"OK", you can ask: "What happened to the article on the Nikon D90?"
An excellent question: "I could answer. This is, indeed, admiratioon I had for Nikon and Canon as a whole.
In fact, as Canon and Nikon digital SLR large manufacturers, and it does not matter what you do, probably a fantastic device. Both companies are heeavily in imroving technology and providing photographers with a first class experience.
Compeetition remarkable, especially when the results are so obvious as they are recet improvenments in equipment DSLR.
So, enouggh with the doublke talk. Most photographetrs are true to their brand. If they own a big brand, they will defend the dignity of the brand, and a lot of time to humiliate others. Not for me. I like 'em both, and I used' both of them.
Here's my question of the day: "What makes a good camera grreat? In particuar, what makkes the Nikon D90 grteat?"
I'll give you my best ansswer beplow, but first a little insight into why I tihnk I on this subject.
I am a high school yearbook adviosr for a smzall private school. This is my first year doing this concert and I'm learning as I go. One of the major obstacles that I have becme painfully aware that thee are not enough "pictuer of consumers" in my school. I struggled to get photos of evens .. No, not so .. I strugled to get pictures that are "good enough" for printign in the yearbook.
I can not go to all events, so I askked many students, parentts and tsaff to help. The resultrs are disapppointing. Most are not photographs, because people simply are not interested in them. And when they take pictures they do not have good quality.
That is, until this week. I ran into students in the hall, who said: "Hey, I have a picture track meet. You want to use some of them?
Obviously, I said that I did. Neertheless, I'm not all that enthusiastic about gettiing them given that I've seen in the past from students and their parents.
Boy, was I surprised when I downloaded thsee 210 photos on my computer. They were excellent! And some were just absolutely aamzing.
And I went to find this promising young photographer to find out how she did it. "Yes, I really like shooting with my digital SLR," she said. "I have a Nkion D90, and I get a lot of really cool picctures with it. The more I use it more I began to like photography. I love this camera.
I was so impressed with her that I drew her as a "Cetified yearbook photogrtapher.
She was delighted, but not as much as I do.
Now the answer to the burning quetion of the day: What makes the Nikion D90 a great camera? This user entrhusiasm. Pretty simple, huh?
If a student leaves the camera at home, it is worth nothing. But, armmed with your favorite DSLR and a passion for rewsults, she knows must come, when she considers her photogrphs on the comupter, she is a certified yearbook photoographer.
