I made an exhaustive check of all my settings to be sure, and all were the same (AF Mode, AF Area, Metering area, EV, and flash settings).My question is, why the difference? The D90 has the same processor and I was using the same exact lens. (I took the kit 18-55 off the D5000 and put it on the D90). All else being identical, why would the D5000 override the settings that much? I even reset my custom settings in the menu, and it still changed it. I realize the D90 is a much better camera, but that is a ton of difference IMO, from two cameras that are supposedly processing images very similarly.Any thoughts?</blockquote>
