Nikon Digital SLR Image Quality
Exceptional image quality is a prerequisite for all Nikon D-SLRs, and the D90, featuring a new
12.3-megapixel DX-format CMOS sensor, fulfills that essential performance requirement with ease.
Borrowing a host of technologies, including low-noise, high ISO performance, from the award-
winning D300, the D90 will change the notion of what‘s expected from an enthusiast D-SLR.

New D-Movie Mode Features 720p HD Cinematic Quality
The D90’s creative potential explodes with the capability to record smooth 24fps, motion JPEG
sound movie clips. Leveraging the D90’s 12.3-megapixel DX-format CMOS sensor, legendary
NIKKOR optical quality and the one-button Live View function, the D-Movie Mode gives still
photographers a new and exciting way to express themselves in 720p HD.

Comprehensive Feature Set
Compact, yet powerful, the D90 captures up to 4.5 images per second. Accurate 11-point autofocus
is now even faster and more intelligent, aided by Nikon’s exclusive Scene Recognition System. The
unique Nikon 420-pixel 3D Color Matrix II Metering system, now enhanced by EXPEED image
processing technologies, delivers extraordinary exposure accuracy—immediately evident when
reviewing images on the D90’s super-density 3-inch 920,000-dot color LCD monitor.
