The brand-new Nikon D90 looks pretty much just like all the other moderately priced DSLRs, whether Nikon, Canon, Olympus, or whatever. Let’s face it: the mid-range market is flooded, with too many models offering not enough serious differences to distinguish themselves.
But the D90 is different, in a serious way. Yes, it has a new, larger CMOS sensor, and new high-speed processing software, both of which could prove valuable. But the D90’s biggest secret is movement: this is the first SLR ever to record video. And it’s hi-def video, up to 1,280 x 720 pixels. And since the camera’s sensor is bigger than your average camcorder’s, and you can use a variety of top-flight Nikon lenses (only very high-end video gear offers multi-lens ability), that means the D90 just became the gold standard of amateur video-making. Just like in your still shots, you can get really shallow depth of field, which is unheard of with camcorders; and the D90s ultra-high ISO settings (up to 6400, which remains to be tested) means you can can get good, moody detail in very low-light conditions. Yes, the file sizes will be enormous. But the quality will probably be worth it for most of us. The D90 could be a video game-changer.
Here’s a slick/hip promotional video for the D90, of its advance testing by pro photographer Chase Jarvis. Many of the clips in the video were shot with the D90, at 3200 ISO. Pretty great stuff.
