(3/24/08)
Summary: Read the full review
Verdict: Despite modest improvements in performance and a couple of new features, Nikon's D60 fails to impress and costs more than some competing models.
Pros: ; Optically stabilized kit lens; convenient onscreen user interface; compatible with a wide variety of lenses and accessories.
Cons: ; Pricey for what it offers; lens-based image stabilization is less flexible than sensor-shift offered by some competitors.

Summary: If the new D60 looks familiar, there's a simple explanation. Hold the old D40X model in one hand and this camera in the other, and aside from the silver model-name badge you'll struggle to tell the difference. Read the full review

Nikon D60


Summary: The D60 isn¿t so different from the D40x. The main changes are the anti-dust system, the new Nikkor 18-55mm VR kit lens and eye-sensor. The pictures are great, and the picture modes and retouching are impressive. The handling remains a sore point. Read the full review
