Presumably the limiting factor is the cache memory giving very limited shot duration (based on resolution)? I'd assume you'll get about 10 seconds at a decent res, completely wild guess though.

does anyone have confirmation of the release date?
OR if it will have continuous shooting of more than the measly 3fps of it's predecessors? i'm crossing my fingers for the 6fps, 8 with a battery pack?? :) ...otherwise i'd rather buy the d300! |

A.f.a.i.k there's a Nikon press conference sept. 3rd (next week); everyone is expecting the formal D90 announcement. Especially with the Canon 50D just released.
Doubt it will do 24fps though. George/ |

I see it, I see it. A taste of things to come... imagine what'll happen when they use a 25mbits/sec codec at 1080P. Oh yes, it will happen. And if it's like HDV and 4k, it'll happen sooner than I personally will expect.

Good taste of the future. Nikon, you have a chance, so implement a good codec at 30mbit/sec and 1080P.
TOTALLY feasible, and if Nikon, a DSLR manufacturer, doesn't do it first, someone else will. |

Nikon D90 Hands-on Preview: 2. Specifications: Digital Photography Review
Im holding my breath with anticipation at the potential. Aparently it has a 5 minute max shoot cut off but thats still very good. Sure there will be a million other gotcha's, especially with the motion jpeg codec they have choosen to go with (cough..stone age...cough). But definately a great sign of things to come. |

Very exciting stuff, I'm calling Nikon tomorrow to see if they'll let me put it through its paces video-wise for 16:9 Magazine.

Things are getting better all the time...
I would expect Canon to be able to make quite a "crossover" camera quite easily. Full frame with 1080p over HDMI. Would eliminate the need to 35mm adaptors. Sound sync, preview and fluid aperature would be the weak areas imho. |

HERE are the sample movies from the D90.. all I can say is WOW WOW WOW
D90 | D-MOVIE Step aside, SCarlett, step aside LETUS, BREVIS.. their offerings have just become obsolete.. digital sensor technology has finally caught up with our needs.. The D90 is probably not the most ideal form-factor or features but this sensor and sensor technology will trickle down to a camcorder body that would accept DSLR lenses and with full pro audio support. VERY EXCITING! I need to sell my Letus Mini now.. seriously.. when downsized, those D90 samples look as good as the RED ONE samples I've seen.. |
