 YOU WILL LOVE THIS DSLR! November 18, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Just do yourself a big favor and just get this camera... happy days will soon come... Excellent control and user interface layout... low light photography with the kit lens alone is a knock-out!... 4.5 frames/sec. got you covered for action shots... the HD video feature is a plus... but you'll be turned off by the mediocre audio quality... Feature by feature the best pro-sumer DSLR to date... Easily, the camera which bridges the consumer and professional photographers... so why are you still sitting there?... go get it!
Moved from D40x to D90 and all I can say is WOW!!! November 15, 2008

I was going back and forth between the 90 and the 300. Obviously the 300 is a slightly more professional camera with a better frame, faster shutter, better autofocus, etc., but the D90 is so close to it and comes with a slightly better sensor and is $500 cheaper. Also, it has video. Now, before you stop reading because I mentioned that, let me make this statement. Video had nothing whatsoever to do with my decision. I had no interest in using a DSLR for video. But now that I've played with it, I think it is incredible. Now, it won't replace my camcorder but it will allow me to capture brief (<5 min) videos of things my child does that I would otherwise have to capture by switching physical cameras. The video quality if frankly amazing. The sound could be a little better, but is more than adequate. Now, on to the photography portion. The image quality between my D40x and the D90 is certainly noticeable. Pictures are clearer and more vibrant. All of the features that I used to have to access through the menu system (bracketing, image quality, burst mode, exposure, etc) are all available quickly using buttons and wheels on the camera. This is making a world of difference. The kit lens isn't the best by any stretch of the imagination but I have to be honest - it is better than I was expecting. I will try to post more as I continue to use it. But if you're considering moving up to a D90, DO IT!!! You won't regret it.
 Beware of D90 sporadic 'F--' Error November 13, 2008
3 out of 13 found this review helpful
Great Camera..But i get sporadic 'F--' Error in the middle of photo shoot and i will have to remove the lens and remount it to fix the problem. Unfortunately my 30 day Amazon return window elapsed and i am stuck with a faulty $1,300 so called Great D90 camera. Nikon said it would fix it since i am covered under the warranty after that it will come out my pocket.
I am the second person reporting the same 'F--' Error problem in Amazon.com. I have given one star because i have to give atleast one to Post this review.
Great device & great service November 11, 2008

Got the camera and the 18-200 lense a few weeks back. I am upgrading from a D70. Overall, I am very satisfied with the quality of the pictures - much better response in low light - higher ISO and better focus than the 70. Love the lens as well - this will be all I need for everything.
I did have an issue with the camera where I was getting F-- errors intermittently - depending on how I held the camera. This is a lens error per documentation. I was also getting CHA errors on the camera which is a chip error and only recoverable by removing the battery. Given that I was only 2 weeks into the camera I spoke with Amazon and exchanged the unit and lens for a replacement. I am confident that the new unit, which I got very quickly from Amazon - will function fine.
Great unit and the video is a great feature.
Advice from Professional Photographers November 11, 2008
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
I am not a camera expert at all. I wanted to take a digital SLR class, and to do so, I needed to buy a digital SLR. I was looking at the Canons in the $650 price range.
I mentioned this to a friend of mine who is a professional photographer. She said that if I had any willingness at all to spend more, I should get the Nikon D90 - that it stood alone in class - it was the only pro-quality camera that was priced as though it were not a pro camera.
This is what she said "This camera is sick and does video too. You may have seen the ads for it on TV. It has these brand new Nikon sensors which are incredible at shooting at all light levels. A lot of people are saying it's technically almost the same as my five thousand dollar camera. It's the kind of camera which is making pros scared that people will not hire pros any more."
A professional photographer I trust endorsing it to this level, basically telling me that it was my only option - that was enough for me. More than my analyzing a chart of what features it has and what it doesn't - things I don't understand yet. So I bought the camera and brought it to work, and a coworker's husband is a professional photographer and he said that the Nikon D90 was his backup camera and he can't tell the difference. So that makes two pros who unequivocally say it stands alone in its class.
So I'm not a pro, and what I can say is that it was very easy to learn, the video quality is also actually quite good, I've been taking pictures that look great, and the battery lasts forever. Also, any of my friends who know I have a camera drool when they find out I have the Nikon D90.
The short answer is this - either trust me that I've had two pros tell me what I've told you, or find a professional photographer and ask them about the Nikon D90. I'm positive that they will tell you that there's nothing comparable unless you want to spend 5 times as much.
Sometimes you just want the expert to point and say - that one, that's the right choice - your only choice. Sometimes you don't want to analyze tables of features and try to make heads and tails of it.
