[. . . ] This allows better reproduction of various phenomena, such as diffuse nebulae. Compared with the conventional EOS 60D, three times more light at 656nm is transmitted through the optical low passfilter of the EOS 60Da. That's 1. 5x more than previous astrophotography DSLRs, such as the EOS 20Da.
Shot with EOS 60Da With the EOS 60Da, the infrared (IR) blocking filter is modified to allow more H light to pass through to the sensor, capturing more of the distinct reddish colour.

Shot with conventional EOS 60D
The EOS advantage
Only Canon controls every aspect of CMOS sensor production, from concept and design through to manufacture and realisation. Each light-sensitive photodiode on a Canon CMOS sensor is fitted with its own individual micro lens and signal amplifier, providing extraordinary sensitivity in low-light. Such technology allows the EOS 60Da to shoot at a maximum sensitivity of ISO 6400 (expandable to ISO 12, 800), meaning shorter exposure times and a faster workflow. Working in tandem with the camera's 18-megapixel CMOS sensor is a DIGIC 4 image processor. The DIGIC 4 chip controls every aspect of the camera's image processing, including turning raw sensor data into JPEG or RAW image files. 14-bit electronic architecture provides exceptional colour depth and tonal range. The DIGIC 4 processor also helps to reduce digital noise in images recorded at high sensitivities or with long exposure times.
Remote camera control and time-lapse shooting
Supplied with every EOS camera, EOS Utility software provides camera control including remote live-view composition and tethered shooting from a PC or Mac computer. Simply connect your EOS 60Da using a USB cable and enjoy remote composition on your computer screen, camera triggering, image transfer and control over all of the camera's major settings.
