Blast from the past.

I was given a used D60 in great shape today. It's kind of neat to see where technology has come from in the last 10+ years. My first DSLR was actually a D60, gave it to a friend to learn on. I went from the D60 to the 40D, 50D, several rebels and now a 60D. I'm kind of excited to go back and see what I really learned over the years, what I can accomplish with older technology. I've also acquired a Pentax K-X to try out different formats. If I have really evolved or just used the new technology as a crutch to get what I need. Comments or thoughts welcome.

Have fun shooting with a dinosaur and let us see some of those shots.

a part of me always wanted a pentax system...

Very cool! Be sure to share the shots you take with it!

Will do. I have to round up an old CF card first.

You might be pleasantly surprised at what the "OLD" 6 meg sensor can do - they produce very sharp images.

A bit like comparing a Honda CBR1000RR to a 1978 Ducati 900SS.

I love older Italian V-twins

Ducati's rock!

Yes they do. I'm more of a Moto Guzzi LeMans fan. I've owned two.

This.

I'm always surprised when I go back and look at the raw files from my 8mp 20D.

The 20D can produce some pretty impressive RAW files.

Yep, same can be said about my old XT.

One test shot. I like it so far, again.
