1/16 or 1/100 is too slow to capture any moments in sports, perhaps 1/250 or faster would be better

Hi poisonbox,

Have this issue been resolved ? It will be good if you could share your experience with the rest of us here as someone might just encounter the same problem as you.

Thank you.

Download Opanda IExif. Open the latest image and check the exif, there should be a Shutter Count field.

is it dark? low light?

That I never take note. Do you mean that if it's in low light situation, the sports mode will automatically adjust its shutter speed to a low (slow) one to let more light in?

I'll be mindful of that the next time I use sports mode. Thanks!

IIRC, the sports mode will try to maximise the shutter speed as its main priority to capture the fast sports action. It does so at by maximising the aperture and/or increasing the ISO.

Anyway, its pretty hard to take sports photos in low light condition with a kit lens on a D90.

the average shutter count for Nikon D90 is about 100,000 times... for Canon EOS system is about 50,000 times ... so it's doubled... if not mistaken..

to maintain the value of the camera.. you will need to send it for inspection and service once every 2 - 3 years.. if it reaches and the shutter system is dead then.. then send in for servicing and they will replace the shutter system.. if not wrong again.. pls correct if i'm wrong..

i just got my D90 yesterday too!! so excited!! just shifted from Canon.. hahaha... anyone knows the exact way to checj the shutter count? juz asking if there's any way..

Hi All,
I am looking at cable release for D90.
nikon website says D90 will need to use MC-DC2.

My question is "Can D80's MC-DC1 be use on D90?"
What is the diff between MC-DC1 & MC-DC2?

Nope. The plug is different.

For D90 u must use MC-DC2.

ya i seconded to that.. only if need be then use live view.. if not u will always find that most of the time, if not all the time.. the image produced under live view is not as sharp or focus as those taken through the viewfinder

When using live view mode, got to ensure that the shutter speed is good enough to avoid handshake blur because the support is not better than placing the camera towards your face. It is like rifle firing
I find the live view mode really useful when doing manual focus with the magnification done on the focus spot. Provided u r taking something static and can afford to take your time to focus.

Live View is :thumbsup: to have =)
