Nikon D90 Review

Even forgetting about the D90's nearly exclusive movie-recording ability, this is an exceptional DSLR. Image quality is great, with a 12 megapixels sensor capable of large prints up to ISO 1600 and even small prints at ISO 6400. The Nikon D90 always remains responsive with a very short shutter lag, perfect for candid and street photography. This digital SLR gives access to all important functions using physical buttons and a pair of easy to use control-wheels.

Movie-mode adds interesting possibilities, including the ability to record HD video using all sorts of Nikon lenses. The main limitations of the D90's movie-mode means it cannot replace an HD camcorder, but it can add value to this already good DSLR.

Without any specialized photographic need, the Nikon D90 is as about as good as it gets. For fast action and sports photography, there are faster cameras like the Nikon D300 which can shoot at 8 FPS vs the D90's 4.5 FPS. In rough environments, a weather-sealed model like the Pentax K20D should be considered. Finally, the only way to get better results for low-light photography is to go the full-frame route with something like the Nikon D3.
