  • All things considered, the Nikon D90 is a very capable camera. At its present asking price it offers fair value for the consumer interested in aiming their image-making sights higher. Gavin Stoker Lowest online price: ££619.99 ...

  • Whether you’re just making the move to a digital SLR or trading up from a budget shooter, the D90 holds your hand where it’s useful and gives you a kick up the arse when you need it. Competent, classy and well worth the money, almost for the m...

  • From reading this review you may have realised that I was very impressed with the D90, and this is from someone who has never bought or owned a Nikon camera. My allegiance has always been elsewhere but the D90 could easily change this. The camera is ai...
