What it is

The D90 represents a type of camera that uses a digital sensor to capture images through interchangeable lenses, a design shared with other models in the Nikon D-series, including professional, prosumer, and entry-level variants. As a DSLR, it offers the user the ability to change lenses to suit different photographic situations, from wide-angle to telephoto. The camera is one of many products manufactured by Nikon, a company whose core businesses include still cameras, SLR cameras, and DSLR cameras.[1]
