The D40x upgraded version!
|
This is the 2008 upgraded version of the D40x.
First if you are new to DSLR and you wish to buy a new camera, then you are spot-on.
If you wish to upgrade from the D40 or D40x (as I am) you need to consider the reason for your upgrade.
Reason 1- Is it for taking better quality pictures?
Reason 2- Or, found out you are stepping to the advance photography level and you want an upgrade from your D40/40x?
Answering reason 1:
Yes, This camera will produce a better photos than the D40x for the following reasons;
- Active D-lightning (No more underexposed photos).
- The new Expeed sensor (as in the D300)
- The new VR Lens which produce sharper images.
- The Dust reduction is a big plus
- supporting 4GB SDHC cards.
Answering reason 2:
The D60 camera does not have the following:
- No DOF preview
- No Bracketing
- Does not trigger speed-flash remotely such as SB-600/800
- Mirror Lock-up (for taking super steady shots)
- only three active focus points.
- only one Command dial
- No Build in AF motor (limiting the amount of lenses you use)
It is not necessarily to have any of the above (specially to amatures and beginners) and you can always have a work around those features. however, when you get to a level that you work in a pro environment and you need least fail factor while taking shots or the ability to work within a studio environment. then yes, you need the above features even more. and this D60 is not the right upgrade for you.
I just want to make it clear for those who want to upgrade or before buying a new DSLR. because if you are new, and you feel one day you will get to the advance level (or, least becoming an obsessed amature) I prefer you invest on a D300 or atleast a D80.
other than that, this camera is the best DSLR I ever saw targeting the entry level photographers. |
