The Live View mode allows for users to frame their images on the large 3" high resolution color LCD - providing for easy image framing, even when shooting at odd angles.

The Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-105mm VR lens features built-in Vibration Reduction II system providing equivalent shutter speeds 3 steps faster than standard lenses. It also has one ED glass element and one aspherical lens element, optimized for use with DX-format SLRs. The VR system & ED glass allow you to make highly-resolved, crisp images with minimal chromatic aberration. Lastly, the lens' ultra-compact Silent Wave Motor allows for blazingly quick, silent autofocus.

The Nikon 70-300mm f/4-5.6G offers high power telephoto capability, ideal for a variety of applications including sports, wildlife and candid photography. The built-in macro capability provides a maximum reproduction ratio of 1:4.

Customer Review :

You can tell the D90 was designed by photographers and not just engineers! Wonderful user interface and image quality!

I am far from a professional photographer, but I take it as seriously as possible while still referring to it as a hobby. I take mostly pictures of people at events and many of my baby son without flash in low light situations.

I had been using a Nikon D40x for 1 year and very early reached my limitation with that camera. The Nikon D40x has very nice image quality, but the camera's interface is not suited for a more serious shooter who wants quick single button or dial access to such shooting parameters such as white balance, shooting mode, metering mode, etc. I also felt very limited by the D40x not having an in-body focus motor that would allow me to use non AF-I/AF-S lenses (which are lenses without the focus motor built-in).

The Nikon D40x limitations were severe enough that I was about to consider purchasing a Canon 40D until the Nikon D90 appeared just in time.


PROS:

1. Fantastic set of separate buttons on the camera to control parameters like ISO, white balance, metering, autofocus, image quality, shooting mode, etc.
2. Two command dials
3. High resolution 920K pixel LCD screen (like the one on the Nikon D300)
4. 12.3 megapixel CMOS sensor
5. Low noise high ISO capability (for low light shooting) I can shoot ISO 1600 with good image quality with this camera, while on my D40x I could only shoot with ISO 400 and obtain acceptable IQ. I will even use ISO 3200 frequently with very usable results!
6. Separate top-viewing LCD screen in addition to the rear high res screen, to show shooting parameters constantly
7. In-body focus motor which allows the use of Nikon's non AF-I/S lenses, including wonderful and CHEAP prime lenses such as the Nikkor 50mm 1.8 (~$100 lens!)
8. Continuous shooting of 4.5 frames per second
9. Small size, although larger than the D40/D40x/D60, it is still substantially smaller in the hand than the D300/D3
10. 720p 24fps MPEG video shooting capability with incredible ability to use depth of field that I cannot achieve with my Sony High-Def camcorder.
11. Eleven auto-focus points (not as nice as the 51 points on the D300, but substantially better than my D40x with its 3 points)
12. GPS option
13. HDMI output
14. Enormous number of options to customize camera and shooting settings to fit your style of shooting
15. Fantastic image quality right out-of-box if you don't want to do any post processing
16. Terrific build quality
17. Top notch camera ergonomics (but this will be a very personal opinion that differs for each shooter)


CONS:

1. "Rolling shutter" phenomenon while recording video: The D90 CMOS sensor has the same problem that other CMOS video recorders have when recording video. If you move the camera, especially horizontally, you get a "jelly" or "rubberbanding" effect where the image wobbles significantly. It is nice to have the video features, which looks very sharp at 720p, but it is NOT a substitute for a video camera. If you use a tripod, and do not do quick zooms/pans, the video quality is excellent. Without a tripod, however, you may get nauseas watching a wobbly video. The sound is also in monoaural.
2. 1/200 flash synch: Not a problem for me, but it might be for you.
3. No weather sealing: This is found on the Nikon D300/D3 and even on similarly priced models from other camera companies
4. The buffer will fill up after about 8 continuous RAW + JPG (FINE) shots. This number differs depending on the shooting parameters that you will choose. If you shoot primarily JPG, the buffer seems to allow a very large number of continuous shots, but I have not quantified this for JPG only.


TIPS:

1. Get the FREE Nikon ViewNX software from Nikon's site as your 1st step in your workflow. This will let you examine your RAW images that you can process for either Nikon CaptureNX2 to do further RAW processing or just export to JPG for a JPG editor such as PhotoShop.
2. Recommend buying the Nikon CaptureNX2. It is a RAW converter (if you shoot in RAW) that will read the camera settings properly for export to JPG. Capture NX2, however, is not as slick as the Adobe products and Capture NX2 requires a fairly powerful computer, otherwise it can run pretty slowly on a PC > 3 years old.
3. If you use JPEGs out-of-camera, consider increasing the sharpness above the default 3 or 4. Nikon uses a very conservative sharpening default setting. Nikon has decided to change the default JPEG images to match the higher end D3/D700/D300 cameras which produce more neutral images. Consequently, the D90 images that are less punchy than the D40/D40x/D60/D80, so you may also want to turn up the in-camera saturation and contrast.



The Nikon D90 has all of the interface features that serious and even professional photographers need with wonderful image quality.

The PowerShot A590 IS will astound you with its power-packed performance and impressive value. Its got 8 megapixels, a 4x optical zoom, an Optical Image Stabilizer, and a large 2.5-inch LCD.

Questions & Answers
Question : Which is the best digital SLR camera and lens combination available within 500$?
I have used point and shoot cameras for 2 years and would love to graduate to digital SLR cameras. I would prefer a camera which is not too new in the market.

Answer:
I happen to like the E series digital SLR's from Olympus. At ten megapixel's, the camera's lens is astoundingly sharp and the whole enchilada will cost you well within your budget. Check some of the sites like B&H Photo. Be wary of kits that offer you a bunch of stuff you don't need. There's also a package deal with two zooms for the E-510. Great feeling camera in the hand as well.

 

Question : Is there a way to use Film SLR lenses on a Digital SLR camera?
I recently got a Digital SLR camera (Canon Rebel XT) and my dad has several good lenses for an older film-based SLR camera. The lenses are different in the fact that the old ones have 3 "blade" type metal pieces at the bottom instead of the relatively flat new lens. Is there something I can get to use the old lenses on my new camera? I really want to use that lens Thanks guys, will do a little more research and see if there is an adapter available.

Answer:
First, you must determine what brand of camera your dad's lenses were made for. If they were for a Canon FD type mount (FTb, AE-1) then an adapter is required. If the lenses were for a Minolta MC/MD mount (SRT-202, XG-9, XE-7, X-700) then you will need an adapter. This adapter can often be found on eBay. If the lenses were for a Nikon there is an adapter to use them on your Canon DSLR. Although there are adapters to allow the use of non-Canon EOS mount lenses, there are limitations you should be aware of. 1) Some of the lenses may not focus to infinity. 2) All of the ones using an adapter will have to be manually focused. 3) All of the lenses will require using "stop down" metering. What this means is that since there is no mechanical or electrical connection between camera and lens the aperture remains where you set it. If you're shooting wide-open (f1.4, 1.7) this isn't a problem - your viewfinder stays bright. If, however, you stop down for more depth of field (f5.6, f8, etc.) your viewfinder gets dark - making it difficult if not impossible to focus. So you focus wide-open and then stop down to the aperture you want, meter and take the picture. There is a wealth of information at: http://www.bobatkins.com/photography/eosfaq/manual_focus_EOS.html http://www.lordofthelens.net

 

Question : Does anyone know what a digital SLR camera lens of 40mm-150mm is equal to in a optical zoom?
Does anyone know what a digital SLR camera lens of 40mm-150mm is equal to in a optical zoom in a digital point and shoot camera?

Answer:
It will depend on the point and shoot. Most point and shoots start at around 36mm or 38mm wide (35mm equivalent). To be able to cover the equivalent of 150mm, they would need to be about a 4x zoom. However, some point and shoots are a little wider to start off with, at 28mm. To be able to cover 150mm, you'd need over a 5x zoom (5.36x). Thus, a 6x zoom would be needed on those cameras. Note also that a 4x zoom on these wider cameras would only cover to 112mm vs. a 4x zoom on a camera not as wide, which will cover to 150mm. (ex: 4x28mm=112mm vs. 4x38mm=152mm). You need to check the point and shoot specs, specifically for the lens and see what the 35mm equivalents are. Hope this helps.

 

Question : Can anyone advised what's the best digital slr camera should i choose for a beginner like me?
I'm starting to love photography. I have a Fuji S7000 and a Canon ixus70. Been taking photos for relatives and friends in weddings, birthday parties and families outdoor activities such as BBQ parties for the last 2 years. Thought of getting myself a digital slr camera to explore more on best photography.

Answer:
If you aren't invested in lenses for an SLR then I suggest looking seriously at the Sony A100 and Pentax K100D Super. The A100 is 10mp, has Super Anti-Shake in the camera body, has dust removal for the sensor and accepts every Minolta Maxxum AF lens made since 1985. It also accepts many of the Maxxum accessories. The K100D Super is 6.1mp, has Image Stabilization (IS) in the camera body, has dust removal for the sensor, and you can use every K-mount lens made since 1975. Of course the older lenses will be manual focus but they will have the benefit of IS. Since the introduction of the Sony A700 and Pentax K10D the A100 & K100D Super should be dropping in price. However, careful shopping might find the K10D and A700 available for a reasonable price.

 

Question : What kind of digital SLR camera is best for beginners?
I've taken a recent interest in photography - I've always taken pictures with a normal digital point and shoot camera, but I really really want a beginner SLR camera, which can take really nice pictures but is reasonably priced. I don't know ANYTHING about SLR cameras, but the ones I've looked at so far are the Nikon D40, and the Canon Rebel, and the Pentax K110.... any advice?

Answer:
The Nikon D40 is probably the best beginner SLR, especially for the price. Stepping up from there, consider the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT, the Nikon D40x, and the Canon EOS Rebel XTi. The Pentax K100D super is also a good choice, but I think the Nikon is better built.

 

Question : which is camera is better? a slr digital camera or a non digital slr camera?
I am extremly new to the word of photography and want to by a camera. I don't have the space for a non digital camera to develop the pictures but digital slr cameras cost way more. I just want to know which would be better for me to learn and if their is an easier way to get one(i tried ebay). I'm a working student and money is not growing on my trees. also does any one have any recommendations for models/brands?

Answer:
While having an SLR/DSLR always seems like the best way to go in a lot of peoples minds, it may not be for you. Are you planning on doing more than snaps shots? If not, then get a nice point and shoot camera. If you have doubts on any kind of photography career or future, then get a point and shoot. A professional photographer gerts great results because of their knowledge and experience, not from the camera they use. Just having an SLR or DSLR will not make your images any better than mine, Ansel Adams, or the kid down the street. Space is not a consideration even for film as you can have them developed at a pro lab, if need be.

 

Question : what would be a good starter digital slr camera for me?
i only know a little and i want to expand my knowledge in cameras. what would be a good starting digital slr camera for me? what do you guys think of the nikon d-40? i want something easy and simple yet giving me full controls. also how do you determine how much zoom the lense can do?

Answer:
nikon D40x All of the major brands are good. Choose a brand that appeals to you. Then you have to think about getting a spare battery, what size memory card, if you want an extended warranty, how much you can afford, what size zoom, if you want manual controls, the size of the camera, finding a reliable place to purchase it, and the list goes on and on and on....... The first thing to realize is that almost any digital camera will take good pictures. If more people would read the manual more than once, they would be able to take better pictures. Usually, the person assumes it is the camera when it could be them not knowing exactly what to do. Just give yourself more photographic knowledge by doing more reading on the internet. I really believe buying a camera is an individual choice. The person needs to read alot of reviews on cameras so they can decide on the features that they really want and need. Go to the store and hold them so you can see if they feel comfortable in your hands. If possible, take some pictures in the store to check the quality of the pictures. I can only give a suggestion of what to look for in a new digital camera. Good Luck my suggestion go to yahoo shopping digital cameras digital camera GUIDE be sure to check titles on the left side the guide should answer your questions

 

Question : Need a remote control for a Canon Digital Rebel SLR Camera. Too many, which should I get? Is generic ok?
I'm purchasing a remote control for my boyfriends, Digital SLR Canon Rebel Camera. Looking online I've come across different models from Canon, and generic remotes that can be used for different makes of camera? If someone happens to have this camera or just knows about SLR's in general, please give me an idea of what I need to get. I'm oping to purchase off ebay, it's usually cheapest. Thanks.

Answer:
you get what you pay for ! a generic one might have to be programmed to work on the camera.

 

Question : Which digital SLR is the best for an intermediate photographer?
I've been working with my 4 megapixel for some years now, but I feel I've outgrown it. I've been looking at digital SLRs lately, but they can get pricey. Would a regular film SLR be better? Or if you know a good site to get a 10 megapixel for a fairly decent price, that would be great! Could someone please help?

Answer:
Good question, hope this helps: I just bought a used Nikon F80 film camera and standard lens ($250). I shot some pix on Velvia ($15 a roll proc. incl.) and scanned them with my ages-old Minolta scanner (worth exactly zero on the open market). I made a print at home ($2.00) and guess what? The results blew my D50 and 18-70 lens ($1200 new) into the weeds. Now, a brand-new 10mpixel digicam may crush the Velvia, but I'd really want to be sure of this before I shelled out for it. And, PS, I could have had the Fuji drum scanned at 46mpixels!

 

Question : What kind of digital SLR camera should I buy?
I have a Panasonic Lumix. It's a great non-SLR (has a built in Leica lens with 12x zoom), but its missing some things. I want to shoot in raw mode, and also would like to get something with rear curtain flash, fill flash, interchangeable lenses, and stuff of that sort. In other words, I want a digital SLR, but I don't know what kind. So, would be a good idea to buy a brand new low end model, like an Olympus E-500 or Nikon D-40, or a last generation top of the line, like an old Nikon D1-H, or Fujifilm S1? I am learning photography, but want to someday be very good at it (as in possibly even professionally good). I don't want a camera that will hold me and my creativity back. Also, I don't think megapixels are a huge deal, as long as I can get at least 1600-1200 photos. I mostly do online stuff, and would only usually go for a 5x7 if I printed anything out. This would be for learning purposes only. Thank you beforehand for all the great answers. 8*) I would also like a camera that can shoot up to 1600 ISO...

Answer:
A Nikon D40 would be a great start for you. The price difference between the D40 and the D40x or some competing cameras could buy you lenses to expand the possibilities. Then, you can use those lenses in the future, if/when you upgrade camera bodies! A D1-H is good, but digital cameras have evolved so much in the last few years. Here's one trusted viewpoint for you. http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/d40.htm
