I have no concerns re the grey market, just have to make sure you do your research. 6 years ago I purchased a $2000 Konika Minolta A2 direct from HK via ebay for $1200 and its been a great camera.Quote:

I did not have much time in having a look a comparo between the D60 and the d3000 which it is advertised for $ 699 and posible after negotiating can get a better deal.
Have a look HERE
If the D3000 is the model that replace the D60 then the D60 should be available for less than $ 600 if you look in the web.

$399 with kit lens.
I'd give them a call first to discover what the damage is, but sure sounds cheap.Quote:
FACTORY 2ND
Appliances in perfect working order, they may have a cosmetic blemish, be factory reworked, an ex display model, or just have a 'tiny ding' incurred during transit.
I'm looking at a D60 body only. I was reading a review and the comparison on specs they had up stated that the D60 does not do bracketing, which sounds strange to me. Can anybody confirm this?
That it is correct and also remember that Nikon has chosen not to install a focus drive in the camera body. This means that the range of auto-focus lenses available for the camera is very limited.Quote:

At those prices get a used D200. My dad has one and you can see the difference in picture quality between it and my Sony A100.

As I understand it the Nikon's (D60 anyway) have the AF drive in the lens, not the body. So I assume that the len's would be significantly dearer than say the equivalent for a Canon?
Does matter which type of lens you select, the Canon lens are heaps cheaper.Quote:

The problem with the last models of Canon is that they have heaps of faults.
If you can get a 40D with little use then you will save heaps on the big lens.
If you only think in wide lens and telephoto lens up to 200mm them Nikon is the way to go. Far superior bodies.
The Nikon D300 is heaps better than the Canon 50D.
Read THIS review (which is very good) and you will know where you stand with the D60
