Im also from NZ, and was also thinking of buying a DSLR when I go to the USA (freaky coincidence :P). But when I

checked on www.pricespy.co.nz, it seems that prices for non-pro bodies are comparable and possibly even cheaper

in NZ, especially with the recent exchange rate increase. Lenses seem to be a different matter, and US prices are

considerably cheaper.

Since it seems that Nikon lenses have a worldwide warranty whereas bodies dont, then the best thing to do would

be to get the body here, and buy lenses (and other accessories) from the USA.

The D90 is not available in NZ yet, that might be a factor in your decision.
