The Nikon D60 is a 10.2 megapixel digital single-lens reflex camera announced in January 2008. The D60 succeeds the entry-level Nikon D40x. The D60 features the Nikon EXPEED image processor introduced in the higher-end Nikon D3 and D300.

The list price of the D60 was announced as €749 in Germany.

New Features

Compared to the D40, new features of the Nikon D60 include:

Stop-movie Creation
Nikon EXPEED Processor
Self-cleaning sensor unit
Air-flow Control System
LCD Screen Orientation Rotation
Active D-Lighting (1 level)
Kit lens with optical image stabilization for same kit price as D40 before the Nikon D60 was released on February 24, 2008.

Continuity

The Nikon D60 body is very similar to the Nikon D40, with the placement of several key buttons being the most notable difference. Like the D40, the Nikon D60 has no secondary display on top of the body (common in higher-end DSLRs), but instead displays shutter speed, f-number, and other information on the main LCD screen.
