Nikon D60 Pro Reviews

PC World‘s review Edit

This camera produces pleasing pictures, but it offers minimal improvements over the D40x for lots more cashola.

computershopper‘s review Edit

While the D60 isn’t a dramatic upgrade over the D40x, it’s still a good choice for an entry-level dSLR. It offers standout features, but still no live preview on the LCD, so be prepared to shoot everything using the optical viewfinder.

LetsGoDigital‘s review Edit

The quality is superb and being a photographer this can only make you happy. The price could also be a strong plus. At the moment of this review, the price is 100 Euros less than that of the biggest competitor, the EOS 450D. Apart from quality, price will also play a big role in your decision as to which camera to buy. In my opinion the Nikon D60 is absolutely a recommendable camera. The facts prove it; convincing image quality, a great deal of user's ease and an excellent price/quality ratio. I think it makes the D60 a highly attractive combination.

Steve's Digicams‘s review Edit

The new Nikon D60 is quite impressive for an entry-level dSLR, offering superb performance, great image quality, and multiple exposure options. The 3fps continuous drive mode (or 3.5fps in our testing), Sensor Cleaning system and onboard HELP Menu are distinct improvements for this soon to be popular camera.

PhotographyBLOG‘s review Edit

Where the D40x was essentially a 10 megapixel version of the 6 megapixel D40, the new D60 is a very slightly improved version of the D40x. The D60 retains the same core competencies - 10 megapixels, 3 point AF, 3D Colour Matrix Metering II, 3fps burst mode - whilst adding a small number of new features that are nice-to-haves, rather than being essential.

The Imaging Resource‘s review Edit

With the D60, Nikon continues what's been an exceptionally successful line of cameras reaching back to the D40 (which is still widely available in the market as of this writing (June, 2008) at very low prices). As a follow-on to the D40x, the Nikon D60 maintains most of the same specs and features, but adds a number of minor features in the camera body and a new, better-quality VR (vibration reduction) kit lens, all at a list price $50 lower than its predecessor.

www.trustedreviews.com‘s review Edit

I can't say this is my favourite of Nikon's cameras, the auto focus in particular is lacklustre, and there are a few niggles, such as the odd patch of underexposure. Overall though it's a good entry level model, which is easy and straightforward to use, with plenty more features under the hood to progress and improve your photography.

DigitalCameraReview‘s review Edit

The D60 capitalizes on the strengths of the D40 and adds a few innovative and useful improvements without tampering too much with the basic formula. The D60 (like the D40 and the D40x) is reasonably priced, robustly constructed, incredibly easy to use, and most important of all produces great images, even for absolute beginners.

Camera Labs‘s review Edit

The earlier Nikon D40x was an interesting proposition as it was essentially a D40 fitted with a 10 Megapixel sensor to better compete against Canon’s EOS 400D / XTi. Unfortunately, the D40x inherited several weaker aspects of the D40 which may have been acceptable at an entry-level price point, but which sat less comfortably when priced similarly to the Canon.

DP Review‘s review Edit

The D60 is the third incarnation of Nikon's compact, user-friendly entry-level SLR line that started back in 2006 with the D40 (which replaced the first Nikon 'starter' model, the D50). The original D40 was a hugely important camera for Nikon and can be given a lot of the credit for the resurgence in Nikon's fortunes at the volume end of the SLR market (which had been totally dominated by Canon since the launch of the EOS 300D / Digital Rebel).

CNET Reviews‘s review Edit

Despite modest improvements in performance and a couple of new features, Nikon's D60 fails to impress and costs more than some competing models.
