The Nikon D5000 digital SLR camera is the much anticipated replacement model to the wonderful Nikon D80 that was considered to be a top-of-the-line model for quite a long time. Overall, the D5000 did live up to all the hype and expectations. For its price, this model comes with an impressive feature kit. It comes with an 18-55mm lens that is very sharp and has good focus. It uses a 12.3MP image sensor.
The Nikon D5000 digital SLR camera is also extremely fast. From a cold start, it is ready to take its first shot is just 0.2 seconds. It shot-to-shot time is at just 0.5 seconds and a typical shutter lag time of 0.3 seconds. The only other model (in its class) in the market that matches this speed is the Canon EOS Rebel T1i.

The quality of the images taken on the Nikon D5000 digital SLR camera is extremely good. The images were well saturated and bright. The colors were also very accurate (realistic). The quality of the images was also good at high ISOs. It can also record HD videos at 720p. Although acceptable, the quality of the HD videos were nothing much to shout about.
Another great feature on this model is the 2.7-inch rotating LCD display. It flips downwards and can be rotated at various angles, making it easier to take shots in odd positions. It can even be rotated inwards (facing the camera) so that you don't need to use a protective plastic cover to prevent it from scratching. The only downside to it is that it is hard to view under bright sunlight. The Nikon D5000 digital SLR camera can also be used with the optional Nikon GPS device and also a built-in wireless flash control.
