Incredible fun style as always achaser123.
This D90 may have to be the next piece of must have gear.

Even though I’m fully geared w/ 1DsMkII, 30D 300/2.8, and 10G’s of support that goes with it, I’d still get this guy.
Now the 5DMkII is about to arrive, My wallet is screaming.

Still need pocket wizards for the Elinchroms.
It may never end.
Cheers w/a beer, Holland tap style.

Happy to offer a different viewpoint:
1. RAW is Nikon’s standard NEF – universal when software companies add it to their plugins during regular intervals.
2. 1/3 of the clips in my vid above (mostly the action stuff) was with the D90. I think many of those clips are great. I think the video is quite nice.
3. The chip on the D90 is far superior to the D80. ISO quality is way enhanced, and the camera is faster.

Good luck and thanks for checking out the vid.

thanks for the advice. i am a nikon d80 owner, and i am very interested in the d90. i thought it was a huge difference in features, other than the video. i am totally satisfied with my d80.

This is a great …
This is a great camera but it has two major weak points that should be considered. Firstly you cannot convert RAW files even if you buy their expensive software. This means no sophisticated editing to professional standards and places the camera firmly in the amateur catagory- don’t fool yourself otherwise. Secondly the sound on the video is- lets face it- completely crap, so unless you’re taking separate sound recordings- its just for holidays.

anyway, since all the concurrent brands just released their newest photocams, and none of them have no video capture, i say this D90 will sell like water and in future the other brands will put vid on their entry-mid level stuff and hopefully with autofocus function ;)

and, yes, in normal movies they indeed use manual focus, but is not the camera operator who does it, but a second person, the “focus puller” (as you may know) which, by the way, usually is a very good and experimented professional. since non-professional people which would occasionally use D90 to film don’t have an istant neither 3 (or four) hands, the autofocus would really be of a great help. i hope that in future DSLR versions Nikon will rethink about it.

thx for the confirmation for the zoom, i also thought that it would be possible, since it depends on the optic, but you never know xD

about the focus, i understand now why they dont use zoom/in and out on this propaganda vid :) it would made the image out of focus for few hundreds of milliseconds till adjust the focus. Its a pity, i wonder why they don’t implement the autofocus option.

thx for the reply ;)

It is possible to zoom in and out depending on what lens you use. Like a zoom lens will but primes wont. You can use any lens for the video but while recording you have to manual focus. Just like normal movies

In none of those vids you’ve shown changes on focal distance. Is it possible to zoom in/out? And I’m not sure I understood: you can use autofocus and manual focus? or just one of them? Cheers.
