The EOS D60 digital SLR camera succeeds and greatly expands on the acclaimed EOS D30 released in October 2000, enabling a broad range of applications to meet the needs of high-end amateur and business users. The EOS D60's imaging element comprises a newly developed 6.3-megapixel large-area (22.7 x 15.1mm effective size in a 3:2 aspect ratio) high-resolution CMOS sensor, an RGB primary color filter, and Canon's proprietary high-speed "imaging engine" signal-processing IC for a high signal-to-noise ratio, detailed images and faithful color reproduction. Even though the EOS D60 ranks in the 6-megapixel-camera class, Canon's CMOS sensor permits a broad range of ISO-equivalent sensitivity settings from the default ISO 100 up to a maximum ISO 1000. Feedback received from EOS D30 users gave many suggestions for improving on the features of the D30. These excellent new features include simultaneous recording of both RAW and JPEG images, development parameters that can be set and registered on the camera, and new custom functions which bring the total to 14 custom functions
