New lens for my camera! *pics!*

[Moesha]

I just ordered a Nikon DSLR. I ended up getting the D60 for now because I can afford the camera and more lenses right now rather than just the D90 and the lens kit that comes with it. I may decide to exchange it for the D90 once I try it out.

Unless you really, really want to shoot video, I'd go with the D80 over the D90. I have the D80 and adore it! I have a D40 too, which I also really like. The only substantive difference is the video in the D90--however, the autofocus doesn't work in video mode. Most of the reviews of the video mode aren't great. Give the D90 a couple months on the market and the price of the D80 will plummet! Similar to what Catlady711 said, bodies come and go, glass is forever! In a year or so, Nikon will release the D100 and even the D90 will be outdated! The lenses will still be good!

Be careful which lenses you get with the D60. Much like the D40, some lens will not be fully functional--no autofocus. Older Nikon lenses and third party lenses won't work, except in fully manual mode. My Sigma big zoom lens, which I love, is a total PITA on the D40!

I have the same lens these pics were shot with too! Nice pics!!
