Nikon D90 DSLR

Nikon D90 DSLR a good workout. The D90 is packed with a 12.3 megapixel chip, 720p video recording and GPS tagging. The Nikon D90 DSLR answers the call for creative freedom with advanced features that benefit all levels of photographers.

Hands-on impressions are good, with ergonomics and weight (1lb. 6oz) both apparently “spot on”. Some of the DSLR purists were concerned about the inclusion of video recording, however the possibility of manual depth of field control, high-ISO filming and all of Nikon’s lens choices might tempt them round.
