The Nikon D5000 digital SLR camera features an innovative Vari-angle monitor with line view shooting that allows versatility in shooting from almost any angle and vividly shows the subject in real time. This includes high angle shooting which is ideal for shooting over obstacles such as a crowd or fence. The D5000 offers the choice of different display views, and the ability to minimize displayed camera settings for an uncluttered view of the scene.
Record HD movie clips with the D-movie function and take advantage of the NIKKOR lens to obtain a variety of dramatics perspectives unavailable with typical camcorders. The D5000’s 11- point autofocus system is strategically arranged for superb coverage of both vertical and horizontal compositions giving excellent sharpness to photos even for subjects that may be completely unpredictable in movement. It is equipped with Nikon’s exclusive Scene Recognition System using a 420-pixel color sensor and optimizes exposure, auto focus and white balance over the entire scene before the shutter is released. The D5000’s normal ISO range of 200-3200 can be expanded to cover ISO 100-6400 ideal for shooting in lit environments or sporting activities.
The D5000 offers the technical image quality of Nikon’s best DX cameras like the D300 and D90. In comparison the D5000 has the D90′s sensor, AF sensors, Gen 2 image processing smarts and 720p HD movie mode. The Nikon D5000 deviates from the D90 with its design to appeal to users that desire a camera which centers on automatic user friendly operation, while featuring similar technologies and delivering the same level of image quality. The D90 remains aimed at enthusiast level photographers that prefer more manual control options and an extended feature set.
