Nikon D60 D-SLR Camera Any good?

[Jamie.T]

Hi guys, im just looking at getting into some photography, especially now with having 2 kids and i enjoy the outdoors, motorsports as well as r/c racing.

Ideally looking for a camera that can cope with taking fast moving 1:1 and r/c car shots as well as good white back rounded portrait shots.

So in essence i need a camera that will do all of this. Im currently looking on ebay at used cameras, the plan is in future to buy a new one, but dont want to spend too much until i know ill get the use from it.

Would you recommend the D60 or possibly something else?

Also, if i was to set-up a white back round and wanted lights in front and behind of screen, would the camera need to be able to trigger these via wire wireless, sorry for the newbie questions but i really have no clue.

Thanks in advance.
