Talking what camera you rockin!?!

Im about to purchas a new nikon D60 and im pumped. Being in the Air force i travel alot and the ol' point a shot camera isnt cutting it anymore. Having taken a photagraphy class in highschool(even though the class sucked and we f-ed off most of the time) i know a few things about cameras, not as much dSLR. If anyone has imput or has a D60 please share what you think. or what camera are you rockin and how do you like it?

I have a Nikon D80 and it's pretty good. Low light sucks so im looking at upgrading to the D300s or something. However where i work now (Largest photography studio in my city) I get to play with really fun cameras like the Canon 5D mkII!

I've got couple of Nikons, the last one being the D90 before I merged onto the Canon world.

What is with everyone switching to Canon.


Anyways Krip if you wanna sell/trade me your D90 real cheap like (I mean straight up for my D60 that would be awesome)


I have a D60 if you couldn't tell, I like it well enough and it's a great started camera, but it lacks a few things that would make it a bit better in my eye, like faster FPS, more buttons to quickly change settings instead of having to go into the menu, the screw AF motor so my 50 prime would AF, etc.


But it's a great starter camera, I'm just gonna save up for the D700 or what ever it's replacement is by the time I can afford one so I have a good sports camera that is also sick with low light and everything else.
