butt.. but can u get really good macro/basic videos with good quality with the 60D?
@Xpert30 What about build quality, or ability to take better video in the 550 vs the 500 (30p vs ~20p @1080), or the swivel LCD on the 600D and 60D, or the chasis construction material, etc. etc. etc.
+DigitalRev TV why isn't this dude on the Gadget Show? Pure talent at what he does :D
Thanks for this! Helped me out a lot with which one I should get!!!
This really is the Top Gear of digital photography.
would the 60d be a good camera for me to get for high school sports and action shots?
Hi, what kind of device uses your cameraman to plug his headphones in while filming?
600D and 24-105
is that a good combo?
i wonder if this is a all round purpose combo
I am looking to make music videos and short films along with take pro photos which is recommended the T3i or the 5d mark 2
No not yet, I've slowly moved away from SLR's and more onto HD Camcorders purely because i want to get into filming and at first it seemed like buying either of the canons would be good because of the ability to take amazing images and also the HD video but now it seems the camcorders have move to offer in terms of video quality and features.
What are you making videos of? Probably a really wide lens with zoom capabilities...
I need to update my DSLR (Mines only picture capable lol Olympus e-410). What's the best MANUAL video capable DSLR? Looking to buy something for the filming side more than taking picture side. Any recommendations are welcomed.
Does the 600D with a maximum of 60fps video make a huge difference in slow-motion over the 60D with only 50fps max?
what is that piece on top of your friends cam at 05:58? is it for the wireless mic? where would i find it
did you get those lens for free. may be that s why you were playing with it and how was the taste of the lens after cooking.
Because by using the best glass possible, you eliminate the possibility of the lens effecting the over-all revue. Using the best lens, and especially by using the same lens, the variables you're left with are on the camera alone.
@eveningniteshade You are right.
But don't call it a digital zoom then, call it crop zoom or whatever.
I reacted the way i did, because he called it a digital zoom, which is just zooming in on the pixels.
@aliciabiatch he's trying the DIGITAL ZOOM of the cam in this video. when the video mode is not using the digital zoom, it's lot better than 60D.
Hi I want to know does the Canon T3i overheat like the T2i???
That is one bad thing about the T2i that no one is talking about, I even went to a website where a lot of professionals that are using Canon 7D is overheating.
should i buy canon 60d now or should i wait for the new line ???
Is the AF in video mode better in 600d than in 6d? In 6d it's working only in manual focus. Just now I'm looking for some camera for video. is it worth to buy 600d if I already have 6d and 40d?
would you say the 650D (t4i) is a great combination of the two?
well could give these out to a hard working student who into photography but I guess that would a nice thing to do.
so when will you do a review of the 650d?
What camera did you use to shoot the film is the question
@AdroitNecromaner what do you mean? they both have the same sensor both are cannon and both have six's in their names
yeeah please tell me what lens do you used in the canon 600d?? is the 18/135 mm??
Great insight. Thanks for posting. P.S. the end of the video was prime.
WHAT MUSEUM IS THIS?? it looks really cool.
I can't believe you guys did that at the end! I mean, how could you?! What a terrible waste of beer.
Hi can I ask what radio transmitter and clip Mic you are using for the dslr please? Thank you
So is the Canon 600d the same as the t3i? It is kind of confusing
Why on planet earth does the 1080p crop only available on the t3i!? The canon t4i, 60d,t5i, and I did some research on the new 70d and it doesn't look like it has it as well :-...(
Your right, but using an L lens avoids any doubt that the lens is the issue causing any sort of image distortion or noise.
I bought the D600 based on this review because i wanted the x10 video but you did not mention that the D60 had autofocus and the T3i did not and i wish i knew that before i purchased my T3i
My T3i, which I bought new had an LCD screen protector if I am remembering correctly.
Was the kit len bashing necessary? I think kit lenses are great -- not only for the moh-neh -- but they're great period (.)
do you ever run into overheating with the t3i while filming?
Hi, i just buy the canon 600d for videos and what is the best lens for videos?
I had two T3i's for video. I just traded them in to get one 60D. Im not gonna go into detail, but after 6 months of use with the 600D, I would rather just have the one camera. Trust me, and spend the extra cash.
Hey kai my t3i keeps stoping automatically when videoing the internet says it's something to do with the SD card I'm using so I'm curious which SD card do you use ???
"lets go up the apples and stairs. " i literally burst out laughing at that i love you guys.
Pretty decent review- a little long. But then I'm biased because I'm not that interested in the photo side... A few things: I'm sure if you put a batterygrip on the T3i -which most of us do- it would feel beefy enough and balance better. Furthermore: you seem to be photo guys- I would have liked to see a sharp video image taken by the cameraman! Focus on the host! And when trying the 10x zoom function, why didn't you use a tripod? That's the only way to take a good look at what it's capable of.
They are not the same at all..
if you want to do video get the 60D, 29 minutes continues video shooting vs 13 minutes. The 60D got auto focus in video mode, the T3i doesnt..
no dude it does not have auto focus while video rec.
shanu khalifa I though the 60D is the same as the T4i and the T5i which the latest got AF in video mode..Also just learned that all Canon DSLRs are using a FAT32 system that limit the video files to 4gig or 12.89 minutes..Folks are countering that problem with Magic Lantern.
08:14
"As I say, TV doesn't lie..." LMAO
He was holding the REAL camera at his back at 08:00!!
well, it sometimes go like Pokemon version of Aardvark. It kinda changes it names into some countries, like in Malaysia, Rebel T3 is called 1100D, but in United States people called 1100D the Rebel T3. it's normal. i don't quite sure why...
I'm looking at buying a camera mainly to use the video recording feature because i want to get in to making short films and that kind of stuff but I'm not sure which to get I've look at both Canon 600D and Canon 60D the one feature that i really like is the screen on these cameras because you can move them around to achieve greater angles. Can you/ anyone help me or give me any pointers on which camera to buy. Thanks - great video subscribed :)
I have the Canon EOS 60D, Grip Canon BG-E9, Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC OS HSM Macro, Tamron SP AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC USD, Canon 50mm f/1.8 II (only last photo), Raynox DCR-250 Macro, Flash Canon 430EX II, Professional tripod Fancier FT6906, Hoya 72mm Pro-1 Digital Circular Polarizing Slim Filter, Memory: Sandisk Extreme SDHC 16GB 30MB/s HD Video, Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB 30MB/s, Tamrac 5606-R Pro 6 Black case and other accessories.
