I was going to buy the D80 until Nikon announced the D90. Are there huge advantages (apart from the video recording and the 2MP difference) between those two?

SDHC basically means faster access speeds and bigger storage, for the inflated price. The biggest SD standard cards are 8GB while biggest SDHC cards are 32GB and may rise to a maximum of 2TB. If you want the fastest access times possible (e.g. for multiple shots)or bigger space for movies, SDHC has more expandability as the price will definately come down within the next year or two. But its your preference.

You can probably get along quite happily for a few years with the 8GB SD. But id rather go with the high-capacity SDHC cards.

"Egg consolidation* fans will delight at the launch of the World's first 'class 6' 32GB SDHC memory card. Panasonic unveiled a prototype of the capacious card, capable of sustained write speeds of at least 6MB/sec and maximum data speeds of up to 20MB/sec." - Dpreview

With regards to nikon d90 as i recal it uses SD card and also SDHC. Whats the advantage of using SDHC? Whats the desired write speed of the SD card for this camera? SD cards are cheap. Is it advisable to use an 8 gig SD card????

looking forward for anybody’s reply or comment thanks

Circuit city’s website says the D90 will ship 9/7/08. Kinda weird to be on a Sunday, no?

If it uses the same chip as the D300 there will be no noise. I shot some pix of my grandson on my D300 believing that the speed was set to 200 ISO. When I checked the ‘info’ in Photoshop when looking at some full screen images, I discovered I had left it on 2000 ISO from the previous evening. Absolutely no noise anywhere, even in the shadows.

just because a lens is made cheaper and mostly plastic does mean it’s crap. I use the 28-80mm f/3.3-4.5G lens on my D700 and it’s a sharp lens. I like it if I want a nice light set up for the day. I have the 18-55mm VR also and it’s a great one to for my D40 and D300.

damn those security code’s!!!! keep f’ing forgetting to typo them in.

My bad SteMa, i was thinking about D-Lighting, that D60 have it too. Anyway i hope that D90 will have that CA auto removal.

I like the focus sistem Nikon have (my D50 have). Anyway many users complain about the mettering sistem . I remember Thom Hogan said on dpreview forums that the mettering implementation in the D80 was tweaked to have more shadows details then preserving highligts.

Does the D60 really remove CA? :S I don’t think so.

Finally nikon gets to the same level of high iso quality as canon does And lot of you is worried about the metering system used: did you really have problems with it on the d80? I for one choosing nikon because of the exposure system (including flash exposure), and build quality (feels good in hand). And my friend’s canon 400d misses exposures, and it’s been reported that it does in forums several times. Another thing is the focus on canons. When he was doing portraits, the focus missed ~80% of the time (both back and front focus) under incandescent lighting. What’s the problem with the CAM1000 focusing system?

I think it will have the Expeed processor that does the CA correction (as you can see on the D60 too). It’s the latest processor Nikon have, so if they used on d300 and on d60… it should be on d90 too

I wonder why only one person in this blog cares about a feature that helps improving image quality. The CA correction (of D300) in JPGs is the thing why I would buy this Camera. I am much more concerned, if the micro grid is a weak point for moisture getting in the camera. If this is the case, I have to buy Pentax because the D300 is too heavy and expensive for me.

OK, that sounds logic. And what do you guys think about the frames-per-second capability?

I’m sure it has the Expeed processor. Well, it’s even in the D60!
