Thing 1. Nikon has finally dropped details on the D90. Pretty ho-hum upgrade to the D80. Bigger sensor, live view, anti-dust vibration on the CCD. But the big new feature this time around is 24FPS video recording. I think this feature is great for two reasons. One is that it sets up this feature to be distributed throughout Nikon’s product range, making the transition from cheap consumer digi-cams to Dslr’s that much easier for people who’ve grown to love the convenience of taking simple movies. Second, it will allow people like me who’ve missed out on grabbing little moments here and there because all we’ve had is our Dslr. Plus taking movies with sweet lenses will be…sweet. ‘N stuff.
The downside will be whatever format they choose to compress it with will probably blow. Though being able to shoot 720p is nice. Also, audio. How are they gonna handle that?
Anyways since I can’t embed any of their demo videos, here’s a link to their page.
Things 2. This may be the first non crazy cat-lady cat-lady in existence.
Well maybe a little crazy.
