Having used the D60 for many months, I cannot truly say that its crap, however for the amount of cash, I really recommend looking at different models.

It is now discontinued and there is good reason for it. File sizes are more than adequate however auto white balance settings are a bit dodgy and trying to get it to focus in low lighting conditions is a nightmare.

The film speed setting is also quite disappointing, even though it goes up to 1000 asa it really shouldnt be pushed further than 400 as the results are diabolical,

The D60 is now very cheap but I wouldnt recommend one unless you are using controlled studio lighting constantly,

Try out the 20D that has just been released and I think you will see the benefit of spending that little extra cash, for similar file sizes but with so much more technology, i have found that I do not suffer as badly with the whites being bleached out with this model, and to be honest just general handling of the 20D is superior.

Basically the D60 is not bad BUT there is better out there for a little more money. If you do decide to go for a D60 shop around, it is now dated and I dont think you should be paying more than £500-£600 for one
