[QUOTE="goz63, post: 3515, member: 1557"] The two major advantages the D90 has over the D5000 is the built in focus motor on the D90 (greater field of lenses available that will autofocus) and the D90 will produce better images at higher ISO's with less noise. In fact the stats show the only camera in the Nikon line that is better at higher ISO's is the D3 at 4-5 times the price. Big influences for me. As for what lenses will work, all current Nikon lenses will work on both, the only difference is whether the lens has a focus motor or not. If it does not, only the D90 will auto focus but the lens will still "work" on the D5000, just not auto focus. (the 70-300 does not have a focus motor but the 70-300VR does have a focus motor built in) [/QUOTE]
