Hi Grant! Such a great camera! I bought mine 14 years ago together with the 18-55mm and the 55-200mm for 900 EUR. This year I traded (at MPB) the 55-200mm with the amazing 35mm and the 70-300mm for less than 200 EUR!!! What a joy of camera, solid, reliable, amazing image quality and a battery that lasts forever. Many times I go for shooting together with my G9. The D90 can be found between 75-90-120 in MPB Europe depending on the condition; good-very good-excellent, some of them with shutter count less than 10,000. It is difficult to resist to these prices when you see cameras at 1,000 EUR that look like toys and deliver images with a debatable quality.

Hi Grant. I used to shoot Nikon DSLRs in the early to mid 2000s before switching over to micro fours thirds (Olympus bodies with Olympus and Panasonic lenses). I recently went to Hawaii and took one camera body of each system with a few lenses. I took the Olympus with me for hikes and street photos and the Nikon for places we drove to like a Luau and the beaches. I haven't shot my Nikon D300 for a few years. To be honest, I had more keepers with my Olympus E-P5, but I really enjoyed both cameras. Both systems have their own strengths and weaknesses and I will start shooting my DSLRs more. Thanks for the great video

I don't have a D90 but I do own & use my D70s that I love taking pics with it.... although I upgraded to a D7100 & then a D500 the D70s is something different & still takes great pics with any of my F mount lenses... cheers 👍😀

[@waynecox5138]

I indicated I have a GX85 coming tomorrow. Additionally I have a Canon 5D MK2 coming. I started as a Canon shooter and have lenses. My motivation is similar to yours.

[@RiiC94]

I bought one because of your videos and I have so much fun using it! So great! Thank You!

[@grantrobertdavies]

Great to hear!

[@roywales4444]

Another good quick look at the D90. Glad I have one in my collection and sure is fun to use!

[@richardwalker4518]

A while ago I picked up a super clean D90 for tiny money, as have a few old vintage Nikkor lenses and thought a cheap F mount digital camera had a place in the collection. I didn't realise, however, that the D90 doesn't meter with the older AI / AIS lenses, so that was a bit of a flub, as mine are all manual lenses. I traded it in on a D700 instead, but after using it for a while (lovely though the images are), I realised I'm just too spoiled by modern mirrorless. The D700 is a heavy beast and you have to have the will to pack it, which is hard when its competition weights less than half and sits in the palm of your hand. Also, with the Fuji film sims and some adapted classic glass, I can get the look I'm after in the jpeg and the dynamic range is better. I think I've probably hit radical acceptance that the DSLR days are over for me. On the other hand, if you just want a great camera on the super cheap, grab the D90 and a couple of nice AF D lenses and you'll be very happy!

[@rudyrulz1784]

Same here for it few weeks back, manual lens, no AF lens😅, any tips regarding getting sharp photos, and metering workaround

[@lemonkng3188]

Nothing wrong with older cameras. I still want to buy a Canon 5D Classic. I wish I knew this I was buying my first camera and spent my cash on glass.

[@ontarioproductions7712]

Great video man. Thank you.

[@grantrobertdavies]

Glad you liked it!

[@giakii]

Hi, yes you could make a video with the settings you use, thanks in advance.

[@brianmcgrevey9832]

Thanks Grant, looking forward to more topic’s. B

[@martinwiedmann8584]

Yeah - the D90 ist great, i had one a couple of years ago. One downside was the poor af performance in live view but the quality of the pictures was fantastic and the battery lasted for ages. When my D90 broke I bought a E-M10ii and last year a OM-1.

[@grantrobertdavies]

Cool
