There is one flaw in what this person says. (He is calling it a FAQ 
after all!) He says the Canon D10 and D300 blow away the D60 in terms 
of image quality. That's nonsense. The D60 and D10 and D300 all have 
the same sensor. The latter two are better in autofocus, and the D10 is 
more rugged, but I use the D60 and D300. They are identical in image 
quality.
