About this deal

Announced in April 2009, it’s the successor to the popular D60 and while externally resembling its predecessor, it inherits many key aspects of the higher-end D90 including its sensor with Live View and HD movie recording. Despite this oft-criticised move, the cameras sold very well, prompting the major third-party lens makers to create versions of their popular budget lenses that would focus on these baby Nikons.

The shutter release action on the Nikon D5000 is surprisingly quiet, with an exemplarily dampened mirror slap that makes this DSLR actually quieter than some rangefinder cameras!The interval timer shooting feature is even more special, since it is something that is not offered by the D90. on thing I can't understand: why in this review camera specifications and shooting menu says two different things? The single button access to the Live View function allows you to view and compose your shot or movie on the vari-angle LCD monitor for optimal framing. You can flip it all around, and even flip it closed for protection and so you can just shoot like a film camera, without the distraction of looking at the LCD after every shot.

The D5000, like the D40, D40x and D60, lacks most of the D90's extra control buttons that make the D90 such a masterpiece. Not only is it the replacement for a cable release, it gets you Time exposures and is small enough to carry everywhere.Other Specifications and equipment are subject to change without any notice or obligation on the part of the manufacturer. In low light, the AF sensors are helped by an AF assist lamp located on the front plate of the camera. The D5000 in Quiet Mode is far quieter than any digital Nikon SLR, and far quieter than the Nikon F, Nikon F2, Nikon F3, Nikon FM, Nikon FE, Nikon FA, Nikon F4 in its own quiet advance mode, and even a little quieter than the Nikon SP and Leica M3 mechanical cloth-shuttered rangefinder cameras from the 1950s.
