Abstract: Almost exactly two years after the D80 was announced comes its replacement, the rather predictably named D90. The D80 has been one of Nikons quiet successes, and even today, despite being positively Methuselah-like in digital camera terms it continu...
Abstract: D-Movie ModeWhen a new product is launched, you expect new features - usually in the form of minor upgrades. But with the D90, theyre not all marginal improvements, and one of them in particular is ground-breaking. Nikon is the first to bring to marke...
Abstract: The D90 was a bit late. Normally we expect 18 month update cycles for the consumer DSLRs and this time we had 24 months between the D80 and D90. Given that the other changes in the camera are relatively modest, one would have to guess that the big holdup was the addition of video...
Abstract: Last week I made the upgrade from the Nikon D80 to the new Nikon D90. The D90’s claim to fame is that it is first DSLR camera to feature video recording. This lets me consolidate my gadgets as I just gave back my loaned Samsung SC-HMX10C HD camcorder. ...
The low light capabilities of this camera are similar to the D300, which means ISO1600 is the new ISO400. The image quality at high ISO settings is breathtaking with very little noise evident in even the trickiest bits of open shadow. Nikon make low li...
Presumably it is in the camera firmware and doesn’t cost anything, but does a serious DLSR really need to have a slideshow creator, with music, built in?
This camera is a joy to use. It feels right in the hand. The bright viewfinder displays all the shooting parameter information. The image quality is spectacular. Even the instruction manual and menu system speak quality and careful attention to the pho...
First SLR to shoot video, great noise control, feature-rich, brilliant screen
Live View autofocus is still slow, video footage suffers from wobbling and contrast issues
As the first SLR to shoot video footage, Nikon’s D90 is certainly an appealing product. The video mode itself still needs some work but it is fine for casual use and the still image capabilities are top notch as always making this another impressive...
Abstract: It was only a matter of time before one of the camera manufacturers figured out the Live View mode on a DSLR required a video image and then came up with some way to record it. Olympus was hinting at this potential back in January 2006, when the E-330 ...
Abstract: Last week we were promised something earth shattering by the high-ups at Nikon Australia. Naturally, as jaded tech journos, we thought that this might be a bit of marketing bluster, but were willing to concede that, after todays hands-on preview, Nik...
Abstract: Overall, the Nikon D90 is a worthy successor to the venerable D80, as it has all the most wanted features. Tons of enhancements make it worthwhile to upgrade, such as the Live View mode, which makes it easy to take casual and overhead shots of a crowd...
