That's true. Smaller pixels in 60D aren't they? I recently watching the Nikon D800 and 5d Mark iii debates on another forum it became clear downsizing a large mp image does give a sharpening and lowering of noise effect.
Smaller pixels are usually noisier (although Sony seems to have found a way to combat this) but have the advantage of downsizing to reduce noise. Not sure if that gets you ahead or back where you started though!
