  • Abstract:  Great images despite a few blind spots. A worthy rival for the Canon at a slightly lower price. The D60 isnt Nikons most affordable DSLR - the venerable 6 megapixel D40 is cheaper - but its in direct competition with the other cameras here. It h...

  • For a start, the D60 gets a new dust-removal system, in line with most other digital SLRs on the market. It also has an eye-sensor just below the viewfinder eyepiece, which switches off the LCD when you put it to your eye.The other news is the arrival ...
