The latest Nikon digital SLR camera - dubbed the D90 -
breaks new ground in a variety of different ways.
First, let's cover what the camera has in common with its
competition:
- 12.3 megapixel sensor - this number of megapixels is matched
only by the Nikon D300 (a semi-pro camera) and the Canon EOS Rebel XSi.
- Dust control - like many modern digital SLRs, the D90 repels
dust from the sensor for cleaner images
- Live view - you can compose photos with the D90 using either
the viewfinder or the large 3 inch LCD (live view is available on many other
digital SLRs)
And now, what sets this camera apart and will - at the time
of its release - make it unique:
- Continuous capture at 4.5 photos per second - this speed is
unmatched by any other consumer-level digital SLR (only semi-pro models like
the Canon 40D, Nikon D300, Olympus E-3 and Sony A700 are faster)
- Low noise up to ISO 3200 - incredibly low noise even at very
high ISO settings provides an immense amount of flexibility when taking photos
in low light
- 11 autofocus points - the most of any other competing camera
model in the same class
- D-movie - the Nikon D90
will be the very first SLR that will capture High Definition (HD) video in
addition to still images
When you tack on the fact that the D90 will ship with a
brand new 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6 Vibration Reduction (VR) lens, then you have a
camera that does it all.
I always tell people to figure out what sorts of photos they
want to take before they go looking for a camera to suit their needs,
because most cameras have limitations and don't excel at all types of
photography.
Only time will tell, but it sounds like the new Nikon D90
might cover every type of photography style there is - and throws in something
for the budding videographers as well.
The Nikon D90 will be available in September for an
estimated selling price of $1,300 with the 18-105mm kit lens.
No doubt about it - the D90 is a great digital SLR camera that is sure to please - especially if you are shooting in low-light conditions.

This is one of the most amazing cameras I've ever seen, all the features that come included with it make them the perfect choice for every one.
I have a Canon one, but I think that I rushed into it when bought it, now I'd like to have a Nikon D90

SLR cameras provide a beautiful effect especially in the marketing of products. The focus on the main subject and the blur in the background appeals a lot to customers. With my digital PackshotCreator SLR, I can easily create amazing product photos.
