Nikon D40 vs D60

[i_got_a_mohawk]

There doesnt seem to be a great deal of difference between the models, any of you more camera savvy guys know if the D60 is worth the extra scratch?

The review you can find at FL's link addresses that question:

In short he said:

The D60 takes the successful formula established in the D40 / D40X and, well, if we're being honest, doesn't do a great deal with it at all - the leap from D40 to D40X was a lot greater than the step up from D40X to D60 (even if Nikon's naming convention might seem to imply the opposite). There's a few nice new features, and bundling the new 'VR' (stabilized) version of the kit lens is a smart move that makes the whole package a lot more appealing, but it's fair to say that the D60 is a subtle upgrade rather than a wholescale reinvention of Nikon's entry-level best-seller.

I'm diggin my D200. It's an amazing camera. It's the closest thing to a really high end 35mm film camera using the manual modes. The digital features are incredible as well.
