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.

LCD Monitor with 170-Degree Wide-Angle Viewing: Playback images are easy to see and function menus are easier to use with a larger and brighter color LCD monitor. The large 2.5-inch LCD monitor enables image preview at up to 19 times magnification and has large type fonts with easy-to-view menus.

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.

Image Optimization: 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.

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 ready to bring beautiful exposures to darkened conditions, as well as add sparkle for fill flash in outdoor situations for enhanced twilight shots or an added impact to daylight images.

Fast, Accurate 3-Area Autofocus: The D60’s advanced 3-Area AF system and the refined algorithms inherited from more advanced Nikon digital SLR cameras deliver fast, efficient and precise Autofocus. AF refinements deliver greater precision with fast, more consistent subject acquisition and improved focus tracking for consistently sharper pictures.

Nikon , a huge name in the world of digital SLR’s has unleashed its spanking new DSLR, the D60. Moreover, it’s seeking to attain the budget end of the top-notch snapper market.

It has a 10.2-meg sensor, a 2.5-inch LCD screen, vibration sensor cleaning and a body that comes in even slimmer than its older version the D40. Indeed, the D60 will be taking over the D40’s duties as Nikon’s flagship low ender.

There’s no Live View to be had here, so you’ll have to do with sticking your face right up to the camera if you want to see what’s going on. That is what makes it a bit cumbersome. So perhaps the new Canon 450D might be a better bet.

It’s due to be available somewhere around February, clocking in at £449 for the body only. Stick on a lens and you will end up dishing out either £499 or £529 depending upon the zoom lens you want.
