    I owned a Nikon F90X for about 8 years. I have used this camera for a wedding photography several times as a pro and it did a fantastic job. I am using it with Nikon sb28 speedlight, which is one of the best flashes I have ever owned, very reliable.
    If you are looking for a light build camera, this is not one of them. Nikon F90x body is on the heavy side, but I like heavier cameras. The shutter is loud, so it can be disturbing in certain situations-like the weddings, but that's the way this cam ...

    I love the feel, weight and sound of this camera. Sound means alot to me. I realise that sound has no bearing on how wonderful a photo can be, but it does provide a comfortable feeling to hear the shutter click as it does. I think that the N90s to me is like an older car that does not do what this years models can do, but it sure is alot of fun driving it around. I can access all of the features of the N90s, simply and intuitively. I have owned the N90s for about 2 years and it has never let ...

    The Nikon N90S is a great camera. State of the art metering. Faster & accurate auto-focus.Superb build.This is all time great Nikon.I own F-5, F100, F4S & N90S. F-5 has 3D color matrix metering & N90S has 8 segment matrix metering, both are great metering but some situations N90S gives more acceptable results than F-5. In backlit scene if your subject is too small then you need to use compensation or flash. This strategy is same with the F-5.
    . N90S is enough rugged for professional punishment ...

    I have bad experience with image centering in the view finder. At times, auto DX coding does not work. Obviously this camera is not built for Close up work.

    Well, what can I say, excellent camera, reliable, fast, sophisticated, with lots of features and a vast array of accessories. Of course will be your talent and the lenses who will make the big difference in the quality of your pics, but a good camera body like this is always recommended!
    It gives its best with the MB-10 grip and the MF-26 back, otherwise there will be few differencies with a much cheaper F-801s. Anyway, I am really satisfied, and you will be too if you buy it!

    I bought this camera about two years ago and used it with a Nikon N90 and N8008s. I recently bought an F5 so the N90s is a backup. I have traveled several times to Europe and to National parks, dropped it once onto concrete with no damage (verified by Nikon service), have had it in dust, rain and snow and it just keeps working. I do not know what Nikon's plan is for the N90s now that the N80 is coming out but it is a bargain, a quality product and I really have enjoyed owning and using it.

    I really love this camera. It was my first venture into AF and the transition was painless. The matrix metering has spoiled me, but it also has spot and center-weighted as well. Used with an SB-26 Speedlight fill-flash is spot on! I use it w/ the MB-10 battery pack and it's still not that heavy. Prices are coming down almost daily, so the N90s or F90x is one of the best buys out there!

    It takes a while to get used to this camera, even after having a Nikon F50 previously. There are so many features it can detract from the art of taking good photos. My only criticism is with the auto focus. Perhaps I expect too much from it, but you can't just assume the subject will be in focus, especially with f5.6 or wider. Suspect I just need more practise :)

    Excellent camera.
