Digital camera reviews of Nikon D90 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)

Digital camera Review: "F- -" and "ERR" error messages
Summary: 4 Stars

My camera started showing the dreaded "F- -" and "ERR" error messages 2 days after I received it. The only way to remove the error sign is to remove the battery. A quick internet search revealed that these errors are not rare. From what I gathered, apparently there is a problem at the camera/lens interface. The problem occurs at least once a day and it occurs with the 18-105 mm kit lens (haven't tried any other lenses). I am returning the camera for an exchange. Hopefully the new one will not have the same problem. Otherwise the camera IQ and user interface are great, though noise reduction is a tad bit overwrought.

12/7/10 Long overdue update. My initial review was posted under the D90 Nikon kit (18-105 mm lens) review site, but now it is appearing under the D90 body only review site. I exchanged the 18-105 mm lens and the "F - -" and "ERR" messages have almost dissapeared. They have occured only twice in almost a year. The camera is great and the price has gone down over time. My new rating is 4 stars. I still think that noise reduction is overplayed a bit. There are newer cameras out there that give it a run for its money, including some tantalizing ones from Pentax and some new updated models from Nikon itself.

Summary of Nikon D90 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)

Fusing 12.3-megapixel image quality inherited from the award-winning D300 with groundbreaking features, the D90's breathtaking, low-noise image quality is further advanced with EXPEED image processing. Split-second shutter response and continuous shooting at up to 4.5 frames-per-second provide the power to capture fast action and precise moments perfectly, while Nikon's exclusive Scene Recognition System contributes to faster 11-area autofocus performance, finer white balance detection and more. The D90 delivers the control passionate photographers demand, utilizing comprehensive exposure functions and the intelligence of 3D Color Matrix Metering II. Stunning results come to life on a 3-inch 920,000-dot color LCD monitor, providing accurate image review, Live View composition and brilliant playback of the D90's cinematic-quality 24-fps HD D-Movie mode.
