I have been a professional photographer, using Nikon's (F90, FA) and a medium format (Bronica ETRSi), and have to say after looking hard at digital cameras, the D90 won me over.

Several reasons, it's price for what it offered, as now I'm no longer professionally involved, this will do more than I can ever hope, and the image quality is superb. Owing to these facts, why keep with Nikon, well, my lenses from each of my cameras will fit one another, a reason why professionals took up Nikon's decades ago as they were all compatible with one another.

Nikon have a winner here!

Review Score 4 out of 6

The Olympus PEN E-P1 may look like a throwback to retro photography, but it’s expensive and flawed. However, it's beautiful image quality renders almost impossible to dislike.

Sony's A330 DSLR is a small step backwards for the dependable Alpha range

The A330 is a competent, fully featured and easy to use DSLR, but a backward step in some respects.
