Sweet! September 5, 2008

Definitely the best electronic device i own. I have only had it the summer and have take between 5,000 and 10,000 pictures. It is lightweight and very user friendly. If you are a first time D-SLR user, I would recommend this camera because it is very easy to pick up and shoot great pictures. It is also great for an experienced photographer.
Overall, AWESOME!
 Love this camera but..... September 4, 2008

I love this camera, however I was dissapointed in the sports mode. Hoping to get some better shots of my dancers, with a lot of unsuccessful shots. I had to switch to manual mode to get a good action shot. But everything else I absolutely love.
I should've bought this one instead of the more expensive D80 September 2, 2008

There are too many great and detailed reviews of this camera for me to describe the technical advantages. We own a D80 and I just finished borrowing a D60 for two weeks and can't tell the difference.
All Nikon SLR's have the same body style, rubberized exterior for grip and the same aperture and shutter speed controls thumbwheels in front and behind the shutter button.
This camera is just as good as the $200 more expensive D80 and differs only in the smallest ways.
The D60 and D80 have the same set of controls and LCD readout on the body inside the viewfinder, they have the same shutter speed and ISO range. They both have the same megapixel resolution and quality CCD sensor.
It seems the only features the D80 have is the preview mode button which is a feature well used from the film days and would let you see the shot at the set aperture. This was helpful to keep you from wasting film but this isn't a concern in the age of digital and a 2GB SD card can hold over 2,000 exposures in basic exposure mode so waste away !
The D80 seems to have 3 exposure burst modes and a decent bracketing mode, but those are more often used features for NASCAR fans and lunging volleball spikes at the net.
If you want a Nikon SLR and don't plan on photographing flying bullets, then take this D60 instead of a D80 and save some dollars.
A great camera, but dont' forget the memory card August 30, 2008

First, don't ever buy a camera without holding one in your hands. Both Nikon and Canon make great cameras. The difference boils down to what you are comfortable with. I like the Nikon and got the D60 because I wanted something that I could hold with one hand (used for outdoor photography). Otherwise, I would have gotten the D80.
If you are new to digital SLRs, the menu system can be quite intimidating. Don't let that influence your decision as you will get used to it. You can take pictures immediately using the auto mode and worry about the menus later.
Important note: You need a memory card to do anything. No memory card, no picture (it does take the picture, but nothing is saved). Memory cards are cheap. I got a Kingston 4 GB SDHC Class 6 card for $14.95 (Class 6 is the best).
The camera comes with a US warranty.
As for long lenses, I got a Sigma 70 - 300 mm tele-macro instead of the 55 mm - 200 mm Nikon lens. There's no autofocus or VR, but it's not important to me. What's important is getting the extra 300 mm with a macro capability and good quality optics. You can fill the frame with a spider at 2 feet with this lens.
