Wow is all I can say
There are plenty of reviews out there, and I don't want to be redundant. So here are some helpful points that I had a hard time ferreting out when doing my research before pulling the trigger on this purchase, given that I was upgrading from a D60 and that I am, like many who are reading reviews on this product, not a professional:
1. I owned the D40, then the D60. So this is my third Nikon. I had trouble deciphering how my lenses, purchased for the D40/D60, would behave when used in ...

A Camera for Soccer Mom and Taekwondo Dad
I think most of us buying D90 would be someone like me. Goto review website for technical review and skip the rest. Read mine if you use it like I do. Here you go. Enjoy!
I have a D50 and just bot a D90. I shoot primary my daughters' school events usually indoor in a gym or threater. I have some of Nikon better F2.8 glasses. With indoor lighting and action such as TKD. The results are sometimes less than satisfactory. When using flash, the subject is well lit but the background would ...

D90 a Big Step Up From the D40
I just upgraded to the D90 from the D40 because I was tired of futzing with the white balance of the D40, and I wanted more low-light sensitivity (better ISO), as well as the flexibility of using faster lenses, many of which are not AF-S.
I have been very impressed with the D90. I'm comparing it to the D40. It takes significantly better pictures because of its larger dynamic range and better colors (ADR) and better white balance. The things that I think are important are ranked from ...

Great device & great service
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 c...

Which camera do I choose????
I've been using a point and shoot camera for about 5 years now - I'm by no means a photographer, just an average dad trying to take some pictures. My son recently turned one and I've been finding it more and more difficult to capture those precious moments. I press the button on my point and shoot....delay...missed the shot. Also whenever I take photos indoor I've found they are always blurry or noisy, just not very good. So I elected to get a Digital SLR camera - wow they are expensive! I did v...

Can't beat it
I have to admit that coming from a D40 background I didn't think the learning curve would be that much, but this camera is full of features (it is after all a baby version of the D300) with extra knobs and a top LCD screen so it will take you a little while to learn about all the features. I look at this as a good thing because I was starting to get a little bored with my D40 and had reached its limits. So if this is your first DSLR and you're on a budget, it MAY be a good idea to hold off on ...

Designed for serious shooting, but fun to use! Lots of customizations.
Several months before the D90 came out, I bought a D60 to hold me over until the D90 was released. Well, I've enjoyed using both cameras, but this one is a huge step up and more suited to an advanced enthusiast, like me. It's a real pleasure to use.
UPDATED AUG 2009
ERGONOMICS - The D90 is solid, tight, and well-balanced with the 18-105 VR lens. It's always ready and it shoots very fast. I love all the direct access buttons; they're easy to press, with good tactile feedba...

You can tell the D90 was designed by photographers and not just engineers! Wonderful user interface and image quality!
I am far from a professional photographer, but I take it as seriously as possible while still referring to it as a hobby. I take mostly pictures of people at events and many of my baby son without flash in low light situations.
I had been using a Nikon D40x for 1 year and very early reached my limitation with that camera. The Nikon D40x has very nice image quality, but the camera's interface is not suited for a more serious shooter who wants quick single button or dial access to such...

Excellent Camera - Good Lens
~The first part of this review is on the body only. The lens review will be at the bottom.~
For those of you trying to decide between the D80 and D90, I share your dilemma. I spent a lot of time deliberating between the two before making my decision. The D80 offers an amazing realm of features for the money, but the D90 has features you'll wish you had. The D90 offers a 3" LCD to the D80's 2.5", an active anti-dust cleaning system for the sensor, LiveView which is a real boon in tric...

Great camera for the money
I bought this dSLR after reading a bunch of positive reviews online and seeing it was a best pick on http://bestcovery.com. Overall I'm extremely satisfied with the purchase. As others have mentioned, it's not perfect, but it's probably the best available right now in this price range.
This is my first dSLR and I was impressed with how quickly I was able to jump in and start using it. You can get excellent images right out of the box using the Auto or scene modes. I took it to the US...
