I've been thinking about this all night.  It's turned out to be a good thing I don't have the $$ this month, it's making me think more about what I really want in a camera.
I just have one more question (at least until it's closer to time for me to buy  ). With the D90, I can use all the same lenses as I could on the D5000, plus others?
Ann, you've been so much help. Thank you!!  |
I think it's good too...so you don't regret the decision, whichever way you go.
With the D90, you have virtually *no* lens limitations...so yep, you can use all the lenses you'd use on the D5000, plus all the others.
Put it this way, the *only* real thing I didn't like about the D40 was the lens issue - it bugged the crap outa me - it was *the* only reason I was still looking at upgrading. So, I bought the D40, then ended up selling it for less than I bought it for bc the lens issue did bug me...and my hubby bought me the D90 so I sold the 40. If I had it to do over again, I would've bought a camera w/out the lens issue from the get-go.
Put another way, let's say you get camera that forces the lens issue....let's say you then reallllly want a 50mm 1.8 lens. Well, you can't use the Nikon 1.8 at $100. You must spend about $400+ for lens w/ a focus motor. With *just* that one lens...you've now spent enough to have bought an upgraded camera in first place (a camera w/out the lens limitation).
I'm happy to help you!!
