Re: Nikon D60 or Canon EOS 450D?
The Nikon D60 can only AutoFocus lenses that have built-in motors.Nearly all new AF lenses for Nikon have motors. Still, that might very well limit the lower end or used lens options for that body. And manually focusing, auto focus lenses, sucks.
I'm cheap, so such a limitation would be a deal breaker for me, but maybe not for you.
The Canon? Well, nobody ever got fired for buying Canon. 
I don't know, but I believe the Canon wins in every category except price. Lens Compatibility, Better high ISO performance, Better resale value, Live View! Digic III CMOS Sensor....
So, I'd say the Canon would be more satisfying and leave you with more head-room to grow into.
My 2¢

I'd noticed the difference in AF, but wasn't sure which way would be preferable. I'm also cheap (but I'd rather pay good money for good equipment than save money and get second rate gear.)

Thank you for the input. definitely worth more than $0.02 to me | |
