Key Advantages

The Nikon D60 offers excellent image quality for an entry-level DSLR, making it suitable for beginners and enthusiasts. Its lightweight and compact design improve portability and ease of handling. The EXPEED processor enhances image processing speeds and delivers better noise reduction. The camera supports a variety of Nikon F-mount lenses, providing versatility in photography styles. Its user-friendly Guide Mode assists new users in mastering camera functions with step-by-step instructions. Additionally, the built-in Live View mode offers framing flexibility, adding convenience in composing shots.

Limitations

The Nikon D60 features a basic 3-point autofocus system, which can be limiting in fast-paced or complex photographing scenarios. It lacks video recording capability, which restricts its use to still photography only. The LCD screen resolution is relatively low compared to newer models, affecting image preview quality. It does not include an in-camera sensor cleaning system, which may require manual maintenance for sensor dust. The ISO range is limited compared to more modern cameras, reducing flexibility in very low-light environments. Additionally, there is no external mic input or flash sync options, limiting professional-level audio and lighting control.
