I am a professional photographer, and for me, this does everything a camera needs to do, without being tarted up with needless gadgets. I like a larger, "beefier" camera as I was a newspaper photographer for many years, and with the grip attached, it has the feel of the Nikon "pro" cameras of yore. The question of image quality is 90% dependent on the lens. Poor quality lenses will produce poor quality photographs. Excellent lenses coupled with a skilled photographer will produce great results. The D90 body is solid, controls logically placed, and it is "Tank rugged" for very high dependability. Some may wish to upgrade to get "the latest & greatest", but for solid photographic performance the D90 does the job very well for me. Every day!

I have upgraded to multiple Nikon DSLR DX bodies over time but keeping coming back to D90. It’s a masterpiece from Nikon, the picture quality with 35mm/50mm 1.8 prime or with 18-105 VR, overall features and ease of use of this camera are just outstanding. Unless upgrading to FX to use standard lens, I have never felt the need to upgrade to pricy new DX models just because they have higher pixel sensor. You can’t go wrong with D90 decision even today. Save money o buy better lens - prime, all Purpose and ultra wide.

The Nikon D90 was introduced around 2009-2010 or so. This camera body coupled with the Nikon 18-200 f3.5-5.6 VR lens is the ultimate travel setup. The photos coming out of this pairing are exquisite; it is very difficult to get bad photos out of it. I was shocked to find that there are still brand-new D90 bodies out there. The D90 body I purchased brand new in 2010 just gave up the ghost; it got water logged last year in Hawaii and has been going down hill ever since. I didn’t have $1000 to spend on the newest equivalent Nikon offering (D7500) and didn’t feel like learning how to use another new camera. This brand new D90 was a god-send. I figured since it was sitting at a store for the last 10 years, there would be at least some scratches on it - but nope, Brand-spankin’ new with 0 clicks on the shutter.Read full review

These are great cameras and take wonderful pictures. They are perfect for learning on or for some one just looking for a camera to take pictures of their kids. The lower megapixels make the camera very forgiving and easy to get great pictures. Higher the megapixel counts require much better technique in camera handling. This camera has many features and will continue servicing a photogracher well into the upper intermediate range.

The D90 is an excellant camera for the serious beginer. This camera offers the new user the opportunity use this complex camera to take beautiful photos with little skill. Taking photos in auto mode produces professional looking photos and offers the student the chance to take the same photo in various settings to learn the result of each setting. The D90 is excellant value. Look for a low shutter activation count. The life of the shutter is about 1000000 activations while many last for more activations one hundred thousand is the yardstick used to measure the D90. Use the cash saved to buy a great lens.
