I’m highly impressed by Nikon’s new D90: SLR+HD Video

Nikon finally married an SLR and HD video camera. I really like where this is going. Finally a reason to upgrade (if Canon puts this into an EOS SLR). The big challenge here is the switching costs can be very high due to lens investments.

The D90 is the first S.L.R. in the world that can record video.

High-definition video, at that. Stunning, vivid, 720p, widescreen, 1024-by-720, 24-frames-per-second video, with the color and clarity that only an S.L.R. can provide.
