Nikon D5000 News.

With a robust feature set backed by Nikon’s superlative technology, the D5000 is the ideal choice for both entry-level digital SLR users and those looking for an upgrade to raise their level of photographic expression. The D5000 features a versatile 450° Vari-angle LCD monitor that can be viewed in normal position flush against the camera back, or swung out and rotated and/or tilted. Perfect for live view shooting, the LCD screen allows easy viewing from virtually any perspective or when not in use, the monitor can be stowed with the LCD panel facing the camera back protecting it from scratches.

Inheriting many qualities of Nikon's highly regarded digital SLR, the D90. The D5000 also features a 12.3 effective megapixel CMOS sensor, Nikon’s exclusive EXPEED image processing system, and compatibility with a comprehensive selection of NIKKOR lenses, the D5000 produces highly detailed images that exhibit smooth tonal gradation, outstanding colour reproduction, and low noise across a wide ISO sensitivity range.

Other key features include a continuous shooting rate of 4 frames per second, advanced 3D Colour Matrix Metering II for outstanding exposure accuracy, 11-point selectable autofocus, and four Live View AF modes, along with automatic exposure and white balance bracketing functions. There is also a new Quiet Shooting mode that reduces mirror cycling noise for quieter shooting in environments where minimal noise is desired.
