Hi, can anyone tell me of a good program that I can use to put my d90’s photos on a video with music? I’ve used Windows Movie Maker and Windows Photo Story 3, and Photo Story is ok, but I’d like one that had better resolution of my photos. I’d prefer a program that is free, but if there is one I can buy that is awesome, I’d go for it. Also, Photo Story let me burn a dvd, but I could only view it on my computer, not my tv. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Look.

The HD movie is a plus. Agreed, it makes it more expensive, and it’s (the video taking) not fantastic: it can’t auto-focus during recording, and it doesn’t have great cinematography capabilities, but it does beat colour quality on a normal camcorder.

It’s just handy if you happen to need one. And hey, it’s HD.

The CMOS sensor is a definite plus, giving it low noise, which I have checked out and it’s proven to be true. Image quality is better than even the K20D (Pentax), in my opinion.

Live View can get a bit slow to open, but starting time and shutter lag are low.

Only let down is price, and most commonly offered lens. I’d rather get the 18-55mm and 55-200mm (both VR) twin kit lens… and thankfully, it’s offered.

In Australia, D90 twin lens VR kit is (at cheapest) $1700. But I daresay it’s worth it.

Have the Nikon D90. Love the quality I am getting. Find some of the buttons a little cumbersome for my hands, including the movie record button( OK )but, as you stated, being able to take movies is convenient. My wife is a teacher and we take lots of Pic’s of the kids performing, as well as our grandkids,…example the choris singing & or, kids playing sports. If you create slide shows,the stills are beautiful, with a movie in between actually seeing and hearing the kids is out of sight!Love the camera, being new to DSLR’s, and coming from very advanced point and shoot camers, with lot’s of features. Tried them all….this one is a keeper!

On the video capability of this camera;
I think it is better to have it when you don’t need it,
than not to have it when you need it!
I think it is a good camera/lens combination for a hobbyist.

I think for the video is not a plus factor but it is for amateur. Becuase if your a photographer you will only focus on still photos. It seems that nikon has no innovation that they can add in their D90 that is why they included the video. Of course, if you want to be a videographer you would buy a good video camera and not a DSLR. I’m just doubtful on the quality of the video since it would be stored on an sd card, i believe that DV tapes would show better videos.This makes D90 as a consumer camera rather than for serious hobbyist camera.

I want one!! I love my D80 but have wished at times that I had the option to switch to video during some real exciting
situations while on a shoot! Thank you Nikon!!
