Something to remember is that (IMO) given how slow the autofocus is in live view, I find the tilt screen rarely of benefit. It's a nice feature to have, but not a factor I would take into consideration. I had this dilema, but in the end bought a D90 just last week. It's fantastic. I think...

£200? I was thinking more like £20 :eek:

Can anyone recommend an interval timer remote for doing time lapses? Lots of reports of cheapo ones breaking the metal port in th GPS output.

hmm ok. I read in the manual that it does, but nobody seems to be able to confirm this.

how do they compare to the likes of the Zeikos ones which can be had for about £30? Also, dare I ask the subjective question ... does this increase FPS?

yes brand new. cracking deal, expired now though. Been waiting to snap one up for a while, so couldn't believe my luck :) See here, it got quite a bit of heat on HUKD .

Purchased one from Cameraworld at the weekend for the fab price of £449 with a free Nikon SLR shoulder bag. Bought the Nikkor 50mm F1.8 AF-D lens with it too, leaving me with ... - nifty fifty - 18-55mm - 28-80mm - 70-210 - 70-300 any general tips or information I should know about the D90...

doesn't make it a bad choice by any means. If you read several reviews, they all conclude that the only (slight) noticeable difference is that the AF-S G has slightly more rounded bokeh. Personally, as someone who doesn't have a spare £70 to just throw away, I don't think that is worth it...

So it should. It took me 2 months to think this through and decide. Not only is it an expensive decision, but i've always said that being comfortable with the feel and use of a camera is the most important thing, which will ultimately result in better pictures. :shrug: :help: There should...

I know I am bias, but personally don't find the sony range as nice. Everything from the menus, control layout and even things like the shutter release just aren't as nice to me. Shutter release I think is very significant. Tried a mates canon the other day and hated it, it was such a cheap...

Well, if you know what you are doing, which it sounds like you do, then the D90 sounds like a good buy. I wouldn't have liked this as my first SLR because when I got my D40, I really just wanted it for point and shoot stuff. Now, I'm looking to get into the nitty gritty of photography, with new...

It probably is easier than I make out. But on my D40, I found it really difficult. Perhaps because the viewfinder is smaller? I could get sharp shots, but not like I did with autofocus. Maybe I will investigate more when I get my D90. But again, im rarely unsatisfied with AF results, and if I am...

It depends on what you want and how you use a camera to be honest. There is quite a lot of difference in terms of control and such. The D90 and D7000 are prosumer cameras whereas the D5100 < are consumer. If you shoot in auto all the time, then you likely don't need the D7000. The D7000 has...

D90 bought :) £449 @ Cameraworld http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/nikon-d90-body-only-free-nikon-dslr-shoulder-bag-449-cameraworld-instore-online-1222899#post14545013

I've more or less ruled out the D5100 now. I've tried both in store, and I just get the feeling the D5100 feels more simple. It's a very serious and capable camera, but the features all seem a bit more ... gimmicky and childish for what I want. The effects mode on the dial for example, a nice...
