It is you manual setting in White Balance. Look at your EXIF Data on a blue image.

White Balance: Warm-white fluorescent, 0, 0

First, there's a free online video from Nikon at

Nikon also has a DVD for dSLRs in general, normally available at http://www.nikonmall.com/ I'm afraid I can't give you a specific link since they're down for maintenance until tomorrow.

Blue Crane Digital has a nice DVD:

Lark Books has a nice multimedia guide (book&DVD):

You could set the white balance to the full sun setting. You could set the ISO to a lower number. You could set the "exposure compensation" to a lower number.

The only reason the camera will be taking dark photos is when it is under exposing the image taken. This can be due to the exposure compensation set to under expose the metered exposure. Make sure the expsosure compensation is set to '0' or increase it to compensate for the dark photos.

Also inaccurately metering a scene (such as a high contrast scene) can easily fool the meter into under exposing, especially outdoors.

Try to take off the battery and reset the camera. You can also try to remove the lens and check the mirror opening..see if there is some thing stuck there. You can try to click the shutter while the lens is removed. If this procedure didn't work I suggest calling Nikon for further repairs.

You need to press the Disp/Display button to remove the settings on the display.

My guess is that you have a dust spot in the camera on the mirror. This is not a user fixable ptoblem unless you are very well versed on camera repair. I would take to a camera store and have them clean the mirror.

The d60 needs Auto focus lenses(Ones with motors inside the lense) it doesn`t autofocus on other lenses. this was done to reduce the price of the camera body

Hope this helps

change the white balance in the menu to more apprpriate in the situation you are...or put it to auto.

it would depend on the lighting. you can lower down your shutter speed, or change the white-balance or aperture on the camera. make sure that your camera is set on manual. hit me back on the results.
