Nikon D90 digital SLR Comments

aw...Cliff seems a lil camera shy...(lol! at the irony in that). Congrats if that was your video debut and great review as well.

Too bad I have a D300, (and a D70) but this camera would've been great!! Nikon!! woohoo!!
Thanks for the review!

Nice camera, but ISO performance shots surprised me. Here, at TR, you can see a hint of noise at ISO200 and it gets worse at higher settings. DPreview shots are clear up to ISO800 and even ISO1600 looks good. Why so much difference? Faulty camera?

I was also surprised by the amount of noise.A compact like the LX3 isn't all that far behind this midrange DSLR in that respect...Unless this was really a defective camera.(absolutely NOT comparing other aspects to a compact; however, the noise was really astonishing for a DSLR)

I think the noise problem may be due to the fact that all the shots of the model cars look slightly underexposed to my eyes.(Compared to the LX3 images.) Would noise be more likely to be visible on an underexposed image?

I didn't realise the camera doesn't AF in video mode. A huge shame but I guess the 5DII is the same??

In 12 months time all mid-range dSLRs will have video I reckon.

Very surprising that the D90 got a 9 points for image quality point while the D300 got 10 points. The noise is the same. I own the D90 and I would recommend you not to trust this review regarding image quality.

I agree with all above about ISO. I have a compact Canon A590IS and the noise level will be better than Nikon D90? Impossible. Return to google and seek other reviews and make your conclusion. IMO D90 is wonderful, will be my next purchase.

Dear james,

Thanks.Actually I'mn't getting any error msg.The portion where the video is epected to dispaly is viwed a completely blank.Its just like a plain white.I thnik the video player is some how not loading.Don't knw what really is the issue.

I have tried IE & Opera.Still same results.

Any idea james ???

Iso PICS, page 6 are not real, believe me. Mistake or not, please, put on the real pics.
Image quality in high ISO is so GOOOOD in the D90...

Does anyone know if Nikon do a camera with VR built into the body, rather than the lens? I believe one of the Sony Alpha's does, but I'm kinda wanting to stick with a Nikon as I have all the lens' for them.

I love the D-90 but when I do a video and play it in Windows Media Player the sound stops and the video continues for a period of time. In the camera and using Quiktime the video and audio stop together but without the additional video I see with Media Player. Specific: if a file runs for 52 seconds with audio and video in the camera and Quiktime, it will run longer in media player but without audio. No matter how long the file there is still some video without audio. I tried to talk to Nikon tech support but they are incompetent or worse. I want the video that is recorded but I would like to have audio with it. Any thoughts? One other thing, in Media Player, when the cursor reaches the right side of the screen is when the audio stops and the video continues.

D90 Great CAMERA - Bought Mine Sat 23 May - Manual was missing 17 pages and had duplicate pages instead NIKON WILL NOT PAY for you to send it to them for exchange - they're in Dublin so it costs you £3 from UK mainland at cheapest printed rate airmail - a small amount you may think - but their QC that caused it!! One trusts the camera QC is better!!

OK guys, I need a simple answer . . . I'm looking at buying a DSLR and night after night I try and find what will be best and its got to the point I'm exhausted, so I need help, my situation is this;

I'm a designer (were not all bad), I have some photography experience more with traditional SLR, I would like to take images for product shots, through to background images, sizes ranging from hi-res magazine articles through to large 2m banners, you can see its a pretty wide scope . . . would the D90 be my best option in the sub £900 price bracket.

I was concerned about the image ISO samples shown here !

PLEASE HELP as I would like to purchase this weekend. Anyone have a recommendation as to suppliers I can go to I live near Warrington.

Can any of you guy’s with a D90 do me a favour.
If any of you have a PS3, can you try plugging your D90 into it, and see if you can copy the photos/video onto your PS3 (or anybody else’s for that matter!).
I was able to do it with my D40 with no problems, and it was fantastic! The PS3 keeps the image quality really high and makes viewing the photos a breeze. But for some reason when I put in my D90, it just tells me it detects an unknown USB device and doesn’t let me connect.
It’s a shame as I liked turning my TV into the mother of all photo frames!

I have only had my D90 for 3 days so its too early for me to comment on it, but my first impressions…………………Oh yeah baby…………
