For anyone who is thinking of getting a basic slr camera, I think this night-time image of Matt the Millers in Kilkenny shows that you should give the Nikon D90 a good looking at. The D90 is one of Nikon’s longest ever running digital cameras and for good reason, for a starter or even for a Professional ( as a go anywhere, do anything, bottom of the bag camera ) its image quality is simply stunning. I have owned one since they came out and have love it from day one its not my only camera body and is down my list a little, but its one I will continue to use in its right place.
Personally, I go off results not what the Camera snobs say and this camera produces the results every time!
You can get them for around €550, or €350 body only on ebay…..

Very interested to read your thoughts about the D90. I’ve been thinking about upgrading my trusty (but somewhat craeworn) D40 for some time now, and the D90 is definitely one I’ve been thinking about.

Hi. thanks for your comment !
Yes you would love it, it would be the perfect step up from the D40, you would get a big boost in detail and print size. The D40 is the old D100/D70s sensor and with the D90 you get much lower noise at Higher iso settings.
Light enough for when your out walking and the iso would let you do much more on winter days !!

Love this shot. So crisp and clear in focus.
I should get out more at night and use my 50mm f1.4. I bought it for low light but never really use it. I think I’m addicted to a telephoto lens.
