• Awesome camera. Have been holding back for 2 years watching the Canon / Nikon camera battle in this class waiting to purchase, and am bowled over by this and today placed a pre-order on this - no reason to wait at all.
  
  Had it not had video I'd still have considered it with all the features, but with HD video on that sensor - wow. Simply brilliant ... no more having to haul a vid-cam with on trips as well. As for 5 minutes max clips ... Np : I'm sure most of my clips are under 5min as is.
  
  Am I a big time pro : no. This is not a camera for real pro's .. D3's fills that hole. This is for advanced hobbyists, like myself. For that reason the D-Movie is ideal in this package. Not to say quite a few pro's won't have this in their kit ... i expect many will have this as their backup / runabout camera.
  
  "Crappy video"?! ... Thats BS ... The cinematic D-movie is awesome! As is the ability to record that with Nikkor lenses at 720P! The quality of video you get from this is far superior to most vid-cams - it really is cinema quality.
  
  Nice review at : http://www.chasejarvisandfriends.com/
  
  Its easy to see why Canon fanboys are so jealous with their comments. This sets a new milestone in dSLR technology, like it or not, and will take a HUGE bite of the market. Canon better race to catch up, they been caught sleeping. In reply to: "Nikon D90 at long last: First dSLR to do video"
