D60 Camera Lenses

Choosing the right lens for your D60 camera can truly transform your photography experience, whether you’re capturing everyday moments, family gatherings, or exploring the scenic beauty of Canada in the summer months. The D60 is compatible with a wide range of Nikon F-mount lenses, including both DX-format (APS-C) and FX-format (full-frame) options. For those who enjoy the convenience of autofocus, it’s important to look for AF-S or AF-I lenses, as these have built-in focus motors that work seamlessly with the D60’s autofocus system. If you have older AF lenses without a built-in motor, you’ll still be able to use them, but focusing will need to be done manually—a rewarding process for those who appreciate a hands-on approach and want to slow down and savour each shot. The D60’s 3D colour matrix metering system offers accurate exposure with most lenses, but if you’re using manual focus glass, you may need to rely on manual mode and stop-down metering, especially when experimenting with vintage or specialty lenses.

When selecting a lens, consider the type of photography that excites you most. In July, with the long daylight hours and vibrant outdoor scenes, a versatile zoom lens is ideal for capturing everything from wide landscapes at the lake to spontaneous street photography during summer festivals. Portrait enthusiasts might gravitate towards prime lenses with wide apertures for beautiful background blur and crisp subject detail, perfect for candid shots at backyard barbecues or family reunions. Wildlife and sports photographers will appreciate telephoto zooms that bring distant subjects closer, whether you’re photographing birds at a cottage or action at a local soccer game. For those new to photography or looking to expand their kit, the D60’s compatibility with a wide selection of lenses means you can start with a reliable all-purpose zoom and add specialized options as your skills and interests grow. Camera lenses also make thoughtful gifts for photography students, recent graduates, or anyone celebrating a milestone—imagine the excitement of unboxing a new lens and the creative possibilities it unlocks.

Before making a purchase, it’s wise to consider your budget and the condition of the lens if you’re shopping pre-owned. Used lenses can offer excellent value, allowing you to try out different focal lengths and styles without a significant investment. Always double-check compatibility, as not all F-mount lenses will provide full functionality on the D60. If you’re expanding your collection or comparing options for other camera models, you might also want to explore compatible lenses for similar cameras, such as those found on our D3200 Camera Lenses page. Whether you’re capturing the golden light of a summer evening or documenting special moments with friends and family, the right lens can help you tell your story with clarity and creativity.
