Nikon's first DSLR with video recording, a landmark DX body for its era.
The Nikon D90 launched in 2008 as the world's first DSLR with video recording capability. While the 720p video was basic by today's standards, it was revolutionary at the time and helped launch the DSLR filmmaking movement alongside the Canon 5D Mark II's 1080p.
Key features include the 12.3MP DX sensor, 11-point AF, Live View, 720p 24fps video recording, built-in AF motor for legacy D-type lenses, and 4.5fps burst. The body is well-built with good ergonomics and a clear 3-inch rear screen.
The D90 was historically significant as the first video-capable DSLR. The Canon 5D Mark II's 1080p overshadowed it for filmmaking, but the D90 proved the concept. The D7000 succeeded it with superior specifications.
Cheap used and primarily of historical interest. Check shutter count, AF motor, and body condition. The 12.3MP sensor produces good images but is limiting for modern use. A piece of DSLR history.
