D5000 FTW!]]>Jun 12th 2009 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/
The D90 has a front and rear wheel the D5000 only seems to have a rear wheel. If you actually know how to shoot manual you'll know that this extra control is worth it's weight in gold.... ok the wheel probably doesn't weigh much so lets say "worth a million times it's weight in gold" LOL]]>Jun 12th 2009 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://bit.ly/3VwGU . The ergonomics, controls and pentaprism make a huge difference. ]]>Jun 12th 2009 12:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 10:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 10:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 11:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 11:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 12:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 2:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/

In this day and age with such good DSLRs, I reckon it either comes down to price, features, ergonomics or brand loyalty. Certainly not outright quality, with Photoshop or RAW converters being able to do a fair bit of enhancing.

I'm personally a Canon man for their ergonomics. I look at Nikon bodies and see lots of buttons all over it and as a manual shooter, I like Canon's lack of buttons better. With my 20D, it's just a case of setting exposure, aperture and focus and my right hand can do the adjustments, the left hand can do the focusing. I don't need quick access to features, so the extra buttons I perceive on Nikon to be quick access ones aren't needed.]]>Jun 13th 2009 11:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 11:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/
For me, the difference between the D90 kit and the D5000 was about 150 bucks. Its well worth it just for that lens.

But if you want something more portable, the D5000 is smaller and lighter.]]>Jun 12th 2009 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/
The D90 will also do video but it's not great, which is pretty much what you'd expect for a product that does something new first - this is something that is being improved upon constantly now.]]>Jun 13th 2009 7:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/
Yeah, I mean after all who would want better glass for a lower price?]]>Jun 12th 2009 11:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 12:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/]]>Jun 12th 2009 12:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 12:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jul 23rd 2009 1:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 12th 2009 4:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/
The absolute #1 most important thing about a camera is the lens. If you've spend thousands of dollars on quality lenses, no way would you switch manufacturer.]]>Jun 12th 2009 5:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/
Although the camera's megapixel count is nice and it offers live-view, it's unfortunate that the images are fuzzy smooth, as in, not real sharp. In some cases, I know it's because of the lousy zoom lens used, but in other cases of a fixed 35 mm, it still looked not-sharp. I'm still probably going to buy it though, because I think my lenses will produce better results than those samples.]]>Jun 12th 2009 5:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/
It wasn't until I found a review site with pictures taken in Yosemite - as opposed to the bland Thames like on DPReview - that I realised the G10 is capable of inspirational images if inspirational subjects are sampled.]]>Jun 13th 2009 12:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 13th 2009 12:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/ picks]]>Jun 13th 2009 12:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/Jun 13th 2009 1:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/nikons-d5000-gets-reviewed-in-staggering-detail/So, please don't brainstorm on figures, blog technical tests, magazine reviews and so on but prefer to go to your preferred store and take the D5000 (or whatever) in your hands, point, shoot, grab the stuff, and so on. It's like a woman ; if your eyes, your fingers and your hands appreciate, forget the pedigree and the friend's reviews and get it !

By the way, I wrote some less dumb words about my first contact with Nikon D5000 :
