Middle class, a review of the Nikon D5000
Friday, December 18, 2009 at 7:35PM Having nothing new to say about the D5000 is really a luxury problem. After having previously reviewed the Nikon D300s and D3000, two cameras on opposing ends of a feature (and price) scale, half way through shooting with the D5000 it dawned on me that the camera really lands in between the two end points of the D300s/D90 and D3000 scale. Middle class, if you will.

↓ Walkthrough of some of the camera's main points
All in all, the Nikon D5000 comes highly recommended as a very capable DSLR with great features and (importantly) a very, very good sensor.
