OK............ I'm buying a D90

[artforme]

Congrats, I love mine as a still camera. And you'll be surprised how much you might enjoy it's movie mode. (Although manual controls would be a nice addition)

I recommend checking out www.dpreview.com for some general knowledge, and searching those forums for any specific questions you might have.

There are many good books on general DSLR photography, and I think alot of them pretty much say the same thing. www.strobist.com has some good general information about using strobes with your photography.

I enjoy using Adobe Lightroom for my workflow for stills.

Ok I west to BestBuy today and purchased the D90 which I got priced matched for $1150 and on top of that my brothers bestfriends father is a Department Manager and after he did his magic I paid less than $900 with a 4yr warranty. let me first say that I really wanted a great still camera which the D90 is, the fact that it does video was a bonus for me I'm sure I will use it in movie mode alot just because but I already have a Dvx100b which I am thinking about upgrading to the HVX200. My purpose for this post was to find any great tutorials or books for the D90.......:dankk2:

shoot a clip with it.....it's like a visual SP-1200

I can't recommend the DPReview forums. I go there normally to get a chuckle.

Like most Nikon camera's you will get great pictures. I've seen some really good video too. You should enjoy it.
