We have had the opportunity to briefly test the Nikon D60 with the new AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G Vibration Reduction (VR) kit lens. We have published a few sample images taken with a Nikon D60 (Firmware A 1:00, B 1:00) under a range of ISO sensitivity settings and exploring some of the available options on the camera.
Featuring the identical overall body design to the Nikon D40x, the controls and menus on the Nikon D60 are equally well laid out and easily accessible making for user friendly operation.
In most situations the Nikon D60 can be left in automatic / default modes with confidence. Ideal for more novice users. For those that desire more creative control the Nikon D60 offers custom options for setting exposure, image processing and autofocus modes. The Nikon D60 Retouch Menu is also a handy feature that allows for some convenient quick edits in camera (same as the Nikon D40X and D80, although now includes option for in-camera NEF / RAW conversion and adjustments).
