jeremy_jones3 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 <p>Hey everyone,<br> I know this can get old quickly but I must express my extreme delight with my D90. Only just a year ago I posted a comment that I would "never trade in my F90x for anything digital." Well, I did just that. I have been shooting film for the last 12 years (and I kept an old Canon AV-1 so I can still do so once in a while) but I couldn't bear listening to my wife nag me about developing costs anymore. I am astonished with every aspect of the camera. The menus are easy to navigate, the metering is almost always bang-on, the AF is great and it fits like a glove in my hand. As a long-haul truck driver I get to see many parts of this beautiful country (Canada). Now I will be able to capture this beauty at a much more affordable cost! I currently have a 35-80mm, 80-200mm 4.5-5.6D, and I purchased a 50 1.8 with my D90. I shoot just about everything so I'm already looking at a 300 f/4 and a 10-20/10-24 mm to extend my range on both ends. Happy shooting!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Laur Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 <p>Welcome to the funhouse, Jeremy. That camera will serve you well! And now you can put <em>all</em> of that film money into lenses! Um, and extra hard drives, of course. But those cost about as much as pizza these days. Have fun!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yann1 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 <p>Menus easy to navigate ?<br> That's what I like with Nikon: You know one Nikon body, you know them all, and get used to the new functions very quickly. Also, almost all old lenses fit. However, the AF is a little disappointment, especially on Live View. But like everyone else, I'm extremely satisfied with my D90, especially for the price.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankiep Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 <p>There's a club? If so, I'm in - have had mine for 2.5 weeks (upgraded from beloved D40) and utterly adore it, especially teamed with the nifty 50 f/1.4. Congratulations, and what fun you'll have shooting your travels across beautiful Canada.</p> <p>Bill, beautiful shot of your lad. Lens? I love it, one for the wall for sure.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill_brock1 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 <p>Frankie,<br> Thanks so much for the comment!!!!!! The lens I used was a 18-105mm vr shot at 18mm. And yes for the wall!<br> BillDozer</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam_lozano Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 <p>I don't have the D90, but I do have the N90s (or F90x as our European friends call it). What a great old camera. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
