The Nikon D90
Photography has been a popular hobby for many ever since it was created back in the late 1830s. Since then, the field has seen many new inventions and improvements that were created in order to make your life a little bit easier. However, never before has the photography enthusiast seen such large strides which are being taken by Nikon and their new D90 model.
The Nikon D90 boasts 12.3-megapixel image quality and the ability to shoot video in a cinematic 24fps mode. The D90 is the only piece of equipment you will need to passionately embrace photography. Best of all, the D90 provides you with professional results without the professional cost.
Since the Nikon D90 is relatively new, the price tag will remain steady until next quarter. The Official Nikon USA website states that a brand new Nikon D90 starts at $999.95.
Current Nikon D90 Features (from Nikon USA):
- 12.3-megapixel DX-format CMOS imaging sensor
- Continuous shooting as fast as 4.5 frames-per-second
- World’s first D-SLR with an HD movie mode
- Low noise ISO sensitivity from 200 to 3200
- 3-inch super-density 920,000-dot color LCD monitor
- Built-in image sensor cleaning
- 11-point AF system with Face Priority
- One-button Live View
- Nikon 3D Color Matrix Metering II with Scene Recognition System
- Comprehensive exposure control
- Auto Active D-Lighting
- Durable, high precision shutter
- In-Camera Image Editing
- GPS geo-tagging
Even though the D90 is in the higher price range for your average budget, it’s a great investment for the future and will likely not be surpassed completely by competition for quite some time. Plus, Nikon offers many accessories to enhance the usability of your camera.
In comparison, I’ve looked at the equally popular, yet less expensive, Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi which starts at $799.99. Specifics wise, the only measurable difference is that the EOS has a loss .1 megapixels and doesn’t have the ability to film in 24fps. If film isn’t important to you, then the only real comparison of usability is if your preference fancys Nikon or Canon cameras. Both are great and will deliver quality results.
Finally, I leave you with video review featuring professional photographer, Chase Jarvis, testing out the D90.
