Opinions from Nikon D90 owners

MrRoboto · 03-24-2009, 09:26 AM

Hey folks. I am in the market for a new DSLR and am seriously considering the D90. Is their anything better at this price range? Can anyone provide any opinions on the D90?

TIA

the sensor is equal to that of the D300 - with High ISO performance being as good or better.
realize which features (physical and electronical) you may need that the camera lacks (vs. the next step up), because otherwise, it captures images with really high-quality. you won't be disappointed in that regard, i'm sure.
oh, and don't get it because of the video feature - it's useless on anything not static - unless you don't mind the rolling-shutter problem.

Nikon cameras, in my opinion, are less user friendly than Canons. My Nikon SLR camera failed on me on a important event and I ended up using my backup point and shoot camera. I didn't take a single shot with my Nikon.
