Great camera
I've had it since 2009 and it delivers fantastic photos. Definitely recommend it.

Great Entry Level DLSR Camera
Purchased this camera in April '09 and I am still in love with it. I did have a small issue with the light meter over exposing, but sent it in under warranty and it has worked flawlessly since.
This was my first foray into digital and at first found all the functions daunting. I purchased a book on the D60 and also attended a Nikon class (came free with purchase). With some practice I have been taking some fantastic pictures. The nice thing about digital is you can take lots & lots of pictures and then just delete the ones that don't come out well.
I have since bought some different lenses - tele and wide angle and with each one a new world opens up.
I have traveled quite a bit with it and it hasn't let me down.
Also get the remote shutter release so you can get in the picture too. :)

Nikon Newbie
This is my first DSLR camera. I have been amazed by the quality of the pictures and ease of use. I would highly recommend this camera. It has whetted my appetite for wanting to learn more about digital photography.

Reliable and Efficient
My Nikon D60 has been very reliable for me, I have owned it for over 2 years. Whenever I take it with me, it never lets me down. The cameras picture quality is just amazing and makes portraits and landscapes easy to work with. Even though this camera only has a 3 point AutoFocus, it is still easy to work with and is good for anyone looking for a reliable and perfect starter camera, it will not disappoint.

A traditional SLR without the film.
I bought this to replace an old, faithful Contax film SLR that had finally had it. My mission? a digital camera as close to what I was replacing as possible...and after having had the D60 for a few years, I still think it is just that.
Minimal, no extraneous plastic bulk (canon, I'm looking at you), and all the features you'll ever need, without all the complication of too many buttons (that don't do a heck of a lot).
This camera got me through art school, and is serving me well in my travels and current jobs, (including some semi-professional photo work).
Cheers Nikon!

Make sure you have good lighting, and have your shutter speed to a fast enough speed. You may want to start off by simply practicing with the action feature on your camera, which will be on your dial and will look like a man running.

Why does my NEF image quality appear dark and grainy on my computer (even using Capture NX) when they appear fine in the D60's digital display?
I don't know if something has changed on my camera or my computer, but in the past couple of months I've noticed that pictures I take in NEF look great in the camera, but when I download them on the computer they look dark, grainy and splotchy and I have to really work on them in Capture NX to make them look right. This does not seem to be the way it should work. Any help?

Answers
Answer:
Nikon offers two types of autofocus digital camera bodies: those with a built-in focus drive motor and those which require a lens to have a motor. Cameras such as the D60 do not have a focus motor in it so they require the lens to have the focusing motor – an “AF-S” lens. While these bodies can use a lens with no focus motor (an “AF” lens) you would have to manually turn the focus ring to bring the subject in to sharp focus.The compatibility with the teleconverter is with the lens not with the camera body.

Answer:
The preference between each camera type really comes down to one of (a) flexibility and the potential for higher image quality versus (b) portability and simplicity. This choice often isn't a matter of which is right for a given person, but which is better for a given shooting environment and intended photo use.Compact cameras are much smaller, lighter, less expensive and less conspicuous, but SLR cameras allow for a shallower depth of field, a greater range of subject styles and the potential for higher image quality. Compact cameras are probably better for learning photography, since they cost less, simplify the shooting process and are a good all-around option for capturing many types of scenes out of the box. SLR cameras are much better suited to specific applications, and when size and weight aren't important.

Answer:
Birds a careful creatures, they never let you get too close, so you'll need a lens with as much magnification as possible. The massive 400-600 mm lenses are generally cost prohibitive, but the 70-300 VR is quite a good lens for under $1000.00. Better yet is the 80-400mm Nikon zoom. Long lenses like this tend to magnify the effects of camera shake so a sturdy tripod will be required for either lens. For the very best results, use a cable release as well. Even if the bird is a little smaller than you wish in the photograph, don't forget you have millions of pixels at your disposal to crop with. Happy Shooting!Frank
