D90 unboxed in semi-secretive fashion

i think you guys are developing an unhealthy obsession with this camera
i think is time for an intervention

Which Best Buy?

Can't wait for this camera!

Best DSLR on it's Price Range.

Damn Nikon, great job.

I told myself I could live with a D50 for a bit longer

Then this thing strolled into town.

It's a common saying that lenses are a better use of funds than bodies, but that isn't stopping my temptation unfortunately

Picked Mine up today at Best Buy (09-06-08). Had to get Manager's approval to purchase as the D90 is not GA to public until tomorrow per sales rep.

The spy photographer needs to learn about something called minimum focus distance. When you are TOO CLOSE to something, it will come out blurry.

Uh... Go down to your local Wolf Camera and try it out. I just did, they just opened a new box. Looks and feels nice.

Look at that HUGE, black... LENS!!!

You can see a Nikon D90 test on http://www.ilogan.info/?p=778

I'll sell you one today Ritz Camera Beverly Hills, CA

I still try to appreciate the irony when blurry pictures are taken of a high-end camera.

It should be a nice camera, but it ought to be a crime for people to publish shots of it taken on a camera-phone.

Well, I miss Boston, haven't been there in almost a decade. But I'd probbaly choose somewhere new, maybe Cancun. :) I'll be sure to drop ya a postcard if I win. :)

I want one to replace my d50 as well. For nothing other than the GPS ability. The only downside is that I haven't seen anything that will support the use of the GS and a external flash, which seems odd to me. But I want the GPS feature soooo bad.

That said, my d50 is still a far better camera than I'll ever be able to handle.

OMG!!!
A GINGER!!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Man... I was just going to buy a D80 with the 18-55 and the 70-200mm too for ~$850. I am only a High School Student Amateur and I have been saving for quite a while. Should I save some more and get the D90? (I have always wanted a High Def "camcorder").

Doesn't his ring look like a creepy eye, just staring. Always staring.

Certain Ritz Camera stores actually already have the D90 in stock. I bought mine this morning at 11am. I had to check a couple stores to hit the jackpot, but sure enough a few minutes before I walked in, they had received the package (The workers told me they had recieved only three).

Over at Chase Jarvis' site he's got a video of the camera in action if you want more than just a photo to look at.

Bought mine at Best Buy Plano, Tx. The guy seemed puzzled there weren't any at the display (the D90 was already out on display), but he just went in back and got me one. I have already taken five pictures of my cat that will redefine photography as we know it.

Release date is your mom. We sold the three received today at Ritz in 2 hours. They're HANDSOME!

Is it ironic that someone unboxing a D90 doesn't know how to focus?

any release date for Korea or is this a global release?

I spoke to a guy at a local Hi-mart here and he said sometime around September 19th.

bah need to go to Seoul...

Just got mine @ Ritz in Studio City :-D
This baby kick @ss!

I work at a camera store of the Ritz chain, and we got three D90's in a rare Saturday delivery, this morning. We certainly weren't expecting them. Let me tells ya...they are NICE! The video is crisp and clear (from what we could gather from watching the LCD), she clicks off photos at a rate that makes you want to jump for joy. We put them on the shelf right away, because our boss wanted to rub it in the faces of the other stores in the area. One of my co-workers ever managed to sell one to a lucky early adopter. I gotta say, this is the SLR I want!

Ever notice how all digital cameras (>$100) do the same thing equally well? Why pay more?

My god! If I had the money to spend, this is THE camera to get.

I love photography and I do it on the side when I'm out-and-about. A friend got me into photography.

I've been keeping up-to-date with this camera, and I am just giddy with joy that it's coming out. I hope someone is nice enough to give me this for my birthday. *hint, hint*

(*whispers* It's Oct. 29. ~.^ )

The camera is pretty freaking sweet, very heavy, great pictures and video (checked them out on my laptop). We got 3 in at Ritz yesterday, within 2 hours had sold two of them off, but the rain in the area meant almost no one else stopped in for anything so we still have one... going to stick it in the glass display up front today to show off in front of all the other stores in the district... who have NONE! ha.. Why we got 3 vrs a store that actually has good sales records is beyond me...

Got mine at Best Buy in Twin Falls, ID this morning. It was not on display but there was 1 box sitting there in the lockbox under the display cabinet :)

BS I saw it yesterday at ritz camera, in Brea Mall, they had it out ready to be sold, I played with it and D movie is truly AWESOME, the camera feels very sturdy, a real evolution over my poor little XSi ...

To all who have dissed my photo taking skills.... IT IS A CELL PHONE (t-mobile DASH) that has taken these pictures. I guess I was so excited to finally get it open, and got blown away by its beauty, I didn't bother using another SLR to shows the d90's grace.

Kissimmee, FL store if anyone has any questions.... ask for the guy with the creepy ring.

with all this hype over the hd video recording capabilities, one question comes to my mind - how much memory would we require to record say 10min at the highest setting?
