The D60 is very easy to use and would recommend it to anyone who's just starting out and needs something more than a point and shoot.
This was my first DLSR camera and I love it. Easy to use and and takes excellent photos.
My first DSLR, that was bought for me as a gift. It is still clicking and has served me well. I have had it for about 4 years. Light and fits in my hand easily. I take a lot of kids soccer pictures with it. I am hoping to one day upgrade to a D610!
