Hi Guys do we have any Nikon D60 owners on board? Im thinking of buying one, but a little concerend on only a 3 point AF system. I hear it can be a little slow. Anyone here got any experience with the D60?
If that is the case i might save up a little more and end up going with a Nikon D80 or the Canon EOS 450D

I use a D80 and find I just use the centre AF focus point.

The other focus points come in handy whem I'm photographing fast jets.

By the way no problems with the D80, recommend it.

Hello Otto, welcome to the group.

Thanks OTTO,
Ive actually gone with the Nikon D80. With the 18-55 vr lens. According to the DHL website its left the office in london this afternoon and is sitting in Birmingham. So i should have it fingers crossed tomorrow.

Hello, mine came bundled on special offer with an 18-70.

I've heard good things about the VR lenses from airshow friends, and am going to trade in my Sigma 70-300. Should have gone VR in the first place, BIG mistake.

Recommend reading the handbook as the D80 has got stacks of 2in camera" manipulating features.

Happy snapping

Otto

Just charging the battery now.
The D80 is so comfortable. Im really looking forward to many years of improved imagery.
Im like a child at christmas,
