There are controls all over: front, back and top, and then there are menus, too. There are both Focus Mode Controls, and AF Mode Controls. First I'll show you the names of all the external controls, with some basics of what they do. External Controls: Front Nikon D90 front focus controls.

AF-S (AF-Single) Ken Rockwell Photo Gallery. DSLR Tips for you and your new Nikon D90. Nikon D90 Review: 1. Introduction. Review based on a production Nikon D90 with firmware V1.0 Almost exactly two years after the D80 was announced comes its replacement, the rather predictably named D90. The D80 has been one of Nikon's quiet successes, and even today, despite being positively Methuselah-like in digital camera terms it continues to sell and often makes its way into our top 10 most clicked on cameras. Because it looks so similar to the D80 the D90 appears at first glance to be one of those rather subdued incremental upgrades, but dig a little deeper and you'll find there's plenty to keep Nikon fans happy. First and foremost there's a new CMOS sensor, which Nikon claim produces D300 quality output at up to ISO 6400 and - one of several features to 'trickle down' from higher models - the same highly acclaimed 3.0-inch VGA screen as the D3/D300.

Naturally it has Live View with contrast-detect AF and it would have been surprising had it not sported some form of dust removal system. Nikon D90 Key Features. Nikon D90 User's Guide.

Introduction This will make you to an expert on using the Nikon D90, but this alone won't get great pictures. To get great photos you still need to get yourself to the right place and point the camera in the right direction at the right time, which is a lot harder than mastering the D90. Right out of the box at default settings the D90 does a great job, but you need an eye to "see" the photos before you take them.

Getting great photos out of the D90, or any other camera, really only takes these settings and a good eye: 1.) 2.) 3.) 4.) Reset 1.) 2.) 3.) My Nikon D90 workflow (Production Tips and Tricks)
