Stuck Between D5000 & D90.

[Nik.g]

Its been a while since Ive been active as Im back in UK for a while before i go back. I have sold my D40 and Ive been looking around for an upgrade. M really interested in the D5000 but I'm just pondering if the D90 is worth paying abit more just to have the AF-motor function. I dont see much difference other than that. What do you guys think. Some input would be majorly appreciated. Or do you recommend something else at the similar budget? Thanks guys. Budgets around £600.

Are you buying in the US? It would be cheaper over there wouldn't it?

I would go for the D90, but that is just because I have upgrade issues.

Erm Since Im very impatient I would buy it in UK if i find the right one. Well with the D90 theres only a difference in £50 i think whereas D5000 is way cheaper.
I just dont know if its worth putting in more for the D90 as its kinda similar to the D5000. Just wanted reinforcement about the D5000 cause i kinda like it.

I think the D90 would be a nice upgrade for you.

D90 for sho. Will feel much better than a D5000.

Yea thanks guys. Just wasnt sure if it was justifiable to pay more and get the D90 but yea I will search around for a second hand one then if not i will get a first hand.

D90 ftw .. and im a canon user.

D5000 has had two recalls since it's release.. can't be good!
