    This camera has many of the qualities we expect from Nikon – responsiveness, excellent ergonomics and consistent image processing – in a lightweight body. On its own terms it is a fine camera and no doubt will retail for considerably less than its RRP. For anyone who is content with the kit and has no aspirations to own better lenses and couldn’t care less about exposure bracketing – in other words wants the simplest DSLR – then the D60 is a winner.

    Once upon a time if you were after a digital SLR your decision was relatively simple. There were a handful of models, usually two or three, from a select few companies, and probably only one or two of them were in your price range.

    • Sharp pictures, great colour, Active D-Lighting, dust reduction, low price, comfortable to hold
    • Some minor chromatic aberration issues, no live view
