Nikon D60: 10.2 MegaPixel Prosumer Infrared-Enabled Camera 

Models: 

XNiteNikonD60          IR+Visible+UV

XNiteNikonD60IR      IR-Only

XNiteNikonD60HR    HR (High Resolution / Hot Rod)

This camera has been discontinued and replaced by the Nikon D90.

 

 

The Nikon D60 is a prosumer digital SLR camera.  Because of the nature of the IR enabling modification, we do not recommend this camera to anyone who does not fully understand the implications of the modification.  This camera offers great IR sensitivity, dynamic range and low noise. 

We can modify this camera to be IR+Visible+UV,  IR-Only and High Resolution (HR) . An IR+Visible+UV camera will see both Infrared, Ultraviolet and Visible light after modification.  An IR-Only camera will only see IR from 715nm through 1200nm.  The IR-Only camera has an internal 715nm IR filter with an antiflection coating.  The 715nm filter performs similarly to the Hoya RM72 and Wratten 89B.

Please note that this model does not have a drive motor to autofocus lenses.  You need to make sure you are using a AF-S or AF-I CPU type lens which have autofocus motors built in.

We can modify your D60 for $450 + return S&H ($20 UPS ground insured domestic USA).  Turn around is 1 or 2 days from receipt.  We only need the camera and charged battery for testing along with a cover letter specifying the conversion type.
