Comments about Nikon Nikon D90 Digital SLR Two-Lens Outfit (AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR & AF-S DX 55-200mm F/4-5.6G ED):
My wife bought this for me as a gift knowing how I like to use a camera and as a former Nikon family user knows I love Nikon cameras. She was guided to purchase this package by a salesman. The 55-200 without vr is not really an improvement to the basic lens in this package. Would have been better to get 70-300mm with vr.
Overall this camera reminds me of the good old days of film cameras. Not to heavy, very responsive and the best part is I can have everything fully auto and still get great pictures.
So far I only am having issues with live view. Trying to get used to the view/timing/shutter.

Nice Auto focus, good shutter speeds, robust body and lens, quality images, better views and dual view (lens view and live view), separate LCD for image data. low light video is not extraordinary but then again this is meant to be a still camera so no complaints there. Overall good Prosumer camera for intermediate and serious hobbyist and small professional photographers.
