Wow, this is fantastic - thanks everyone!

In most respects I think the kit lens on my D40 (18-55mm... same as the D60?) is excellent but the focus ring is narrow and not set up to make fine adjustments.
Yes, that's what I have - hence my lack of success with manual focus. I'll keep trying at it, but I didn't want to be stuck with a lens I couldn't use yet. If it's the lens rather than me I might broaden my search a bit...

I was planning to have a look at second-hand stuff but didn't have a clue what I was looking for! Hopefully all this should give me a good starting point. I found three lenses for £50 at the market the other week but they didn't fit my camera - not impressed
