I reviewed the Nikon D90 some while ago, and during the time of extensive research and writing various articles about it - I just knew that one day I wanted one of these!

My concern was always going to be whether or not I felt I could justify owning a super camera like this. Well, on my recent travels from here in Ireland to North Carolina in the US I came face to face with this model. After thorough exhaustive comparisons with similar Canon and Panasonic DLSR's, the Nikon D90 kit offer was too good for me to pass over - and yay I BOUGHT IT!

So now, what I want to do is to document my experiences with this camera and show you why it really is one of the best digital SLR's on the market for the price at the moment.

Below is the very first picture I took before even reading any instructions, and worse still, using no tripod - (just balancing on a ladder and relying on autofocus to do the rest). I'm learning every day, so if you are a budding photographer and looking to further that passion, this camera will more than fulfill your dreams.

Happy shooting till my next post.
