Nikon D90 a great camera, with all the features that needed for excellent photography. If we can understand the manual and try all the modes... you become an expert of photography... real good camera... I'd say this is the best when compared with D5100 and D7000 with in the budget

This camera makes me feel like I am a professional photographer! Never had so much fun with a camera and all my photos are really cool! Love the features.

Upgraded from D50 to D90 following a progression from total amateur to someone who was starting to produce decent shots and really enjoy it. D50 was great but lacked resolution if the image needed a little crop, and user friendliness for the enthusiast photographer was limited as many functions would only be alterable via the menu. The D90 has a host of dedicated buttons on the camera body to change ISO, AF mode, Flash, depth of field preview, metering mode, aperture AND shutter speed separately etc. The CMOS sensor renders images with beautiful accuracy but more importantly consistency across a range of shots in similar conditions. Never thought I would use higher ISO for macro shots, but the D90 has produced beautifully detailed images with no detectable noise at ISO 800 and more. Ability to create good photos has stepped up a notch. Downsides? At this price none. Perhaps the video, which I will not be using and have not yet tried but has received some criticism. Bought mine used - boxed as new - from MBP photographic for a bargain with part-ex on the D50 - consider it.

i had this camera for about 10 months. Its really amazing and i love all its features and setting. Its easy to use. it has video recording features which is perfect for user who want a camera with video recording features. Its 4.5 frame per second was good enough for my level. The size was just nice fit onto my palm. Noise was not very visible at high ISO. The kit lens 18-105mm which come with it was a perfect match. It have build in AF motor which allow me to use some of the old lens such as 50mm f1.8 to take great potrait picture.

I've had this camera for almost two months after a long overdue upgrade. I actually owned the EOS400D, but prefered the handling on Nikons after trying a few out.
It is a great camera coupled with the 18 - 200 VR lens and iso performance is as good as any camera at this price range.
I think the auto white balance often gets it wrong on this camera but it is easy to go manual and set it yourself.

White balance in Auto is a bit of a gamble at times - with any camera! This camera has the usual line up of White balance settings (Daylight, Cloud, Shade, Tngsten Fluoresecent...) my favourite one is the K (Kelvin). Use the Live view to do an initial check. If it is daylight - set it to 5000 or 5250 and go to live view. While your finger is on the WB button scroll the front roller until the colour looks right to you and you should be set as long as the light doesn't change. Simples!

I have owned a Nikon D90 for 10 months. The image quality with this 12.3 mp camera is superb.The settings are easily accessible and understood. A feature that I find really useful is that I can set the ISO range of say. 200 -1600 this allows the camera to choose the appropriate ISO leaving the aperture settings intact, very useful in low light photography. You can shoot in fully automatic mode, aperture priority,shutter priority and manual. And you can choose to shoot in jpg or RAW. The camera is a pleasure to use and I would recommend it to any serious photographer.

This is excellent camera, capable of superb results with easy handling & all the features you could wish. Been using a D80 for two years, just upgraded to Nikon D90. Very well worth while, many additional & useful items that it really is a D300 is a smaller frame - & a lot cheaper!! It has many useful features such as 12.3 megapixels, live view, face detection system and active D-lighting tone control.etc. Let's don't forget, it is the first DSLR to support video recording. Excellent handling, exposure, viewfinder & results etc.. brilliant.

one of two things. Either you do not have a good oiondatufn in basic photography and/or either your friends or a salesman has fed you a line based upon opinion, not experience.And NO, the Nikon SB-600 will not fully function on a Canon camera. First because Canon lacks the radio control system that operates the Nikon SB-600 and SB-800 flash units and secondly because the trigger voltage on the Nikon flash is 12v . twice the voltage the Canon uses without the risk of damage to the Canon's electronics. High trigger voltages void the warranty on any DSLR.
