As some of you know, i have been in search of a new camera for some time.  I am currently attending NYIP, and am looking to eventually open a business.  After much debate; and lots of help from my fellow RF'ers, i finally went with the Nikon D90.  I just wanted to thank all those who helped me with the great info, that helped me make my choice.

Lol. it's only the Zoom Lense that comes with the kit. but here it is.

AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens

I plan to get into prime lenses once i get comfortable with the camera it'self.

Have you had a chance to play with the HD Video Mode on the D90 yet?  I picked up a Canon 5D Mark II a couple months ago and like to refer to HD mode as being akin to having a bipolar supermodel as a girlfriend.  Some days, she's the best thing in the world and you want to show her off to all your friends.  Other days, you just want to throw her under a bus.

Still, being able to shoot full-raster HD video to a 35mm sensor for under $3K is pretty slick.

I guess i'll have to get back with you on that.  I got it right before my move, and i just started unpacking.
