Nikon D5000

Judged on its own merits, the D5000 is a great digital SLR for those wanting something a bit better than the entry-level D60 model, and equals or betters a lot of the performance specifications of the D90.

Reviews

  • Nikon PC-E Nikkor 24mm f/3.5 ED

    This is a tilt-shift lens from Nikon, with fully manual controls and operation. Its maximum aperture is f/3.5 and the lens is designed for use by architectural photographers and those who want to skew perspective in their shots.

  • Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G

    The 50mm f/1.4 from Nikon is a prime lens designed for high-end Nikon dSLRs, with a wide maximum aperture of 1.4, ideal for achieving that blurred background look.

  • Nikon Coolpix L100

    The L100 is a curious contender for the superzoom crown. It only has a 15x optical zoom and is hampered by a lack of manual controls, but it is light and portable. Just don't expect stellar image quality.

  • Nikon Coolpix S220

    We never thought that we'd describe a camera as cute, but we were wrong — the S220 is quite possibly the cutest little compact you can buy, with striking good looks for a relatively low asking price. It's letdown by the lens quality though, which detracts from the overall prettiness of the package.

  • Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED

    The AF-S 10-24mm is a new wide-angle lens announced at the same time as Nikon's D5000, and retails for AU$1799.

  • Nikon D3X

    Normally we would express disappointment with a camera being overly similar to a predecessor, but not in this instance. Nikon has improved, refined and upped the megapixel count from the D3 to produce a professional-grade camera with every function you could ever wish for, apart from video recording.

  • Nikon Coolpix P90

    The P90 is a competent superzoom with an impressive burst rate, but loses out against its competitors on image quality and features.

  • Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f1.8G

    The AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f1.8G is Nikon's first prime lens designed exlusively for the DX format. With a built in Silent Wave motor, this lens is suitable for cameras such as the D40 and D60 which don't have an AF motor.

    Nikon will release a firmware update that will allow the L100 camera to use NiMH batteries, as well as unveiling special rechargeable batteries to improve the green credentials of one of its superzooms.

  • Crazy-fast camera shoots at 6.1 million fps

    Scientists at UCLA have developed a novel, continuously running camera that they claim is the fastest shooter ever: it can capture 6.1 million shots with the shutter speed measuring 440 trillionth of a second.

  • Study: Camera market slump to hit SLRs, too

    A new analysis published by IDC shows that worldwide camera shipments are expected to drop 6 per cent to 129 million units in 2009.

  • It's official: Nikon's new dSLR is the D5000
