Yes I was very annoyed by the whining (or what I feel/felt was whining) with the K20/K200 introduction a couple days ago I prefered to stay away of it. But I wonder...
The D60 is out and a couple comments are needed IMO:
- D60 has no LiveView (idem K200)
- D60 has 10Mpix Sony sensor (idem K200) It of course explains why neither cameras provide LiveView
- LetsGoDigital says the D60 boasts very good noise levels. I do not see why the K200D would not be able to compete.
- D60 has "only" a 2.5" screen. K200 has a 2.7" one. Will people stop whining because no 3" screen?
- On the price PoV I did not see a D60 introduction price. But the K200 supposedly so expensive at 800 euros (with 18-55 II) is competitve with 450D at 850 euros (with 18-55 IS)
- Expanded Dynamic Range for the K200, not AFAIK for D60
- There are also acouple other differences like sealing, grip. Nikon has iso3200 etc
So what now, are you all (I'm targetting the unhappy ones here) still going to complain ? Or maybe you just wanna complain whatever the reason?
