Nikon took their highly popular D60 SLR and gave it a classy new look. This Special Edition model features rich, gold accents and a special Gold Edition neck strap. The camera's 10.2-megapixel image sensor and sophisticated processing team up for beautiful high-res pictures. Plus its lightweight, user-friendly design makes digital SLR photography fun and easy.
Fast, responsive handling
If you've ever missed a perfect photo opportunity because your digital camera just couldn't keep up, you'll appreciate the D60's quickness. Its near-instant startup time, split-second shutter response, and speedy autofocus make it ready to snap crisp, in-focus shots almost as soon as you turn it on. Save your photos to optional SD memory cards (no memory included).
Nikon's new dust reduction system
The D60's self-cleaning sensor unit vibrates to efficiently remove dust from its surface ensuring that your images remain spot-free. A special airflow control system also helps to divert any dust inside the camera away from the sensor preventing particles from settling on interior surfaces.
A bright, clear display and helpful features
Nikon's thoughtful design and attention to detail make the D60 a pleasure to operate. The large, crisp 2-1/2" LCD monitor gives you a clear view of the pictures you've taken. When you turn the camera upright to shoot a tall subject, the menus automatically rotate for easy viewing. And Nikon's handy "Help" function lets you read a brief explanation of the custom functions on the camera great for folks who are just getting the hang of advanced photography, and for experts who don't want to carry around the manual.
Lots of cool extras
Fully automatic and preset shooting modes make it super-easy to capture vivid, accurately exposed photographs. Use Nikon's Active D-Lighting in tricky, high-contrast lighting conditions. This mode preserves important photographic details that otherwise might be washed out in brightly lit areas of your picture, or lost in deeply shadowed ones. A wide variety of in-camera options let you retouch and enhance the look of your images, while leaving the original picture file intact. There's even a fun shooting mode that lets you create a stop-motion movie from a series of consecutive photos.
