Buying a new nikon camera?
What is the differance in a nikon d90 and nikon d3000.is one just as good as the other
Whilst the D3000 is cheaper and will let me obtain another lens for just over the price of the D90 (i'm after a macro) the only problem I have with the D3000 is that it isn't the D90
Nikon d90 is about $300 more than the d3000 but it comes with a lot more.
-12.3 megapixel vs the 10.2 megapixel on the D3000.
-4.5 frames per second vs 3 frames per second.
-HD movie mode (D3000 doesn't even have that)
There are other things but overall the d90 is a much nicer camera where the d3000 is more of an entry-level camera. (just depends what you want and what you would use it for)
I had used Nikon D90 DX 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera which really good. I'm happy with it.
