 The Nikon D60 offers a 10-megapixel APS-H sensor and an optically stabilized lens, all for an excellent, entry-level price. As always, Nikon has designed the D60's body within an inch of perfection, and the camera has all the prosumer features that you'd expect of DSLR, including a fast burst-mode and full RAW support. Image-quality wasn't quite as exemplary as the camera's particulars - there were some major diffraction issues - but overall detail, color, and noise were excellent, and Nikon's 'D-Lighting' remains a great dynamic-range booster. All in all, the D60 could be a superb introduction to DSLRs. Release: April 2008. Price: $750.
Pros: Bundled with new VR lens. Fast operation. Good overall image quality, especially for the price. Great body.
Cons: Severe diffraction in some cases. Narrow ISO range.
