Reviews :
D300/D90 are fantastic .... from a long time Canon shooter
I'm a long time Canon shooter, about 20 years actually. I decided to go "to the dark side" a few months ago due to ongoing quality control problems w/ Canon. I recently purchased a D300, D90, Sigma 150 macro, Nikon 16-85 VR and Nikon 70-300 VR to replace my Canon 1D Mark II, 40D and assorted lenses. The D300 is by far the best camera I think I've ever used and the D90 is almost as good. While the D90 doesn't have the weather sealed build or AF system of the D300, it is still built very well and also has a nice accurate AF system. I'd say the D90 offers 80% of what the D300 does at a much better price point for most people. Even the kit lens for the D90 is better than I expected, though I do wish it had a metal mount instead of plastic. Nice job Nikon. The only thing I miss from the Canon line-up is their pro-quality F4L lineup (17-40, 24-105, 70-200) but the above mentioned Nikon consumer glass comes very very close to the quality of the Canon pro glass at a fraction of the cost so I'm not complaining.

Nikon D90

This camera is the best camera I have ever owned. It was everything I expected and even more. I would recommend this camera to anyone interested in improving their photography and adding a whole new level to it.

amazing...

This is a wonderful camera... I owned (and still own) a nikon D50 which I will use as a backup. My wife no longer needs to put on her glasses when I take a picture and show her on the 3 inch (incredible resolution) screen. I cant go on and on like other people about cameras, all I can say is I am not disappointed in this product. I bought it for the camera itself I have not taken any HD video with it... that was never my intent. Its like a "nice backup" if i ever need it. My only regret? Buying a camera that has anything to do with any association with Aston Kutcher... This camera has allot more talent than he has.
