      How does this one compare with Canon XTi or even XSi? I was debating, and this price is really tempting me now.

      isn't the D90 rumored to come out soon, one should buy this and flip the D60 over into a D90... realistically speaking, you might end up with a 06D

      funny

      when you move into the dslr cameras, even the entry level ones give you a lot better pictures than a point and shoot.

      the d60 is only a slight upgrade from the d40x from nikon. the d60 is just a model refresher for the d40x. it has good color renditions and functions. but personally i would prefer the XSi to the D60.

      the xsi has a 3.0" screen along with LiveView (you can use the LCD as a viewfinder, like that of a P&S). the d60 only has a 2.5" and no liveview. there are quite a lot more advantages to the XSI compared to the D60, but in any case, if you purchase between the two model, you will still get a great entry level DSLR.

      Thanks. XSi on Amazon.com for $800 will be the winner for me.

      #5 Don't know what product that is rating, but two reviews gave the camera 5 and 4 stars out of 5 respectively. http://shop.resellerratings.com/FD-0/PD-51343781/rvw-1

      Give this a month and the set will be $400
