Incredible pictures2008-11-22
I debated between the Nikon D60 and an Olympus. I am quite pleased with my choice of the D60. My past experience with Nikon SLR film cameras and the quality of Nikon was the deciding factor. Having experienced poor results with a high dollar Sony digital camera someone gave me, I knew I needed quality I trusted, like Nikon or Olympus, not just a price tag. I considered the D80 and D90, but chose the D60 for its simplicity and its light weight compared to the 80 and 90. Amazon service and pricing, plus the large number of sellers that promote accessories on Amazon was also important to me. It really cut the time involved in finding "add-ons" for my digital camera. By investigating items offered on Amazon and eBay, I have saved a significant amount of money in building my Nikon arsenal.
Great camera for the price.2008-11-02
If you only have 600$ (I got mine for 564$) to spend I believe that this is the camera for you. Takes some awesome pictures right out of the box (provided you have a memory card). The modes on this thing are amazing - although I find myself sticking mostly to shutter and manual modes (having come from a film camera background). Prepare to be amazed at the ease of use and the freedom to carry this unit anywhere it's overall size and weight are both big enough to hold easily and light enough to bring with you anytime. If you're a casual picture taker or semi-professional - this is a great unit and you can save enough to warrant getting a lens upgrade or a flash. I enjoy this camera daily and hope that you will too.
Nice DSLF2008-11-02
I originally had a D90 - which is one heck of a camera, but it is about twice the price of the D60.

The D60, though a smaller body, provides excellent photos.

The D60 has fewer features than the D90 - such as a maximum ISO of 1600, but this camera is feature rich for the price.

This is my first DSLR as I had previously used print Canon's.

The D60 works well in low light situations - for example shooting indoors without a flash.

This camera offers good value and performance - I am very happy with this unit.
Nikon D60 w/18-55 lens2008-10-30
Excellent camera. I am very satisfied with the versatility and resolution.
For the money this camera has the necessary 10.2MP to provide professional
pictures. Highly recommended. The Nikon support is par excellence. Technical help is available for questions that are unavailable in the
manual.
great camera by all means2008-10-30
i got it from amazon, well i think amazon is the best place to buy from, fast shipping, on time and very good after sale service.
the camera is great as an entry dslr, its fast, gives accurate photos even in low light condition. other advantage is the in camera editing and repair. its light weight compared by other competators.
first i was confused between the canon rebel xsi and the d60. when i held them both in my hand i found the nikon more freindly and the color the nikon gives is out of the canon's reach.
this is a great camera. thank you amazon

A Quick Look At the Professional Digital Camcorder
Introduction Professional digital camcorders are better than your analog camcorder, or even your digital video camera. The advancements that have been made in the camcorder industry are amazing. Just like everything else they keep getting more and more advanced, and shrinking in size. Even though we have seen much advancement, the price keeps getting more and more affordable. Professionals are not the only ones who can now enjoy the wonderful benefits of a professional -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A professional digital camcorder allows creativity and quality to meet, and the cost is far lower than it was only a few years ago. Even in the late 1990's most professionals were using Betamax professional quality analog recorders, though the professional digital camcorder was starting to come into its own back then.
