Nikon D60

The Nikon D60 is said to be the smallest DSLR camera from Nikon. It has the capability to shoot 3 frames per second. It has 10.2 Megapixel format and has 18-55mm Lenses available. It has a quick start-up feature as well as active dust removal. It also ...

Nikon starts as its means to go on. Despite being towards the more recession-friendly end of the digital SLR spectrum, the D60 produces deliciously sharp detail and mouth-watering colours. Its 10MP images really are as good as any you'll get on a sub- ...

The 2.5-inch display is handy for changing settings quickly but you can't frame with it – the D60 doesn't have Live View. It's missing hand-holding features like Face Detection, Smile Shutter and a movie mode, as well as shutterbug must-haves like 9 ...

The D60 risks being not quite friendly enough for beginners and not quite techy enough for advanced users, but if you just want a simple, easy to use SLR that shoots gorgeous, high resolution images, it fits the bill. The Sony A200 is well worth a ...

Nikon D60

By Staff writers

A sterling budget DSLR with a great range of controls and superb high ISO performance

The D60's body is identical to the D40x's, with the familiar, simplified controls – everything is easily accessed, albeit with maybe one more button press than on the best from Olympus and Samsung

Nikon D60

By Kevin Carter

The 10-megapixel D60 is Nikon's newest addition to its consumer DSLRs and replaces the D40x. Although it shares a 10.2-megapixel resolution CCD and has a similar body design to its predecessor, the new model brings with it several major improvements, ...

Over and above the six-megapixel D40, which remains in Nikon's range for the time being, the addition of the new features on the D60 make for a more logical and compelling step up than the D40x did. With picture quality equalling the mid-range D80, ...

Nikon D60

one of the smallest Nikon digital SLRs ever'. Released less than a year after the slightly lighter D40, it's identical in size and also the same size and weight as D40x that followed. It also has the same 10.2-megapixel CCD sensor and a very similar ...

The main dust removal system uses standard low-pass filter vibration. The secondary system sends a flow of air through the mirror box to prevent dust from accumulating in the first place. Active D-Lighting is another new addition to the D60's feature ...

Nikon D60

Of all the DSLRs targeted to family use, the D60 is without doubt the best. It handles superbly and its matrix metering nails the exposure right. Performance and responsiveness are excellent. Images are by default on the vivid side, so colors are ...

Nikon D60

By Gavin Stoker

Nikon's entry-level D40x has been reborn as the D60, which boasts a 10-megapixel maximum resolution and a dust-prevention system. This feature was sorely missing on the otherwise excellent D40x and now brings Nikon into line with competitors.

Compact, lightweight, easy to use, solid build, sharp images, built-in dust prevention, RAW and JPEG capture, 500-image battery life

Not a revolutionary step on from the D40x, you have to spend extra to get image stabilisation

The D60 is fast in operation - ready for the first shot in the time it takes your finger to reach for the shutter button. Allowing users to just point and shoot or access more complex manual controls within the one device means it represents good ...

Nikon D60 DSLR (18-55mm VR kit): Review

By Mike Lowe

Has Nikon perfected the entry level compact DSLR?

Easy to use ; Good price ; Clever dust reduction ; Notable image noise improvements ; Small & Light

Shadow noise still an issue ; Macro and low light focus issues ; Plastic construction

The most controversial aspect of the D40/D40x design remains though; it lacks the 'screwdrive' in-body motors needed to drive older autofocus lenses, restricting options to Nikon AF-S or ultrasonic/hypersonic third-party lenses. This means many older ...

Nikon's D60 DSLR (not to be confused with Canon's classic EOS-D60) follows hot on the heels of yesteryear's Nikon D40x. How much EXPEED raises the bar above and beyond the previous D40x is for debate, but as part of the Nikon D60 package there's...

Nikon D60

By Jamie Harrison

Nikon's D60 digital SLR combines the Expeed processor of the D300 and D3 with the 10.2-megapixel CCD sensor and feature set of the D40x.

Easy to use, nice interface, good images, small, noise control

Some blooming, AF system, too simple at times, small LCD

The D60 is a bit of a mixed bag, with plenty to recommend it such as the dust reduction, and legacy technology from the D3 and D300. However, it also suffers from an older and cheaper AF system and a smallish LCD screen. But on the most important ...

Nikon D60

Not only does Nikon's smallest DSLR camera make it easy for users to take photos, it also comes with a suite of features for aspiring photographers who want to deepen their interest in creative shooting. So is this camera worth a thousand words?

Small and compact design ; Easy to use ; Vibration Reduction (VR) in the lens ; Great photo outputs ; Quick startup ; 3-area focusing ; Retouch menu

No motor in body ; No keys for instant ISO adjustment ; Bundled software is limited in terms of photo conversion

One of the easier DSLRs out in the market Page: 1 2 3 4 [5]
