Nikon D60

Zitat: Recommended Pros: + Small and beautiful. Goldilocks approved: not too small, not too big, not too light, not too heavy. + Most of what you need. While it would have been nice to have a DOF Preview button and bracketing, most everything else you´re likely to want is there, including spot metering and sensor cleaning. + Excellent Image Quality. State of the 10mp art. Enough said. Cons: - Not much new. Would I upgrade from a D40x to a D60? No, the changes just aren´t substantive enough. - Nother new battery. Did we really need another new battery just because the camera is a smaller size? - Not for those with a closet full of older AF lenses. If you´ve got mostly older AF lenses and are just now getting round to going digital, the D60 isn´t the camera you want, as you´ll be resorting to manual focus. Yes, these ratings are slightly tougher than the ones I gave for the D40/D40x (which will be revised when I redo the site).

Zitat: Pro: Hervorragende Bildqualität (vor allem Rauschen, geringe Artefakte), umfangreiche Bildbearbeitungsoptionen in der Kamera (u.a. RAW-Entwicklung) Contra: Nur drei AF-Felder, vergleichsweise langsamer AF, keine Belichtungsreihen, kein Live-View, AF-Betrieb nur mit Objektiven mit Motor

Zitat: The Nikon D60 is a perfect choice for newcomers to digital SLRs. Alternatively, as it offers excellent image quality, familiar Nikon menu systems and good scope for manual controls at a budget price, it would also be a favourable, lightweight back-up model for more seasoned photographers. Thoughtful set-up means you can operate the camera in full Auto when conditions are tricky, but at the flick of a switch there´s plenty of manual power and responsive operation if you want to take a bit more control. Exceptional value for money and great fun to use.
