First Nikon D90 DSLR Videos Show Off Stunning Effects, Low-Light Powers

While some have been sceptical of the D90′s video recording as a useless gimmick, Nikon has posted a bunch of videos showing off some of the amazing things you can do with the camera. The above clip ticks off some of what you can do with a variety of lenses, toying with fisheyes or super-zooms, but the two below really show what the camera can do, like create stunning effects with a shallow depth-of-the-field, and the detail it captures in low light using a pumped ISO.


Yeah, the sound sucks, but we’re still sorta kinda sold on this as a solid bonus feature that has a lot of play in it—we can’t wait to check it ourselves to see if it’s as good as Nikon’s making it look. [Nikon]

    Why do we get high levels of noise when shooting in live view? due to the sensor heating up.. this could be why they limit recording times.

    video and still sensors are designed for differing scenarios.

    still would be a great add on – even for short recordings, especially making vr panoramas.

    come on canon get on the bandwagon! i wanna keep my glass – not that i would change just for video fx when i can buy a dedicated cam so cheap these days.. but it would be nice to have awesome lowlight video capabilities, not sure if the girlfriend would appreciate it tho..
