Verdict
Pick the Nikon D3000 if you want higher resolution and a much lighter body for the same budget. The Canon EOS D60 stays the better choice only if you specifically need a slightly earlier model for compatibility with older accessories or software. Both are equally limited by their 3 fps burst and lack of stabilization.
