Designed for serious shooting, but fun to use! Lots of customizations.
In June '08, I was going to buy the D80, but it was two years old and rumored to be discontinued in several months. So I bought a D60 to hold me over until the new model, the D90, came out. Well, I've enjoyed using both cameras, but this one is a huge step up and more suited to an advanced enthusiast. It's a real pleasure to use.
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 bu...

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...

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 ...

So impressive
Switched from the Canon Xsi to this, and the difference (for the better) is amazing.
Things I love about the D90:
-size is perfect, ergo is great, fits really nicely in the hands
-hi res LCD screen is amazing
- AF is very accurate, if a little slow (but I will take slower but accurate over faster and missed focus any day)
- interface is great
-lots of hard buttons on the outside (possibly too many?)
-high iso noise performance is outstanding
-top LCD...

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...

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...

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...

Wow is all I can say
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) 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 m...

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 ...

A great camera, but not perfect
Pros
The same ISO capability of the D300.
Intuitive layout that Nikon is famous for
Fast - focus, frames per second, and card access
First DSLR to have video, but . . .
Cons
Video has poor audio quality and no AF
Kit lens is not worth what Nikon says it's worth
Recommendation: Casual users who aren't concerned about how tough the kit lens is should buy now. Semi-pros who want a good lens might want to wait and just get the body (available ab...
