Just got my D90 2 weeks ago. I immediately checked this section of Philmusic to see if there's a discussion board about this model.

Wala ako nakita so here it is. Kindly share naman your experiences and sample photo using this arsenal.

Btw, I'm a newly in DSLR but I will share some photos later.

D90 user here  :wink:

i was actually thinking of getting a 550D or D90. the feel and ergonomics sold me on nikon.

my unit works really well with sigma lenses (sigma 18-50mm f2.8, and the sigma 30mm f1.4.)

unfortunately the nikkor 50mm f1.8 was too soft on my d90. hindi sila match nung body ko.
now, if only i can get a nikkor 17-55 f2.8 para ma compare ko.

YES, finally nagising na sila  :-)

Hope that this thread can act as avenue for info sharing.

First thing I did after opening the box is following the engineer's golden rule #1: RTFM (read the [strawberry] manual).

But I found D90's user's manual too unfriendly.

Then I googled and found this user's guide. I find it easier to reference to.

Displaying ISO instead of Frame Count on the Viewfinder

since sobrang laki na yung mga memory card natin... and mas prioritize(ng iba) yung ISO:

Custom Setting Menu -> Shooting/Display -> d3 -> Default is Show frame count -> Set to Show ISO sensitivity

hope this helps  :-D
