The fact that you can shoot video with this camera may have grabbed the headlines, but we're still on the fence about the practicality of this feature. Setting video aside, though, there's an awful lot to like about this camera, from its fast burst mode to its fine low-light performance...

The Nikon D90 is not just a makeover of the D80, the camera it will ultimately supersede: it is a complete revamp and as such provides a range of new and improved features that must make one of the best consumer level DSLRs to arrive on the market to date

I admire Nikon for their work on the D90, which is as powerful as a 40D or 50D, and if I didn't already own many Canon mount lenses I would REALLY consider moving to the D90 for its photo capabilities. Fast, light, well made… the D90 a great camera for anyone wishing to jump into the serious...

The video function is pretty useless. If it could auto focus and get the lighting right in video mode it would be useful, but as it stands video is a novelty. The still side of things is just great though. So while the the video capability pushed me over the line to buy this model. It's the...

Overall picture quality of the Nikon D90 is excellent. The video function is very difficult to use with prime lenses. This model is getting old so I chalk this up to the fact it was the first DSLR with hd video capabilities. You can still get a bargain on this camera if you are in the market...

People who want a killer DSLR and sometimes want to shoot movie scenes will appreciate the D90 the most. Its still shots are among the very best available, competing head to head with the outstanding images from any camera with 8+ megapixels. Once your image density is this high, the chances are...

With this camera you're gonna get as good or better picture quality than some of the higher models in the line (until you reach full-frame of course). The higher models offer things for pros like weather resistance and more durable dropability but that's it. Movie mode gets a bad rap....

I've had mine for a few years now and I love it, but it has fallen by the wayside as I tend to favor my iPhone 4 for most things these days. Still, when I need low-light performance or focal length variety, the D90 is a winner.

This is a excellent camera. I suggest investing in a better lens than the one that comes with the kit. Battery life is amazing. I wish it had a external mic port.

After years of shooting with my Nikon D80, I had become intimately familiar with the controls, feel, and consistent quality of that well-built camera. I was excited to upgrade to the D90, and it has exceeded my expectations in every area. The menu has been revamped significantly, new menus...
