Ako, I got the 60D because I couldn't afford the 7D and I couldn't wait any longer, because I shoot weddings and events. My 500D wasn't enough anymore. So far, the 60D serves me well.

Specs-wise, I recommend the 7D. Although it's the older model, it has more autofocus points, has a faster shutter, and handles noise better because of the dual digic 4 processor. This is in terms of photo.

From the video standpoint, I favor the 60D. The swivel screen is such a boon for video plus dugay cya mu overheat.

Both cameras have roughly the same dynamic range, but since I'm primarily a photographer, I have a tendency to favor the 7D. It doesn't mean I regret getting the 60D. I just got the 60D because it's the cheaper model, and it is what my budget currently allows.

Depending on what you're using it for. If you're part of what I call the "choi2x crowd", then this camera is okay, I guess. Let me explain.

The choi2x crowd is my term for those people who buy a DSLR just to show off in public places. These people do not care much about photography, and do not care about learning about their camera or the craft. They usually just shoot in Green Mode and produce "hit and miss" pictures. They let the camera do all the work, and they are delusional when they say they're photographers.

Now, if you're not part of the "choi2x crowd" and are serious about learning photography, the 1100D may help you but only up to a point. If ako, I recommend a higher model, like the 600D.

Service centers. Canon has a service center here in Cebu. The problem is, because of the volume of units they are bringing in, ETA is almost the same as sending Nikon Cameras back to Hongkong or Japan. So for me, the service center doesn't matter. Less lng ang hasol nimo sa Canon, because you don't have to spend for shipping to get your camera serviced.

UPDATE: Service Center sa Nikon just opened sa BTC. So this should end the Nikon Vs. Canon war.
