Me Wantee!
I’ve been using the lowly D70 for years, and, as a part-time professional, I am well aware of its limitations. Had I not bought the flagship F5 just before digital caught fire, I’d have surely bought one of the top-of-the-line digital bodies. Alas.
Tonight I read about the new Nikon D90. Blimey! it looks spectacular! The most appealing thing to me is that this is the first Nikon SLR that shoots video–720p high definition–and it supports geo-tagging, which is something I have longed for since I began using Flickr.
Christmas is coming!
UPDATE: So, it turns out that the video mode doesn’t allow autofocus. That makes sense, since the mirror would be locked up during video. Less than ideal, but still, a step up.
