Nikon Europe announced the revolutionary Nikon D3 Professional Digital SLR that defines a new benchmark in professional photography. ?Nikon has eclipsed the competition with the Nikon D3, a cutting edge camera that will change how professional photographers take pictures,? said Robert Cristina, Manager Professional Products & IPS, Nikon Europe BV. ?The incredible speed, resolution and flexibility of the Nikon D3 digital SLR camera will enable photographers to capture images under conditions previously thought impossible.? The Nikon D3 single lens reflex, the result of years of development and feedback from professional photographers, combines many innovative Nikon technologies.

Nikon D3 digital SLR camera - Dimensions and Availability
These include an exclusive 12.1 effective megapixel FX format (36.0x23.9mm) image sensor with 12-channel read out, a blazing-fast 9 fps frame rate, expandable ISO settings from 200-6400, a completely new 51-Point autofocus system, a 3-inch VGA LCD screen with Live View and a cutting-edge image processing system. The D3 body measures 159.5 (W) ?157 (H) ?87 (D) mm and weighs 1,390 grams including battery. It will be available in Europe from November 2007.

Nikon D3 single lens reflex - Image sensor and Sensitivity
The new Nikon D3 FX format CMOS imaging sensor was designed from the ground up to offer exceptional light transmission properties, so photographers can acquire outstanding image quality even in low light conditions. With a high signal to noise ratio, a pixel pitch 15% larger than competitive cameras, gapless surface micro-lenses, high-quality images under very low light levels are now possible. The sensor enables an ISO settings range from 200-6400, expandable up to the equivalent of 25,600 or down to 100.

Nikon D3 D-SLR camera - EXPEED Image Processing System
The EXPEED image processing system is at the heart of the D3?s ability to capture and process massive amounts of data at high definition. The EXPEED system includes both hardware and years of Nikon image processing know-how. The Nikon D3 EXPEED system features 14-bit analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion with 16-bit image processing, both of which contribute to delivering results with Nikon?s signature ?look and feel? of rich accurate colours, smooth skin gradations and exceptional detail.

Nikon D3 camera - Scene Recognition System
In another first, the D3 features a radical new approach to calculating exposures and white balance with intelligent support for Autofocus tracking performance as well. At the heart of the Scene Recognition System is Nikon?s renowned 1005-pixel RGB metering sensor that has been modified to distinguish subjects shape and position for improved auto exposure and Autofocus accuracy.

Nikon D3 digital SLR - Autofocus and AF module
Building on years of development through both the analogue and digital SLR era, Nikon has once again raised the bar for optical Autofocus systems. The Nikon D3 and D300 feature a completely new 51-Point autofocus system designed to acquire and track subjects? movement more accurately. The result of intensive studies into how professional sports and news photographers use autofocus, the Multi-CAM3500 AF module features the most AF points ever developed for a SLR camera. The inspired coupling of the AF module with Nikon?s easy-to-use 8-direction multi selector button makes selecting instant individual AF points simple and fast. As one would expect the AF system can be completely customized for every possible shooting condition.

Nikon D3 - Responsiveness and Lag time
The image quality of the Nikon D3 is combined with outstanding frame rate options. At 9 fps, the Nikon D3 is the world?s fastest FX format D-SLR, with an even faster 11fps (Autofocus tracking disabled) consecutive shooting possible in DX crop mode. A second crop mode is also premiered in the Nikon D3, with 5:4 (30mm x 24mm) aspect ratio. Shutter release time lag is an imperceptible 41 milliseconds (CIPA standard), while the image sensor?s integrated high-speed 12-channel readout contributes both to burst speed and Live View performance. The Nikon D3 DSLR also gets to work quickly; startup time is just 0.12 seconds and mirror black out is a mere, class leading 74ms.

Nikon D3 professional SLR camera - Shutter unit and D-Lighting
The new professional Nikon D3 incorporates an all-new Nikon manufactured shutter unit tested to over 300,000 cycles. The shutter blades are constructed from a durable composite Kevlar and carbon fibre material to deliver unmatched durability and accuracy even in the most demanding of conditions. The Active D-Lighting feature of the Nikon D3 adds to its JPEG capabilities. Prior to shooting under high contrast conditions, users can apply a pre-set curve that processes images with improved shadow and highlight details, without affecting overall contrast.

Nikon D3 system camera - Picture control and Customize
Nikon?s new Picture Control system, developed with the help of extensive feedback from photographers, offers improved productivity for JPEG shooters. Picture Control lets users of all levels manage and customize the appearance of their images in camera. This on-board processing saves significant post processing time. With a variety of default settings, photographers can also customize and share settings. Nikon anticipates photographic communities might develop their own Picture Control settings for specific subjects and conditions. Picture Control replaces the existing Color Mode settings of current Nikon cameras.

Nikon D3 D-SLR - High Definition and Live view
Everything about the Nikon D3 is high definition. From the HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) port for output to the latest HD displays to the 3-inch VGA LCD screen with 170-degree viewing angle, images can be played back at very high levels of detail. The new VGA screen also comes into its own when using the new Live View function premiered in the Nikon D3 and D300. Unlike other live view technologies, autofocus is possible in all Nikon Live View modes.

Nikon D3 SLR - Storage and Card slots
The Nikon D3 is the world?s first D-SLR to offer dual CompactFlash card slots for outstanding storage flexibility. A photographer can shoot images to each card one after the other, or simultaneously, as back up. When shooting combined NEF + JPEG files, the NEF image can be written to one card and the JPEG version to the other. Image files can also be selected and copied from one card to the other after shooting.

Nikon D3 - Alloy and Body
Long the choice of professionals Nikon SLRs are renowned for withstanding the most challenging conditions. From freezing temperatures of the arctic to the humidity of the rainforest, Nikons keep working long after other cameras have ceased to operate, and the Nikon D3 is built to continue this tradition. Magnesium alloy is used for the exterior cover, chassis and mirror box, while the seams and buttons of the camera body are sealed against the affects of dust and moisture.

Nikon D3 professional D-SLR - Wireless networking
Nikon pioneered wireless image transmission. Now, with the new Nikon Wireless Transmitter WT-4 (WT-4 versions vary according to regional/national radio frequency regulations), the era of the multi camera network has arrived. Not only can one transmit (?push?) images to servers and remotely control the camera from afar, the Nikon WT-4 also enables remote browsing of the camera?s image thumbnails as well. In a wireless environment, networks of up to 5 Nikon D3 and D300 cameras can be established. At a sports event, for example, photo editors could browse all thumbnails on each camera simultaneously, selecting (?pulling?) the images they need, while the photographers continue shooting.

Nikkor lenses - Telephoto and Zoom
Five new NIKKOR lenses are also launched today. They include a ground-breaking extreme wide-angle zoom lens, the AF-S 14-24mm f/2.8G ED and a slim line standard zoom, the AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED. Nikon has also launched three all-new super telephoto lenses with VR (Vibration Reduction), the AF-S 400mm f/2.8G ED VR, AF-S 500mm f/4G ED VR and AF-S 600mm f/4G ED VR.

Nikon S9100 review
The Nikon camera zoom function S9100 not can only be used during the filming of images, but also during video recording. The Nikon compact camera S9100 is able to shoot Full HD movies with stereo sound. Macro photo shooting panoramic images to a mere 1.5 cm distance and 360° is some of the possibilities. Nikon S9100 s screen remains unchanged. The large screen 3 "LCD with 921,000 pixels employs Nikon's clear color Display, which reduces power consumption and reflections, even under strong sunlight.

Photokina 2010 reviews: Nikon is extending its D-series with a new SLR camera, the Nikon D7000. This is part of a nice series of SLR cameras, the D3100, D5000 and now also the Nikon D7000. To Nikon D9000 might just be the next model The new Nikon D7000 is a whole new DSLR camera generation and falls between the Nikon D5000 and D90, at least in terms of pricing. The D90 is still part of the picture, at least until it gets a successor (the Nikon D9000?). This Nikon DSLR is a camera aimed at the serious amateur photographer and offers a full package of camera-settings for creative photography as well as videography, as the Nikon D7000 supports Full HD 1080p video.

Nikon D7000 review
The fast growth of the DSLR market led to what seemed to be a wild growth of stripped DSLR cameras that served as beginner-level DSLR cameras, or extended with a few upgrades in order to be attractive. There was, however, no true innovation of the DSLR camera. The opposite happened with the system cameras, such as Micro Four Thirds, Sony Alpha NEX and the Samsung NX series. Is the Nikon D7000 truly an innovation or is it an evolution? Our first impression is that the Nikon D7000 is evolution: a DSLR camera with many new and improved features. The Nikon D7000 is equipped with a whole newly developed DX-format CMOS sensor with 16.2 effective Megapixels. This new image sensor is much more sensitive and delivers a basic ISO-range of 100-6400 ISO with the possibility of boosting the sensitivity up to ISO 25600.

Review Nikon D7000
With the Nikon D7000 and the recently introduced D3100, Nikon is setting a new trend within the Nikon camera family, which is a clear increase in the amount of effective pixels. Right now, a situation has emerged in which the amateur series of Nikon DSLR cameras have a resolution of 10-16 Megapixels and the semi-professional and professional DSLR cameras almost all have 12, and the D3x have 24 Megapixels. The expectation is that a shift will also take place in the Pro cameras. If that will be before the end of the year is still up in the air. The 16 Megapixels resolution is processed by the new and fast EXPEED processor 2. This powerful processor forms the core of the camera and processes complex calculations. Such a source of power is not for nothing, as it not only delivers high-resolution photos, but the Nikon D7000 also supports Full HD video (1080p). There is yet more specialization, from the videographer and camera crew sector, and we see all kinds of creative productions appear from that sector. Although at first there was a lot of criticism for DSLR video and, this criticism is now being phased out to make room for often impressive HD video clips.

Digital SLR camera Nikon D7000
The new Nikon D7000 is expected to challenge the amateur to shoot video in Full HD. Continual focusing, although this is not as speedy as it is during photography, makes shooting video a lot simpler. The video clips are recorded in MPEG4 h. 264 compression and can be enhanced by connecting an external stereo. If you want to do more serious filming with the Nikon D7000, you will have to consider using an external microphone. The serious filmmaker will edit video with special video editing software. Yet, there is an even faster and perhaps for the amateur, simpler way of doing this. The Nikon D7000 has special video editing software built into the camera. You can quickly edit video material on location, according to your own wishes. For more serious work it may not be adequate, but for a large target group, this is an effective solution.

Nikon D7000 DSLR camera
The Nikon D7000 may not be called a semi-professional DSLR camera, but the camera has surprising and impressive specifications. The room is equipped with a nice optical viewfinder with almost 100% image coverage and 0.94 magnification. That is quite a luxury and very pleasant during photography. The camera's finishing is typically Nikon. It is substantial, solid, and very well finished, complete with protection against sand, dust and moisture. The Nikon D7000 DSLR is able to take on hard work. The shutter is even designed to 150.000 cycles!

Nikon D7000 features to display 3 "
The Nikon D7000 s display is a high-resolution, 3-inch format display with a 170° viewing angle and 100% frame coverage. Additionally, the screen supports Live View and the room uses contrast detection AF in this mode. The Nikon D7000 offers a standard contrast-AF, among others, and also contrast-AF with face detection. This last AF-mode has been improved and is now able to detect up to 35 faces within 0.08 seconds. That is faster than the human eye, and that is why we can call it an effective aid. The Nikon D7000 s AF has been completely renewed. The AF-system is made up of 39 focus points, including 9 cross-type sensors in the center. The result is an accurate and fast focusing, and this is combined with the possibility of shooting in High Speed Continuous mode with 6 frames per second. Such a Hi-Speed setting is exactly enough to capture fast moments in time.

Nikon D7000 supports SDXC memory
Photos and video clips are saved onto an SD format memory card. The Nikon D7000 supports SD, SDHC and also the most recent generation of SDXC cards. SDXC allows for a storage capacity of a minimum of 48 GB, but that will be doubled repeatedly in the coming years up to an impressive 2TB in storage. The presence of a double card slot in the Nikon D7000 is also very handy, I know that two memory cards can be used at the same time. It is thus possible to save photos on one card and Full HD video clips on the other card, or JPEG on one card and NEF (RAW) images on the other. You can also set up your camera so that one slot functions as a back-up.

Nikon D7000 review
The Nikon D7000 is a very interesting SLR camera for the demanding amateur photographer. It is a room that has many camera settings to offer and next to high resolution photos, it also supports Full HD video. It is a room that you would want to upgrade if you own a beginner-level DSLR camera or even if you are an enthusiastic compact camera photographer and want to follow your photographic ambition. The Nikon D7000 is placed strategically in the Nikon DSLR assortment and fulfils the expectation of what a new Nikon DSLR camera should have to offer.

Tolthough a digital camera with built-in projector is still pretty gadgety, Nikon's new projector camera, the Nikon Coolpix S1100pj, has more to offer. The Nikon Coolpix S1100pj is the successor of the Nikon's S1000pj. This model was the first compact digital camera with a built-in projector that can project photos and videos on a flat surface. By itself, this is a very intelligent, but for the wider public unknown phenomenon, or was simply too much of a gadget for the average user. Of course it also comes with a price, which undoubtedly will play a role in the acquisition of a camera with function of gadgets.

Nikon Coolpix S1100PJ review
One of the biggest differences between the Nikon Coolpix projector camera S1100pj and its predecessor is the level of the projector. With 14 Lumens, the gain of light projector Nikon Coolpix S1100pj is 40% higher than that of its predecessor, so that you can use the projector even in lighted areas. Of course the projection surface remains limited, but for small presentations or within a small group of friends it works surprisingly well. Naturally the Nikon Coolpix S1100pj also had a megapixel update. While the Nikon Coolpix S1000pj sufficed with 12 megapixel camera, the Nikon Coolpix S1100pj continues with a 14 Megapixel CCD sensor. This is a typical choice of marketing, as no extra image quality can be expected from these two extra megapixels. The optical zoom lens has remained the same and has a focal range of 28-140 mm (5 x optical zoom) and a brightness of f/3.9-5.8. To reduce motion blur due to handheld photography, Nikon Coolpix S1100pj is equipped with an optical stabilizer, and electronic.

Nikon Coolpix S1100PJ
The new design s Coolpix S1100pj room has undergone small changes. The new compact Nikon camera has enough round lines and has an internal zoom lens so that the whole is relatively flat. The front of the camera is now smoother and except for the further opening to the projector, not betraying the projector that is a camera. The design is more playful, as the finishing around the lens and projector are rounder instead of the square lines of its predecessor, elegant. The video projection is unchanged in terms of VGA resolution (640 x 480 pixels), but the greater amount of brightness in particular improves the display. The size of the display is located between 12.7 cm and 119 cm (5-47 inch), in which the distance required for a projection surface is 0.26 to 4 m. According to official numbers that Nikon has released, the battery capacity of about 1 hour were the same as its predecessor.

This is an improvement in terms of ergonomics. Camera Nikon Coolpix S1100pj projector is also easy to handle, despite the fact that there is no real handgrip.

Nikon Coolpix S1100PJ review
The extension of the type of memory card to store is new to Nikon. With the support of SDXC cards, Nikon is joining other manufacturers such as Canon and Panasonic that have already brought out the first cameras with SDXC support since the beginning of this year. Right now, SDXC hardly plays an important role, but it is expected that due to an increase in the Full HD 3D, video and file sizes growing, the demand for higher capacities will increase as well. 48 GB SDXC starts and will continue to expand in the coming years to an impressive 2 TB storage capacities.

Henwtest the digital compact camera Nikon Coolpix P5000, I took on when I visited a piece of railway history, the Dutch Railway Museum in Utrecht. The Railway Museum is located in the Maliebaan station and offers visitors a glimpse of the past. Most images were brought to trial within the Railway Museum, including a large warehouse where they are established several old trains. The light conditions were filled with contrast; darkness between trains with patches of sunlight from the roof here and there. Although the Nikon Coolpix P5000 compact camera has an optical image stabilizer, I had to use a high ISO regularly to reach the desired shutter speed or aperture.

Railway Museum Gallery
The Nikon P5000 camera is a compact digital camera for photographers who demand a lot of their camera. Cannot be a substitute for a DSLR camera, but the settings for photographers who like to determine a shot themselves, as the aperture and shutter speed priority. The image stabilizer is always in an environment like the Railway Museum. Take photographs of such large objects often requires a large depth of field and cannot be done with a low ISO and image stabilisation without long shutter speeds.

Nikon Coolpix P5000 Test Photos
Sample images were made with a production model Nikon Coolpix P5000 camera and should be judged accordingly. The thumbnail format and large format pictures have been reduced for easy viewing and compressed to ensure faster load times. Larger images are the original images, not processed.

Nikon CoolPix P5000 review
The new Nikon P5000 is one of the digital compact cameras that have been nominated for a test in the coming weeks. We are currently testing multiple cameras and will publish a full review of Nikon's Coolpix P5000 once we're done with this template.

Inspired by Nikon?s acclaimed flagship DX-format digital SLR camera, the D300, and building on the success of the wildly popular D80, the D90 delivers stunning image quality. The CMOS image sensor and 12.3 effective megapixels combined with Nikon?s exclusive EXPEED image processing system deliver outstanding images with fine details, smooth tones, brilliant colors and low noise across a broad ISO range. Photographers are able to easily compose stunning images using the Live View Mode on the large 3-inch 920,000-dot high-resolution LCD screen. The 11-point auto focus (AF) system utilizes Nikon's exclusive Scene Recognition System and Face Detection to help make the best shot in a variety of environments. Matched with the new versatile AF-S NIKKOR 18-105mm Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization lens, and a burst rate of up to 4.5 frames per second, photographers can confidently capture fast action and precise moments as they unfold. Also helping to ensure no memory is missed, the D90 offers fast handling with a power-up time of a mere 0.15ms and split-second shutter response measuring just 65ms, eliminating the frustration of pictures lost to shutter lag.

Nikon D90 Body - Legendary Image Quality
For shooting in a variety of lighting conditions, the D90 has a wide sensitivity range of ISO 200 to 3200 (expandable to Lo 1 ISO 100 and Hi 1 ISO 6400) to deliver incredible low-noise images. The camera also employs an Image Sensor Cleaning function that works to free image-degrading dust particles from the sensor?s optical low-pass filter, helping to ensure spot-free images. The new Nikon D90 companion lens, the AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR provides a versatile focal length, and the benefits of Nikon Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization technology. Nikon VR reduces the image blurring effects of camera shake allowing photographers to shoot hand-held at as many as 3 shutter speeds slower than would otherwise be possible, assuring dramatically sharper images, even in challenging lighting conditions.

D90 Nikon Digital SLR
?The Nikon D90 delivers incredible imaging performance and control, setting a new standard for its class. This marriage of outstanding still image performance and HD movie clip capacity represents the dawn of a new age for D-SLR cameras. The D90?s handling characteristics and long list of features are sure to deliver the photographic experience that Nikon photographers have come to expect from Nikon engineering,? said Edward Fasano, general manager for marketing, SLR System Products at Nikon Inc. ?Everyone at Nikon is especially eager to see the myriad of ways that imaginative D90 photographers will explore the world of cinematic 24fps HD video through the eyes of NIKKOR optics.?

Intelligent Scene Recognition System
Borrowed from Nikon's professional line of digital cameras, the Nikon D90 is the most affordable camera to include Nikon's Scene Recognition System and adds newly-developed advanced Face Detection technology. The intelligent Scene Recognition System interprets color and brightness information of each individual shot from the 420-pixel RGB sensor, and applies changes to AF, auto exposure and auto white balance. The Nikon D90 can also detect up to five faces using the new Face Detection system, producing flattering portraits with astounding definition and accuracy. While in playback mode, simply press the zoom button and portraits captured with Face Detection can be immediately magnified to ensure proper focus on the subject and faces are displayed on the LCD screen within brackets for easy reference and subject tracking.

Nikon 3D Color Matrix Metering II
The Nikon D90 benefits from Nikon?s comprehensive digital image processing engine, EXPEED, which provides smooth tones, rich colors and defined image details, as well as enhanced processing performance. Additionally, Nikon's exclusive 3D Color Matrix Metering II helps to ensure accurate exposures, even in the most challenging lighting conditions. Evaluating each scene, input data from the system's sensor is automatically referenced against an internal database of over 30,000 scenes derived from actual photographs to calculate correct exposure values. To push the creative boundaries even further, Variable Center-Weighted metering and Spot metering centered on the active focus area are also available, as are exposure compensation and auto exposure bracketing.

Nikon D-90 SLR HD movies
For the first time in digital SLR photography, Nikon introduces the addition of the D-Movie mode, allowing consumers to create their own HD movie clips (1280 x 720) with sound from their D-SLR camera. Photographers will appreciate the cinematic qualities that come from the 24fps frame rate, which matches theatrical film, whether producing vacation clips or creatively melding stills with video. Additionally, the large size of the D90?s DX-format sensor, combined with the optical superiority and broad selection of NIKKOR lenses, provides shooters with the ability to capture amazing perspectives not possible with typical camcorders. D-Movie clips also benefit from Nikon VR image stabilization, which is automatically activated during recording to aid the low-light capability that trumps many other hybrid devices. Users can record movie clips onto an inserted SD / SDHC card, created as Motion JPEG AVI files that are easily edited with widely available video editing software. The D90 also features an HDMI terminal, allowing viewing of both pictures and movies on High Definition televisions.

Nikon D90 features
The Nikon D90's unprecedented start up time and imperceptible shutter lag derives from the same standards as the professional sports photographer choice, the Nikon D3. JPEG bursts can be shot as rapidly as 4.5 frames per second, allowing photographers to capture detailed action sequences or catch fleeting expressions that might otherwise be missed. Images are also processed and previewed rapidly at 120ms, which is less time than it takes to move an eye from the viewfinder to the screen. Users are also able to creatively stop the action with a maximum shutter speed of 1/4000 second or create long-time exposures down to 30 seconds.

Auto Focus System
Nikon's 11-point AF also offers best-in-class speed and performance, helping to ensure sharp focus at any focal length. Adopting a refined version of Nikon's advanced Multi-CAM 1000 AF Module, the AF system?s center area wide-frame operation adds inherent focusing options that will instill greater confidence in getting the desired shot. Single-point AF is suggested for static subjects, dynamic-area AF for moving subjects, auto-area AF for spontaneous shooting and 3D-tracking (11 points) AF for when changing the composition after focusing on a subject.

Digital SLR photography
No matter the level of experience, the D90 makes high-quality photography fun and easier for a remarkably broad range of picture-takers. Users can enjoy complete control over all manual features or let the camera optimize settings automatically. For the camera novice and photography enthusiasts, the D90 puts all of the tools to explore new creative possibilities at their fingertips through the simple menu-driven interface. For those looking to enjoy the added performance and versatility of digital SLR photography, creative shooting is as simple as rotating the Mode dial with Advanced Scene modes on the camera. There are many options when it comes to realizing creative vision, such as Picture Control settings to provide an assorted palette of color effects that optimize color, saturation and hue through user-selected choices of Standard, Neutral, Vivid, Monochrome, Portrait, and Landscape. Popular editing tools such as Nikon?s exclusive D-Lighting and image trimming, image overlay, and a wide assortment of color filters can also be applied to images after capture.

Nikon D90 functions
The Nikon D90 has been engineered with the photographer in mind with an intuitive interface that places a variety of automatic and advanced features at the hands of the user. The camera is built to withstand the rigors of an urban excursion or backcountry safari while boasting an impressive shutter mechanism that is tested to 100,000 cycles for durability. Whether upgrading from a compact digital camera or already a seasoned hobbyist, the D90 D-SLR will help anyone take great pictures, thanks in part to the following new features:
? Battery life: New circuitry enhances power consumption, affording up to 850 shots in typical conditions on a single charge of the Lithium Ion battery (CIPA standard)
? Viewfinder: The bright viewfinder offers a luminous 0.94x magnification to more accurately compose images
? LCD screen: The high-resolution 920,000-dot, 3-inch LCD screen gives a 170-degree angle of view to make both composing and sharing easy and fun
? New playback function: Users can show their images in either four, nine or 72 thumbnail images, or use a new calendar format to easily find photos; users can also show their photos via Nikon's Pictmotion slideshow, including background music
? Built-in Flash: The built-in Speedlight offers a guide number of approximately 18/56 (ISO 200) and can wirelessly control up to two groups of Speedlights in full iTTL mode

Nikon D90 GPS system
Photographers will also enjoy advanced functionality anywhere in the world with system accessories designed for the adventurous globe trekker. When used with the Nikon GP-1 GPS unit (available separately beginning November 2008), the D90 provides geotagging to images with latitude, longitude and altitude data imprinted on the images' metadata. Users can also prolong their adventure with the MB-D80 battery pack that accepts two EN-EL3e or six widely available AA-size batteries. Additionally, photographers can share and upload their images with a wireless interface optimized for the Eye-Fi wireless enabled SD card wherever there is a wireless network.

Nikon System Legacy
The D90 also offers unprecedented compatibility with Nikon?s extensive selection of NIKKOR lenses, including DX NIKKOR lenses, which are designed for optimum performance with Nikon DX format digital SLR cameras. NIKKOR lenses offer legendary optical superiority and add to the D90?s ability to deliver outstanding images. Paired with the D90 is the new AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR lens, which provides a versatile 5.8x optical zoom and VR image stabilization, for even sharper handheld picture taking. This lens offers a 27-157.5mm focal length in 35mm equivalent, a one-lens solution that offers a broad focal range to let photographers get up close and personal to their subjects from a distance, or wide for breathtaking landscapes. The built-in Silent Wave Motor ensures quick and quiet AF operation, while an aspherical element and ED glass deliver high resolution, high contrast images with minimal chromatic aberration and distortion.

Nikon D90 Software
The Nikon D90 is also fully compatible with Capture NX2 software (available for purchase separately), Nikon?s highly versatile and elegantly simple new photo editing solution designed to help photographers tap into the full potential of NEF (RAW) images. Featuring an innovative user interface that provides easier access to powerful and visually intuitive enhancement tools, Capture NX2 affords photographers the ability to use revolutionary control points.
