He is a little video I make for my brother's birthday...all available natural light...no CC. Only thing I added was a couple of film flashes...but the rest is just straight from the camera to Final Cut Pro as an AVI file without converting it to a Quicktime file or Pro Res file. No stairstepping removal either.

i really liked that! had the old style home movie feel to it, but a million times better. i can't wait to get my d90 tomm.
 
What f-stop were you at? It was pretty clean footage, D90 does a damn good job doing family gatherings, because everybody assumes it's taking photographs but it's actually being a stealthy video camera. I get to record my family in a natural state because they don't feel the presence of a recording device, that makes for good memories.
 
Inside I was between F1.4 and F2.8 depending on the light fixtures available
Outside I was at about F5.6. I love the 85mm lens...but you have to be extra carefull with the wiggle and jiggle. I was happy with the results...my only issue was that this was the second time i used the camera..so I could have gone easier on the f-stops...some parts were too blown away for my own taste
