| Review summary | Like the D80 before it, the Nikon D90 delivers an excellent dSLR for the money. It's the first digital SLR camera with video recording, which is great, especially since it's shot in 1,280x720-pixel motion JPEG at 24fps, giving it a cinematic, high-definition look. You can also shoot video with any lens, which yields interesting effects Read full review |
Canon's EOS-1D Mark III offers a luxurious cocktail of high-resolution, extremely low noise, blazingly fast burst shooting, abundant customisation and a build quality and ergonomic design among the best you'll find in today's camera market Read full review |
Nikon's flagship dSLR packs a full-frame 12-megapixel sensor and is a highly versatile imaging powerhouse that lets photographers create images previously impossible to capture. As long as you can get used to this camera's solid weight, it's a definite step up from the D2Xs and produces high-quality photography. This one is definitely aimed at the pros, so amateurs beware Read full review |
The Canon EOS 7D offers awesome continuous-shooting speeds, an excellent HD movie mode with full manual controls, class-leading resolution, excellent high-ISO performance, and an all-metal, weather-sealed body. It's got a couple of glitches, but it's a corking camera Read full review |
