Who Should Buy This Kit in 2025?

Still Good For:

  • Budget-conscious shooters (250−350 used)
  • Casual video creators needing articulating screen

Not Recommended For:

  • Action/sports (slow AF & burst)

Verdict

The 60D + 18-55mm remains a capable starter kit for hobbyists, offering:
✅ Solid image quality
✅ Great ergonomics
✅ Articulating screen

But its aging AF and video specs show its age. For under $300 used, it’s a steal for learners; for serious work, consider EOS 90D or R10.
