Quick review
- The good
- Image quality, movie quality, tilt turn and swivel LCD (for some shots), handling, ease of use, price
- The bad
- Small viewfinder, LCD resolution/colour rendition, size (for market), bottom hinged LCD easily impeded on a tripod
- Verdict
- Nikon’s D5000 sits above the D60 but below the D90 in the Nikon DSLR range, with a feature set culled from the latter, but priced towards the former. It has a 12.3MP CMOS sensor and a new tilt, turn, swivel 2.7-inch LCD and HD movie capability and it is, well, a cracker
- Key specs
- 12 megapixels, SD, SDHC
