Following on from Nikon’s professional models at the end of last year, February saw the arrival of a new entry-level model in the form of the Nikon D60. The 16th DSLR to come from Nikon, the D60 is pitched at newcomers to digital SLRs and sits in the Nikon range between the D40x and D80.
The D60 is available in a kit with a Nikon standard 18-55mm zoom lens for £499.99, or with a newly developed 18-55mm VR (Vibration Reduction) lens for £539.99. Personally, I would opt for this set up, as unlike cameras from Pentax, Olympus and Sony, for example, Nikon doesn’t provide in-camera image stabilisation.
