[QUOTE="Nikon Photographer, post: 323420, member: 9882"] I still have my D90 although I've just bought a D7000 as I got a great deal on a new body, but the D90 will not be shut away un-used, it's a cracking camera with a lot of functions, and well built, I'd prefer the D90 even though the newer D3/5000 series of camera's have more megapixels, it's not all about how many of them a camera has, the D90 will be able to use a lot more lenses than the D3000/5000 series can ever because of the built in focus drive motor, and has already been said you don't have to keep going into the menu to keep changing functions, you can do that on the fly by pressing a button an using the command dials, a lot easier when you out in the field. The 35mm lens is a DX lens, but will still give the same field of view as a 50mm on a full frame camera, the 50mm will have the same field of view as a 75mm, the 50mm will give you the same field of view as the human eye see's, for a good portrait lens I would go with the 50mm, the 50mm f1.8 is a very good lens, I've had no experiance with the 35mm, but reading a few reviews, it's not a bad lens.
