Second Hand Classic My Section 3 of 3

Was selected to be included with another flickr member Zeroneg1 in a magazine writeup.

Called "Second Hand Classic D90" in the Sept. 2013 issue of What Digital Camera in the UK.

Mind the resolution as a magnified snapshot from pdf.

 

Sadly they changed the wording quite a bit.

And intent was changed as I never wrote equivalent to a 82-300 in 35mm terms.

Or about it's crop factor at all.

 

My original text sent them.

 

"In searching for my perfect camera found the D90 to fit all my needs back in December 2010. From the Bigger Brighter Viewfinder to more dedicated controls for making changes on the fly without my eye leaving the viewfinder. Made the D90 a delight in using on a daily basis. First time shooting handheld in underground transit at 3200 had me convinced.

Rarely a need to take it off Auto-WB and metering is spot on.

 

Shooting the 50mm f1.8D and Nikon 80-200 f2.8 AF-D was great experience with built in motor for driving older classic lenses that entry cameras cannot with their lack of built in motor to drive lenses.Even daily shooting with my preferred 55-200vr makes for a great walkabout setup shooting wide ranging subjects that I shoot for stock photography. And is a great Bang for the Buck even today and would not hesitate to recommend for budding photographer's starting out.

 

Of course there are newer more capable camera's like the D7000. But on a budget and needing additional lenses and accessories makes the D90 a great choice for those on a budget."
