Nikon D60 Digital Camera

Do you have any tips/tricks for producing good quality water drop pictures with a Nikon D60?

I would like to know, as these types of pictures have always been the subject much of beauty and interest! Thank you!

Use macro mode default with a perfect macro lens package,.then u have to set u r shutter 4000 or 8000 shutter/sec for a faster movement shots,.turn on multi shot mode set in 5 or 10 shots per second,.then start to click on drops u will get it well.

Nikon D60 digital camera review by Nigel Atherton, editor of What Digital Camera monthly magazine www.whatdigitalcamera.com More camera reviews ...

I heard that every nikon lens would fit it and i don't care about auto-focus.

Yup, pretty much any SLR lens by Nikon, except the Pronea (Advantax) lenses and some weird fish eyes. With very old lenses, you have to use Manual Mode only. They have no metering, and you have to adjust the shutter speed, aperture, Focus and ISO setting by itself.

Lenses marked AF or AF-D will meter with the D60, but they won't focus

Lenses marked AF-I or AF-S will work great!

However, you can still set the focus point with manual focus lenses and rely on the little dot in the viewfinder to find perfect focus. Also, the D60 has a rangefinder that can be used with lenses produced after 1977.

Improved EOS HD Video mode with manual exposure control; Vari-angle 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor

I really want a nice digital SLR camera. I can spend about $800. Does anyone own the Nikon D60? If you do, do you like it?

If you don't, can you recommend something else in that price range? Thanks!

The D60 is a good entry level DSLR. I am a Canon user and have never used the D60. I have used the D40, D80 and D300 cameras though. Nikon makes very good cameras and lenses. You can't go wrong with any of them. If you want to look at a comparable camera check out the Canon Rebel XS or XSi. These are the Canon models closest in price and performance to the D60. When it comes down to it they are very similar. It really depends on which one feels best in your hands and has the features you want.

in "raw" format and i need to know a way to view them

i used raw cos its the best quaility

To view RAW you usually need to open it in a suitable program such as lightroom or photoshop. Use the software that came with the camera,it's still called Nikon View? There are add ons to your windows that allow you to view the RAW files as you would view a JPEG....
is one example.... Try this or Google 'view raw in windows' to see more options.
