>>227992 The XT is missing some features that more expensive models have, but the D60 doesn't even have an autofocus motor. It will only autofocus with lenses that smaller cameras, which is also a good thing. A problem arises, though, when you try to buy off-brand lenses, as many are either not available for the system . There is also the issue where, because these offbrand lenses are designed for larger sensors and are supposed to provide an even wider field of vision, cameras you'll be buying a huge ass lens to only use about, say, 30% of the lens. What I mean is, you'll be getting a lens 60% larger than it needs to be for whatever purpose. For example, on canon or nikon, a 50mm 1.8 lens on full frame is pretty much the "standard" lens, and is in fact pretty small. When you want to buy an equivalent for 4/3rds, you'll be buying a huge ass 24mm F1.8 by sigma, which is 4 times more expensive and almost twice as big.... and mount it on a tiny camera. Enough with the rant about Olympus.
About Sony, I frankly don't know how well they're doing nowadays, but at the beginning their sensor/processing technology was strongly criticized, pointing out that their cameras actually applied noise reduction to .raw files (when they shouldn't) and, indeed, produced -very- noisy images, despite using the same sensor technology as Nikon. Their bodies have a wide feature set for their price, but the fact is that their lenses are also way overpriced next to the competition. inb4Gglassbullshit. With Sony's form factor and pricing and image quality, they really seem to be like the camera world's modern Hummer H3's. Huge, with too much sauce, overpriced, and shitty. But that's my opinion.
