Quick review

The good
Build and handling, superb image quality, ease of use, screen size, AF performance (non-Live View), White Balance control, EXPEED image processing and noise control, HD movies
The bad
Live View AF, SD card port, VR kit lens barrel and pincushion distortion, loss of shadow detail (dynamic range issues), SD cards held very tightly making safe removal awkward
Verdict
The Nikon D90 is not just a makeover of the D80, the camera it will ultimately supersede: it is a complete revamp and as such provides a range of new and improved features that must make one of the best consumer level DSLRs to arrive on the market to date
Key specs
12 megapixels, SD
