What if it is priced as same price as D80?
Exactly the same as D300: 51 af pt, good high iso performance, better battery performance, live view, duster.

not if Nikon updates its primes to AFS

and heck, if they implement a modular camera (not the D90 but some higher end system) which can change between a dedicated still capture module and a dedicated motion picture capture module, they can give RED a run for its money...

That's exactly my thoughts... I don't need 6mp @60fps. 1080p@24/25/30fps would be ideal. ;p

Nikon lenses yes... ZF lenses too!! I'm not too sure about the continuous AF though.. Would the camera be able to perform AF when the signal from the sensor is being used for recording? If so, then it's quite useful because you'll probably get to choose the AF area as well. ;p
Hi..I used to think that too: is Live-view really ..important...
After my friend got a 450D, Live-view play a useful tool when metering @ taking landscape or when manual focusing...
My conclusion: it is not very Important, but it is definitely a Good Tool to have.:thumbsup:

The MAN has spoken... Brace yourself for the D90!
My eyes are more on D3x and new AFs prime.. If the rumours are to be believed.

I don't need video recording... D90 seen to be targeting families who wants a camera and a video recorder in a package.
Live view can always be useful if I am shooting above my eye level, that's about it. Some need it, some don't.
Olympus micro four-thirds honestly got my attention more even though I am a nikon user; to each own of course.
PS: the lens is interesting at least! But like some others, I would prefer AFS primes.

Hahahaha...i vaguely remember you dropped some hints on video in the D700 kopi session...looks like things are getting interesting
oh yea, if doing video can only do contrast focusing cant use the camera's AF sensors cuz mirror will be up. Lol, i'm still quite doubtful abt the video record thingy cuz errr seriously, a DSLR recording video?? lol! It would be fantastic if nikon updates all it's primes to af-s but 2 things, 1 prob wont happen, 2 d90 will still have to cater to those ppl with old primes. Actually i dont quite like the AF-S idea totally cuz with screw focusing, nikon can boast that it's lenses do not have any motors in them which can spoil after many years whereas all canons have at least 2 motors in their lenses! (1 for AF, 1 for Aperture)
