seems very good. at least the colors are well-retained at high ISOs. though such size is abit hard to spot any noise. however, i suppose most ppl won't view pics at full resolution.

Managed to finger one this afternoon at Vivocity. Love its ergonomic, size and weight as compared to its bigger brothers. Really not much difference from the D40/X, only the eyepiece, flat control knob and the Active D-lightning button tells them apart.

If only D80's functions can be incorporated into a D60's body! :thumbsup:

the rear panel LCD cum info screen has a damn cool function tho... ala Apple iPhone. the info will rotate based on the orientation of the camera (portrait or landscape).

Wait... You mean Nikon cameras didn't do this automatically anyway?

auto rotate for portrait shots, but not auto rotate display when switching from landscape to portrait mode

Oh ok. Kinda surprised they are only implementing it now.
