Bought my D90 into 2008...and sold it into 2013, finally. Still, have been nostalgic over it, and guess what? Just bought it again - because of the memories....even i own the D700 & D7000. 🙂
That's a good service from this camera. This screen has a lot to show. I don't understand much as a beginner with a camera, I only have smartphone Xiaomi Leica.
I have a D300 and think it's pretty great! It is my first DSLR (my first camera - not including cellphones - was an L840). They say that DSLR's are dead and mirrorless is the way going forward. Bit that also means that there are plenty of quite capable DSLR's out there that still have a lot to offer often at very reasonable prices. The only thing that I find really limiting about the D300 is its high ISO/low-light performance. But even at that, something like the 35 f/1.8 G helps and I honestly don't do a whole lot of low-light shooting.
Yeah, I went on a used camera buying spree just recently. My intention was/is to have a body for every lens I own so that I can just pick up a bag and go for whatever my intention was to shoot. I certainly didn't spend a lot of money, (at least not by photographic standards), but I sure bagged a lot of goodies. D3300, D5200, D7200, Nikkor 16-80 f2.8 to 4.0, and last but not least, a Tamron 100 to 400 f4.5 to 6.3 which I was out front with tonight taking pictures of the "Harvest super moon". Thank god for image stabilization. The tripod can stay in the closet. I'm sure I could have had a single mirrorless body for those bucks, but then, what would I do for a lens?
I have a D90 that I always paired with a 80 to 200 mm 2.8 AF-D zoom. (screwdriver two twist) I used to go to the local zoo quite often. Recently, I had occasion to go through those old photos. I'm pretty pleased with those images. (And shamelessly myself for taking them). The lens is in the shop now. (After 24 years and carried over from film why wouldn't it be?) But AFAIK, the D90 is still kicking. One caveat with the D90's low pixel count, it's sort of useless for wildlife. You need 20 to 24 mp so that you have some leeway to crop. You simply can't keep buying longer and longer lenses. (At least I can't).
I think D90 is between two eras in colors. After it, the cameras shoot more realistically, but somehow not as beautifully as the previous models, just in my opinion. When I had to buy my first DSLR, many people advised me to buy the D90, here in my region it was legendary, but in the end I bought the D3200, just the video capabilities and the price were my priority. Now I almost never use the D3200 for photography, it's boring realism. I never got the D90 anyway, I think I don't like its colors more than the d80. So I don't think it would contribute more positives to me than the d80, except for a little better light sensitivity of the sensor. I like it, there are unique photographs taken with it, but having a d80 I don't need it. For now, you know this camera thing is like a disease, you want one, then another, you end up with more cameras than space, it's scary :D Good video by the way and very nice photos! You have a sense and skills for photography, I'm not that good a photographer, I just collect them and take them for a walk. A video comparison between d90 and d80 would be interesting. I'm not completely familiar with their differences.
I was thinking about putting in some D80 photos, but the subjects were too different. So I'm thinking about doing a comparison when there are more autumn colors. Yeah it's becoming a bit too many cameras to handle, I think I will have to challenge myself by not buying any cameras next year and focus on taking pictures instead :D Thanks for liking my photos and for watching!
Hmm, I might do that in the future, at the moment I have a bit of a backlog to work through. For shooting in manual, In short: you need to read the light meter in the camera and then set the ISO, aperture and shutter accordingly... but yeah it makes more sense to show in a video.
I shot with the D90 for four years, great camera! Great video, thanks!
I'm on my second D90 now and keep coming back to it. It takes absolutely DREAMY photos in the right conditions. ❤

Yeah nostalgia can be quite powerful!

That's true, the resolution is a big limitation for wildlife.

Can I connect it with my android phone as a monitor?
There is HDMI output, so I guess it's possible
@mikaelrphoto thank you
