There is a mirror-lock up on this camera, and it is achieved simply by activating the self-timer. As a manual self-timer, I have enjoyed varying the time delay from 3seconds to 10 seconds. Brighton Towing Company

NO LIGHT METERING

A camera is nothing more than a dummy box and will perform at the skill level of the photographer. Back in the day cameras were manual everything, there where no fancy “auto this” or “auto that” gadgets built into the cameras, there weren’t even onboard light meters, photographers had to use a hand held meter or judge from experience to get proper exposure. This Nikon N60 was designed for ease of use and aimed at the amateur market when it was released. It’s a no frills camera, but it can do the job if you know a thing or two about what you are doing. I for one always shoot in manual everything I use a handheld meter as a matter of habit even in these digital days. No, this Nikon didn't set the world on fire, but it was never intended to do so. With some good glass, some decent film and a little knowledge this camera will perform as well as any 35mm film camera on the market as far as delivering sharp, usable crisp prints. It’s fast enough at 4000 to shoot sporting event and capture decent wildlife images, although some may find it tricky with the small auto focus zone, but it can be done. Look back on some great wildlife photos from the past, what do you think those photographers where using? Get the point? All in all this is a capable, easy to use, no frills camera.You can buy these dirt cheap in the digital age.

Well, the true weakness is always in the capability of the photographer.

I am not a professional photographer but shoot travel and portrait photography for 20 plus years. A few months ago a friend gave me this camera and he was basically shocked with the excellent results that I got out of it. I use manual focus ais lenses and the autofocus dot is surprisingly accurate with the dot confirmation. In aperture mode the center rated metering is extremely reliable. For portraits I take a couple of quick exposure reading in aperture priority mode and then use that to set up the shoot in manual mode and it is as good as any slr that I have used. Basically with good glass and some quality film stock this camera can be as good as any Nikon slr for portraits and landscapes albeit for a fraction of the price. I have seen professional fashion photographers use this camera as a backup. Highly recommend this if you already have Nikon glass; cheaper than a dslr full frame and another level when it comes to rendering natural skin tones and b&w prints. Possibly the best price point of any camera I know, perhaps next to the N90s series.

Unfortunately it only goes to 1/4000 sec unlike the f90 series that has 1/8000 second. Obviously not a sports camera or autofocus monster...(use your commen sense and just get agony mirrorless or DSLR!)

It reliably takes excellent images. Solid to hold. Excellent built-in flash that I can count on to give great night time shots indoors and outdoors. I have N8008S and N65, with all their extra functions, but with an AF. D or G lens the F60 does the job with no fuss. I have read the amateurs and experts’ condescending and damning reviews including Ken Rockwell’s “run as fast as you can” report. I take no notice, Who cares how many focus points it doesn’t have if a single focus point does it well.

None that bother me.

I can rely on my F60.

Sturdy, Crisp shots, good battery life.

Fragile, easily breaks. umm besides that happening great camera, but there has been know to break this way, its a defect but if it does break dont fix it, not worth it.

This camera was great when i first got it. Took clean and crisp shots, i loved how it sounded. It was all around and easy to use camera. I had it for a little more than a year and one day the auto focus broke and Nikon WANTED $135 to fix it!

Customer Service

Very rude, inconsiderate. Wanted to charge me the same amout to fix it as much as i paid for it.

Now i have the N80, ITS GREAT! i would recomend spend the extra money and get the N80.

Price Good Feel and Looks Powerful Built in flash with a good GN Preset programs. Very easy to use.

No Cable Release No Spot metering. No ISO setting

This is a very good camera for a beginner.I bought it when I decided to go from point and shoot cameras to SLR. I chose N60 as it was the least expensive.I have tried all kinds of lights and exposures and the pictures were phenomenal ( except the ones which were messed up by me).I would recommend to but a good lens with this and get rid of the Plastic lens that comes with it. As my skills are growing in photography I do feel that I should upgrade to another Nikon N90 or higher.I would still like to keep my N60 though.

Customer Service

Good.
