Out With The Old

Where: Hudson River Park, NYC
When: October 31, 2009

Taken with a Nikon D90, biatches! Woot! I did literally nothing to this, I didn't even crop it. So far, I'm loving the enhanced speed, the improvement on the noise front is blowing me away, and I feel like the colors, sharpness, and IQ are tremendously improved. Another big deal is that I almost always disagreed with the D80's meter about what the "correct" exposure should be, and pretty much had settings in my head and ignored the meter - I had learned about what the settings SHOULD be for the light and what the meter was telling me was a little tangential. The D90 and I are so far very much in accord, however, and I'm very excited about the prospect of being able to rely a bit more heavily on my camera's abilities.

This is not to say that the D80 is a bad camera, I learned SO much from it, and got some great shots. I'm certainly not throwing it out. ;) But three years is a lot in camera land, and holy crap is the D90 a whole different deal.
