Nikon D90 review

Bought the d90 after having my Eos 400d stolen in Venice!!!!!!!!!.........didnt like the 450 so chose Nikon outfit........love the camera heavier then the Eos but feels great in the hands and the viewfinder is stunning,have not taken many pics yet........maybe I should try and get back to Venice!!

Bought the D90 with the 18-105 lens although I actually wanted the 18-200 offered on USA models ... as I was going to the snowy wastes of Antarctica (In summer though !). Camera perfromed magnificently. No problems with low temperatures and didn't need the two spares I tool ! Shooting Albatross (with the camera that is) was not easy and I needed to use both a high capacity 8gb card with a high speed download ExtremeIII. Shot in RAW/JEP and the camera kept up all the time. Conditions in the cold and damp had no effect on performance. The only question I wonder is whether or not I would have been better to buy a body only and the Tamron 18-270 lens to save on weight? ONly criticism ..the lens cap has no place for an attachment cord ! silly but relevant. Solved problem by always using a UV filter ...but there are times when I wouldn't wish to impare what is otherwise a fine lens with a front filter.
