Nikon D60 Review

Nikon D60CNET have reviewed the Nikon D60, an entry level DSLR with 10.2 megapixel sensor and 2.5 inch LCD (230,000 pixels).

Nikon’s D60 is a good example of the current breed of these dSLRs. It checks in with a healthy 10.2-megapixel CCD sensor, a slightly small-by-comparison 2.5-inch LCD, and an upgraded, optically stabilized kit lens. While those features are nice, the D60 falls behind the competition in several areas in terms of its specifications. The D60 performed well in our lab tests, showing a slight improvement over the D40x in its low-light shutter lag and RAW shot-to-shot times, but was a tad slower on start up, though it’s still plenty fast. As has been the case with other Nikon SLRs recently, the D60 does a very good job of keeping noise in check. However Despite modest improvements in performance and a couple of new features, Nikon’s D60 fails to impress and costs more than some competing models.

Nikon D60 reviewed at DP Review

Nikon D60DP Review have posted their in depth review of the Nikon D60, a user friendly entry level DSLR featuring 10 megapixel DX format CCD, 2.5 inch LCD (230,000 pixels), ISO range of 100 to 1600 (extendable to 3200), image stabilization and dual dust reduction technology.

They write: “Everything we said about the D40X remains true for the D60; great output that’s easy to achieve even for a total novice, thanks to an excellent exposure and metering system; fast, responsive operation; excellent ergonomics and an easy to master feature set that is just sophisticated enough to allow users to explore the more advanced aspects of photographic technique without being so over complex they can’t be bothered. We all found the D60 to be a camera that’s incredibly easy to like and one that’s surprisingly enjoyable to use. it’s still one of the most affordable cameras in its class and it represents the perfect ‘upgrade’ camera for anyone who has outgrown their digital compact camera and is looking to dip a first toe in the world of the digital SLR.
