While it may look a lot like its predecessor, the new Nikon D90 is essentially an all-new camera on the inside. The most talked-about feature on the D90 has to be its movie mode. The camera can record up to 5 minutes of continuous high definition (720p) video with sound, and longer if you use a lower resolution. Recording movies on an SLR isn't as easy as you may think, as you have to manually focus if your subject is moving around. Still, it's a fun feature, and one that I figure most SLRs will be getting in the next couple of years. PhotographyBLOG has just posted their review of the D90 here.
"The bottom line is that if you are looking for a high-performance yet affordable DSLR for taking high-resolution still photographs of varied subjects, I can highly recommend the Nikon D90 to you. If you intend to use Live View frequently, I would suggest that you look at other options as well. If your main objective is recording video as painlessly as possible, get a camcorder instead. But if you have some experience in filmmaking and want to experiment with a large-sensor camera that takes interchangeable lenses and records high-definition video, and are willing to put up with its idiosyncrasies, I'd say go for it – you're going to enjoy it!"
