Reviews The D90 offers great photo quality in an easy to use consumer style camera. The camera accepts our older pro lenses with mechanical auto focus as well as the newer AF-S version lenses. I can tell a difference in the new CMOS sensor as higher ISO photos are much clearer. Highly recommended for someone that wants a smaller DSLR with big camera performance. I mostly taking pictures indoor with no flash, jpeg only. After 4 months of heavy usage, here are what I think about the D90. Pros: - Taking great looking pictures. Color is more accurate than Canon (and for those who like Canon color, D90 can be tuned to give that punchy color) - Great high ISO performance - AF assist light (Much better than Canon way of flashing your subject to death) - Menu is highly customizable - Most peope might not noticed that, but the in-camera chromatic aberration removal is very effective Cons: - CCD comes with a price: hot pixels. The sensor developed hot pixels within the first 3 months. You need to send the camera to Nikon for remap or use software to remap. Some competitors are already doing that in-camera... - Supports from Nikon is lacking. Come on, still no firmware update? - Useless video (doesn't bother me at all) - Longing for more focus points - Not as good jpeg output as Canon. Canon is doing a much better job here - No AF micro adjustment. My 50mm prime is a little bit front focus. It would be nice to have this feature instead of sending the lens back I have really enjoyed learning photography with this tool. Enough options to keep the learning continuous; simple enough to set a few things and have a great weekend shooting photos. The Nikon image managing software is a great value as well. This camera is fantastic for wide range of still shots. However, it took me a long time and lots of investigating to understand why all the videos I shot were out of focus. It's because there is NO autofocus in the video mode. This is NOT described anywhere in my user's manual. Buyer beware!!!! There are ways around this if you have enough light and a subject that stays the same distance from the camera, but I find using the LCD to confirm focus manually is very difficult. Even when I preset the focus before turning on liveview, I am not confident looking at the LCD that it is really in focus. Any point and shoot camera with a video feature will do better for quick little videos than the D90. (We have 2 such cameras in the house that are foolproof and they aren't even video cameras). We bought this camera for our son who is 23 and a talented photographer. He has an assortment of lenses and takes professional quality pics with it. It's your basic Nikon that has endless possibilities. Sonny boy loves it!
