Pound for pound, the 600D is the best SLR you can buy right now. The 18MP sensor, 9 point autofocus and 1080p video recording are all well and good, but thankfully it also takes amazing photos with bags of detail and accurate colors. It’s not hugely different from its forerunner the 550D, but the addition of a flip-out 3in screen is welcome, and the menu system is both easy to get to grips with and clever enough to make the best of every shooting situation, even if you don’t have a clue what you’re doing yet. Great for new snappers and grizzled shooters alike.
