"The Nikon D90 is a logical progression from the D80, and covers the middle ground between the consumer models like the D40X and the new D60, and the professional models like the D300 and the D700. It has the creative versatility, performance and quality to appeal to semi-professionals and advanced hobbyists, while the scene modes, live view and the video mode will appeal to gadget lovers and the more casual user who wants a good all-rounder."

"I'm starting to feel strange about saying Nikon's done it again, but it looks like they have. The Nikon D90 looks like a genuinely excellent camera for the intermediate photographer, and a great choice as a full-featured, light weight body for those who own a Nikon D200 or D300. The addition of video is ground-breaking, and will open up new possibilities that will be fun to explore, even though I wish it handled motion better than it does."

"With so much activity in the lower end of the digital SLR market, we're especially pleased to see the D90 combine accessibility to a wide range of photographers, regardless of their photographic skills or background, with consistently excellent lab test results and a solidly built, professional-feeling body. The fact that you can shoot video with this camera may have grabbed the headlines, but we're still on the fence about the practicality of this feature."

"When viewed as a 'traditional' SLR, it is simply an excellent camera that I very much enjoyed using. All the frequently used functions have direct controls assigned to them, be it aperture, shutter speed, ISO speed, file quality, drive mode, AF mode, AE Lock – you name it. Despite being a relatively complex camera, the D90 proved highly intuitive to use."

"We described the D80 as a photographer's camera and, despite the addition of video, the D90 appears to share that same ethos. On a purely specification level, it's a highly competitive piece of kit, but it's the way the features have been chosen and put together that make it the camera that it is."

PopPhoto have reviewed the new 12.3 megapixel Nikon D90 Digital SLR - the camera features a 3" screen, live view, 720p High Definition video recording, ISO upto 6400, 11 point AF, and 4.5fps shooting. The D90 is available for £799 with kit lens.

"As a still camera, the D90 continues Nikon's strong record in the midrange. While its videomaking is more than a little clunky, it's the first (and, for now, the least expensive) DSLR with this capability. It's a very worthy follow-up to the D80, and stacks up well against similarly priced cameras. If you shoot frequently at ISO 3200, you'll like the D90's excellent image quality, with low noise at that high sensitivity."

"This camera is a joy to use. It feels right in the hand. The bright viewfinder displays all the shooting parameter information. The image quality is spectacular. Even the instruction manual and menu system speak quality and careful attention to the photographer’s needs. When the D90 was introduced to a room full of cynical camera reviewers recently the announcement of the price brought a small muttering from the crowd. So much camera for, relatively speaking, so little money." (quote from DPExpert)

"Video quality was good, particularly with the 1280 x 720 (16:9) setting. However the associated sound quality was pretty ordinary. In practice, we found shooting video worked best when clips were kept relatively short and the camera was set up to record a subject at a particular distance before recording commenced. If the subject is moving, you'll need to put the camera on a tripod so you can keep re-focusing the lens. The same applies if you want to zoom in and out while shooting."

"As an upgrade from the D80, the Nikon D90 positively flies; adding a chunkier new sensor, improved speed and picture quality, plus a bundle of modes and features. From a usability point of view, the informative visual information and display features from the D60 have also been adopted - making for ultimate ease of use."

"The last Nikon digital SLR I reviewed was the D60, and to be honest, it didn't do much for me. My impression of the D90 is the total opposite: it blew me away. In terms of photo quality, manual controls, performance, customizability, and yes, its movie mode, the D90 is a home run. There are a few annoyances, such as slow focusing in live view mode and horrible bundled RAW editing software, but the positives far outweigh the negatives."
