Extraordinary 10.2-Megapixel DX-format Nikon Picture Quality


Nikon's high-performance, 10.2-megapixel DX-format CCD imaging sensor and exclusive EXPEED image processing concept provide added cropping freedom and the ability to make larger prints.



Includes AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR (Vibration Reduction) Image Stabilization Lens

NIKKOR lenses are famous for breathtaking sharpness and faithful color. With Nikon's fast, accurate autofocus and Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization technology built in, pictures are even sharper, free from blur caused by camera shake when shooting hand-held.



Fast Startup and Split-Second Shutter Response

With fast startup and split-second shutter response, the D60 eliminates the frustration of shutter delay, capturing moments that other cameras miss.



Shoot Continuously at up to 3 Frames per Second

Capture sports action, precious moments and fleeting expressions at up to 3 frames per second, for as many as 100 consecutive JPEG images.



8 Digital-Vari Program Automatic Shooting Modes

Eight Digital Vari-Program Modes include: Auto, Auto Flash-OFF, Portrait, Landscape, Child, Sports, Close Up and Night Portrait; each of which adjusts automatically for optimal results for everyday shooting situations. Each mode considers lighting conditions and possibilities, aperture, shutter speed, white balance, hue, tone, sharpening and more to make creative photography as simple as rotating the mode dial.



Nikon's Smallest Digital SLR Ever!

Beautifully styled, the D60 makes high-performance digital SLR photography easier and more convenient than ever. You'll be amazed at the power packed into a camera that weighs just over 16 ounces.





Nikon 3D Color Matrix Metering II

The D60's 3D Color Matrix Metering II evaluates each scene for brightness, color, contrast, size and position of shadows and highlights, selected focus area and camera-to-subject distance, comparing that information against an onboard database of more than 30,000 actual photographic scenes. The result delivers instantly and precisely determined exposures for each scene, even in challenging lighting conditions.



Image Optimization Options

The D60's Optimize Image setting lets photographers adjust color, contrast and sharpening, as well as other image settings, according to the type of scene or output desired. Settings include: Normal, Softer, Vivid, More Vivid, Portrait, Custom and Black and White, each of which are automatically adjusted based on sophisticated Nikon algorithms or user-selected settings for optimum results.



Built-in Speedlight with i-TTL Automatic Flash Control

Nikon's innovative i-TTL flash control evaluates flash exposure with incredible precision to achieve better automatic flash balance and deliver outstanding results. The built-in Speedlight is always at the ready and brings beautiful exposures in darkened conditions, as well as adding sparkle for fill flash in outdoor situations for enhanced twilight shots or an added impact to daylight images. In low-light or back-light situations, added illumination from the built-in Speedlight can make the difference between an average snapshot and a dazzling picture.




Up to 500 Images per Battery Charge

The supplied EN-EL9 rechargeable battery will allow for shooting up to 500 images per charge based on CIPA battery testing standards.

    Excellent Entry Level DSLR

    By jr  Sep 7, 2008 | 12 out of 13 found this Nikon D60 (Black) review helpful

    Pros: Self Cleaning Sensor, Easy to use, Great Results

    Cons: No Auto Bracketing Feature, Limited to AF-S or IF lenses,

    Overall this is a great entry level DSLR. I have gotten great results with it and have seen a substantial improvement in my photography. The fact that I am limited to lenses that have internal focusing built into them (AF-s or IF lenses) is a bit ann...oying, but there are so many lens choices available, even third party companies such as sigma, make compatible lenses for the nikon D60 that this is becoming less of an issue. The self cleaning sensor is also a very good feature of the D60. Read more Less

    Great camera

    By Soonerfan  Dec 28, 2008 | 10 out of 11 found this Nikon D60 (Black) review helpful

    Pros: Easy to use and everything else

    Cons: Husband hates his picture taken

    Got this as a Christmas present and have already filled a 4gb memory card. Can't quit taking pictures. Can't wait to try it out at my kids sporting events. And the quality of picture is just spectacular. I love this camera. Can't find any...thing I don't like about it. And the place where my husband bought gives free classes to help you learn even more about the camera. Read more Less
