Here is an interesting beginning of a guide coming up about Nikon D90

“Nikon D90. At 12 MP, and with the list of cool features I outline below, the D90 serves three purposes in the Nikon line.  It’s easy enough to use to serve as a first dSLR, and won’t overwhelm anyone who wants to move slowly into more advanced features.  And yet, those features are in there, ready for you when you’re ready for them.  It also makes a great upgrade from the D80, and works as a backup camera for those with a D300 or other more advanced Nikon body.  Other than the flexibility you get with the D300’s four Shooting banks/four Custom Setting banks, you don’t lose much by going with the D90.  I’ll know more when I can compare sensors and high ISO image quality between the D300 and D90. I expect to see the D90 sell for about $999 with the 18-55mm VR lens, which makes it only about $50 more than the current price of the D80 with that lens.  If you read on, you’ll see just what you get for that extra fifty bucks. ”

Photokina 2008 is coming up in about six weeks (Sept. 23-28)! Here is a summary of the rumors laying around: the Nikon D3X - a 24MP or 38MP full frame (FX) camera that should cost around $6,000 - $10,000.

According to Digitalfreak, Nikon D3x should bring us:

 

 

Short time ahead of Photokina, Nikon has announced its flagship compact, the Coolpix P6000. Built around a 13.5 megapixel, 1/1.72 inch sensor (0.41 square cm), the camera has a 4x zoom starting at a very useful 28mm equivalent lens. It also records RAW files in a new NRW format that can be converted in-camera or with the forthcoming Windows version of View NX or Windows Imaging Component compatible applications. The other stand-out feature is the inclusion of built-in GPS logging of the locations at which images were recorded. It is expected to start shipping in September for around $500/£429.99/€575.00.

Nikon D700 does to Nikon what the 5D did to Canon at the moment it was released: puts a full frame, ‘FX’ format sensor into a more compact body and at a much lower price. Along with being smaller and lighter than the flagship D3, it’s also comfortably cheaper, making the D700 Nikon’s first ‘affordable’ full-frame DSLR. Like Canon’s EOS 5D, this puts it within reach of well-heeled enthusiasts who demand excellent performance at high sensitivities, along with pros looking for a backup body.

We were all curious, the moment it was rumored, about how it would perform when compared to the much more expensive and feature-packed D3. Cameralabs.com does the comparision for us, providing full resolution samples at high ISO speeds. Follow the read link for more.

Nikon D700 vs Nikon D300 vs Canon EOS 5D High ISO Noise

Â

To compare noise levels under real-life conditions we shot this scene with the Nikon D700, Nikon D300 and Canon EOS 5D within a few moments of each other using each of their ISO settings in Aperture Priority modes. The lenses on each camera were adjusted to deliver the same field of view.

 

The D700 and D300 were fitted with the same Nikkor AF-S 14-24mm lens, set to 24mm on the D700 and 16mm on the D300. The Canon EOS 5D was fitted with the Canon EF 17-40mm set to 24mm. The lens focal lengths were fine-tuned so the field-of-view was exactly matched.

All three bodies were set to their best quality JPEG modes with default settings for image processing and noise reduction. As such, both Nikons were set to Large Fine JPEG quality (optimised for quality), with Auto White Balance and the default Standard Picture Control, Normal High ISO NR and Active D-Lighting switched off.

With Photokina just around the corner, no wonder we see so many camera rumors floating around. Next in line, the Nikon D90. We have seen some specifications  and they are not bad at all: 12 megapixels, Live View, video mode (necessitating a built-in mic), HDMI out, optional GPS. If this proves to be true, than the D90 would be a worthy successor of D80. Still looking to find out more about a possible D3x. It’ll ship in a kit with an 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G zoom lens and should hit the streets at under $1000 if it keeps with the D80’s pricing, as is expected.

Seriously, we’ve been hearing about the EOS 7D for well over a year now, with the chatter predictably heating up before every major trade show — and with just over a month before Photokina, it’s happening all over again. Hopefully Canon actually has this semi-legendary $1,899 full-frame DSLR to show us this time — the 5D is getting pretty ancient. We have no way of knowing if this image is real or not, but anything is possible
