nikon d90
Good ol' Circuit City has jumped the gun on the official D90 announcement and has
put it up for pre-order. Release date is listed as September 5, and the price and most of the specs listed on the product page
we already knew, but CC's page confirms that the movie mode will in fact record in HD (aspect ratio and actual resolution we still don't know), as was rumored. Also we learn that the sensor is a 12.3 MP CMOS, not a CCD as was used in the D80, D60 and down the lineāso that looks like a good sign in the noise-reduction department, if the
amazing D700's larger CMOS is any indication. Bounce all of that on top of the great specs we saw before, and it's a pretty solid D80 upgrade at $1299. This thing is bound to go official before the week is up, possibly as soon as tomorrow. See the full product description below.
UPDATE: It's been pulled. [
Thanks, Dan!]
