Nikon D90 Body Only

$599.00 to $1,350.00



The D90 provides remarkable performance and operability, featuring Nikon’s exclusive Scene Recognition System that optimizes auto focus, auto exposure, i-TTL control and auto white balance milliseconds before the shutter is released. Live View mode allows shooting while confirming the subject on the large 3-in., approx. 920k-dot, high-density colour LCD. It offers three contrast-detect AF modes to allow photographers to focus on any point in the frame, enabling a greater variety of composition. In addition to wide and normal area AF, the D90 offers Face-priority AF in Live View mode for even sharper portraits. These are just some of the powerful features housed in a compact, comfortable-to-hold body, with intuitive controls. The D90 will satisfy the requirements of passionate photographers who demand superior image quality and want exciting photographic possibilities.Minimize

Le DSLR-A330Y offre la technologie Quick Autofocus (AF)Live View de Sony afin de cadrer les photos à l'écran ACL de l'appareil, ainsi que par l'entremise du viseur optique.
