Summary: great product and great seller!
Comment: Really great product by Nikon.
But I think I should have gone with D80 because D80 has some advanced features like Bracketing. But for home use it is the best camera.

Summary: Nikon D60
Comment: Recently purchased Nikon D60 with 18mm-55mm VR lens. Very happy with the product and the performance. Was taking pictures as soon as the battery was charged. Ease of use and picture quality is excellent. User will get great shots with this camera if exposure setting is set at -0.3 in the "Program" mode. Auto setting is too bright. The VR lens allows the user to get great pictures with longer exposure times and small aperture settings while hand held. Suggest a 52mm UV filter and a backup battery as necessities. Shop the internet for batteries as these can be bought for less than $10.00 rather than to pay the Nikon price. These substitutions are great and perform as well as the higher priced batteries. Ken Rockwell's website on the D40 camera is as helpful as the users manual and far easier to follow to get a complete understanding of how to use the D60 (almost identical to the D40)

Summary: Great Digital SLR
Comment: This is My first Nikon. I have been a fan of Canon and Olympus for many years. Previous to this camera, I was using an Olympus Evolt 500. The E-500 is a good camera. However, it is older and some aspects of the 500 bugged me. The view finder could have been a little clearer, the focus could have been faster and although the picture quality was good, it still wasnt quite at the level I wanted. I was on the verge of buying two new lenses, which were better and more expensive than the two kit lenses, and a external flash. Then one day while I was out at the big Warehouse Store shopping, I saw the Nikon D60 kit with camera bag and two lenses and for about the same cost as I was ready to spend on my 500. I knew this camera had great reviews and was one of the top 10 recommended digital SLRs on one of my favorite camera review sites. So I bought it and put my 500 up for sale and am happy I did. The quality is very good. Colors are great and so is detail. Overall the D60 is easier to use. I can figure out settings very quickly. The D60 is also fast. Much faster than my 500 when it comes to quick pictures in succession. The D60 also has a very nice shutter click that I like. One thing I noticed about the eye piece cover is that it was tough to put on. Once I finally got it on fully, with a click, I couldnt take it off too easily. In my attempt to remove it, one side broke, but only a piece of it. It came off then and since it is only a cover for when your not actually looking through the eyepiece to take a picture, it now fits on and off nicely! A happy accident. Battery life was quite good. Another good thing is that the 18mm - 55mm zoom lens gets me closer for macro shots better than the kit lenses for the 500. Good enough that I dont feel compelled to get a dedicated macro lens at this time. All in all the D60 is great. I am very satisfied with it. I highly recommend it if you are one of those getting into digital SLRs for the first time. You wont be disappointed.

Summary: Very happy.
Comment: I was a bit torn between this camera and the D80 which my friend has but, with the lower price, smaller size, and a VR kit lens I was sold on the D60. Last night I had a photo shoot in a night club for a birthday party. I love the sensor in the eye piece, i didn't mind not having the extra LCD screen, Also, I took over 400 pictures using mostly my internal flash with a jimmy rigged defuser, but my photos came out wonderful. the VR really helped to reduce low light noise when compared to my friends D80 with a kit 18-70mm lens. my battery lasted the whole night and still reads 3/4 full. I am very pleased in my decision to get the D60 for me it was perfect.
