Nikon announce the introduction of its newest DX-format digital SLR, the D90 camera. The new D90 comes with a stunning 12.3-megapixel image quality, broad control and the world’s first digital SLR movie function combine to deliver unsurpassed creative freedom in a D-SLR. The D90’s image sensor and 12.3 effective megapixels combine with Nikon’s exclusive EXPEED image processing to deliver outstanding images featuring fine details, smooth tones, rich colors and low noise across a wide ISO sensitivity range. More than just a new camera, the D90 represents a new era of digital SLR fun and creativity. The D90 is the world’s first digital SLR camera with a movie shooting function that delivers genuinely cinematic results, enhanced by the creatively shallow depth of field made possible by the DX-format sensor. This is further refined by the optical quality and broad selection of NIKKOR lenses — the same lenses relied upon by professional photographers the world over. Thanks to the D90’s large image sensor, D-Movie images exhibit less noise than those of a typical camcorder, most notably in low-light situations. (more…)
