Nikon D5000 Review at Photography Bay – Eric:
Overall, I highly recommend the Nikon D5000 to anyone looking for a feature-rich and very capable DSLR on an entry-level budget. There are plenty of great DSLRs on the market – some offer more features and some may be cheaper. Image quality in the D5000 rivals cameras much more expensive than it and, if you buy something cheaper, you’re going to miss out on some cutting edge stuff that only the D5000 offers.
The video function on the D5000 is the closest thing to getting right as a DSLR has done yet. The Vari-angle LCD really makes a big difference with the D5000’s video capabilities. The file format is easy to work with and the 24p video looks smooth and cool.
The review also includes sample and test photos, and video / movie clips.
