Sorry! Another camera question.

I just bought a used Nikon D60 camera with a standard 18-55mm. lens in excellent condition for $440.00. I did a little research and I think I got a good deal. What do you think? Anyone own this model? If so, how do you like it when it comes to taking coin photos? Thanks!

    Had a D40 with that same lens on it and found it to be great for whole slab images but lacking in the close up work. I got a Nikon Nicor manual focus 105mm lens and used that for the close work.
    As with most DSLR's the more you practice the better you get but I have found the lighting has almost as much to do with getting good images as the camera.
