Features
For photographers who look to the
sky, Canon is proud to offer the new EOS 60Da DSLR. Following in the
popularity of the EOS 20Da, the EOS 60Da is tailor made just for
astrophotography. It's designed to ensure accurate depictions of the
reddish hues when photographing diffuse nebulae in the nighttime sky
with the increased sensitivity of hydrogen-alpha (Hα) lines (656nm).
With the same advanced features of the EOS 60D DSLR, including a
Vari-angle 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor for Live View compositions,
an amazing 18.0 Megapixel CMOS sensor, an ISO range of 100-6400
(expandable to 12800) and more, the EOS 60Da is both capable and
simple. Perfect for long exposures while gazing up into the sky,
there's nothing like the EOS 60Da.
Brilliant Capture of the Entire Spectrum of Color in the Sky.
Increased IR sensitivity for astrophotography allowing crisp, clear images of reddish, diffuse nebulae.
To capture the full range of colors
given off by diffuse nebulae in the sky, the EOS 60Da features a
specially tailored infrared blocking filter that allows the light
normally blocked by a typical DSLR's filter to be captured by the
camera's sensor. This means that the reddish hydrogen-alpha (Hα) light
(656nm) gasses unseen by a normal DSLR are captured brightly and
clearly on the EOS 60Da. With its modified infrared blocking filter,
the EOS 60Da captures approximately 3x the hydrogen-alpha (Hα) rays
than the EOS 60D, resulting in astrophotography that is sharper,
clearer and more accurate in the depiction of naturally occurring
reddish hues of diffuse nebulae.
