Ever since the D50, the low end has had no bracketing and no B/W status LCD. It is clearly being used by Nikon to distinguish the higher-end models.

They just put different viewfinder and moved it a little higher to make place for bigger screen. No, unfortunately, it want be able to rotate, no more then D40 flash.

Most of the existing ones will work just fine if you leave them flat against the camera, and I imagine this new screen will be the same :) If you don’t like it, don’t use it.

Then why does the very bottom of Canon's current lineup (the 1000D) have both bracketing and an AF motor? Are you suggesting that the D90 is a similar quality of product to the 1000D?

Like the focus motor, it wasn't left out on low end cameras because they lacked the technology. Don't expect it to suddenly appear there any more than you would expect a return of the in-body focus motor. Bracketing is a D90-grade camera feature.

There are OTHER PEOPLE out there who can't afford a $3000 camera and are just starting out. Not to mention, the D40 is definitely getting on--Canon has replaced the XTi twice over since the D40 was introduced. I feel like you are one member signing into a bunch of different names, whining whenever a DX lens or body is introduced. GTFO and don't come back. What the heck do you want???

No confusion. Just the other day I was having trouble explaining D300 and D700 is not in the same class (dx/fx) to a friend of mine who don't know Nikon, this might just help solve the problem. After they ran out of names, they could go this route. DX single digit, double digit, triple digit, then FX... etc etc.. I suppose D300 class camera will become DX# since it's the highest grade DX format Nikon has. Then D90 and D60 class will have separate digit numbers (Maybe they'll give the D90 a 3 digit number, who knows, Nikon's way maybe). For FX, would be nice if they separate them into 3 grades as well, those we know for now, and maybe a cheaper solution with no bells and whistles, slower in operation but then good sensor in it.

Well this looks like it might be able to rotate up. There was something about that on this site some time ago. I dont think a small pop up bounce flash will do much good but hell I never thought on camera flashes did much good. =) On the pop up flash. -
