View score

The good: First-rate performance; solid, well-constructed body with nice viewfinder; video capture capability; great photo quality.

The bad: Middling kit lens; poor HDMI output implementation.

The bottom line: Like the D80 before it, the Nikon D90 delivers an excellent dSLR for the money.

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: All in one gadget. No need to bring a video camera especially when traveling.
Cons: Video could have been better with auto focus selection.
Opinion:
I have a Nikon D50 before and when I travel I also have a video cam. When I bought my D90 I don't need to bring my video camera anymore.

 

Absolutely the Best

Pros: Everything about this camera speaks to quality and ease. The utlity value with video says I can do anything anywhere for whatever reason.
Cons: Have not found any!!!
Opinion:
I received my D90 with the kit lens a week ago and have made 700+ pictures. I have set the camera's function button and the "My Menu" setup to access the most useful features quickly. I have it programmed such that I can make changes on the fly with one hand. Keep shooting!!!

I have used the kit lens and the picture quality is superb. I know the downside is a plastic mount but I do not plan to jerk it around.

The quality of Nikor lens is always great. I also use the Nikor 55mm F1.4, a Nikor 18-55m VR, and a Tamron 28-300mm VC lens. All have allowed the camera to do its work while I worry only about composition and the pictures have turned out great.

This is a keeper.
