For Nikonians who want a hinged and tilting LCD, the D5000 is the only option. Plus you get video, 4-fps burst shooting, speedy AF, and sensitivity out to ISO 6400.
If the first number you look at when DSLR-shopping is the price, we understand. Blame it on the times.
So there's no question that the new Nikon D5000 will stop you cold in your number-crunching tracks. The price is low-$730, street, body only; $850 with the AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5- 5.6G VR lens. And, as our tests in the Pop Photo Lab confirm, there's more to this mini Nikon DSLR than meets the invoice.
