Customer Reviews
D90 - sheer class
Had the D90 now for 4-months and it just gets better and better. Can't think of a bad word to say about it. Just glad I bought before the prices went up! Its worth shopping around - use camerapricebuster dot co dot uk to find best deals.
Worth Every Penny
Buying a D90 body was a mistake as it has relegated my D300 to the position of "expensive ornament".
Originally bought as a second body, it has now taken over to become my number one choice for a day out. It is lighter than the D300, easier to use and I can't tell any difference in picture quality when used with the same lens.
Also, the firmware has been really well thought out, being comprehensive enough to allow a large range of options without the overkill of some of the more expensive models.
The D700 or D3 would probably produce marginally better images in low light but on a clear day and with good glass I doubt there would be much in it.
The plastic body shell may not be as robust as some of the more professional models but it certainly seems stronger than some of its rivals at a similar price point. If it does eventually wear out through over use I could always dust off the D300.
Amazing camera for the price, but forget the video feature
Upgraded from a D40 to the D90 as needed more focus points and an inbuilt auto focus motor to use with more advanced lenses. My only regret is not getting the camera sooner as its results are amazing. Excellent, quick focusing system, great image processing for JPEGs, amazing LCD screen and great, low noise images. Some even go as far as to say that, under most conditions, this camera even out performs the much more expensive D300, although the D300 does have a magnesium body and some weather sealing.
The D90 is slightly heavier (about 100g more) than the D40, and this could be a concern if weight is a concern. However, I can carry it around all day with the wonderful Nikon 18-200mm VR lens, and the two together is a dream combination! Only possible downside, is the quality of the video mode which is not great. However, I must say that I was reluctant to even mention this in this review for two reasons: Firstly, no one seems to use SLR's to shoot videos, and Secondly, because this is such a great camera its a shame to detract from it for an issue with something none of us are realistically going to use.
