Merry Christmas to Me!!
Sunday, December 26, 2010
I'm so excited! For Christmas I splurged on a brand new Nikon D90 for myself! This is a huge upgrade to the Nikon D70s that I've been shooting with for years! Then my parents bought me an awesome speedlight for my camera which I am really excited about.
Sorry about the poor quality, I took these on my iPhone!
When I got the new camera my mom suggested I take a picture with my old camera and my new camera to compare the difference. Challenge accepted!! I knew the Nikon D90 was capable of much higher ISO's with less noise, so I went into a room in my house where there wasn't a lot of natural light coming in and took a picture of the little white plastic Christmas tree I had on my dresser.
Both of these pictures were taken with the same lens, and all the same settings. 50mm lens, ISO 1000, f/1.8, 1/60 second.
Old Camera
New Camera!
I couldn't believe the difference. Both were taken with automatic white balance settings but the new camera actually got clear whites and very natural colors! Also there was a lot of noise and distortion on my old camera with the high ISO and hardly any noise on my new camera!! I can't wait to see what else it can do!!

How exciting! I can't wait to see some more awesome pictures with you new camera. Your going to love your speedlight, especially when you can bounce the light of the ceiling in low light situation. It's fantastic. :D
oh my gosh, what a difference!!! I am jealous :) That is a great present!! Enjoy! :)
Wow! That's a huge difference! I'm happy for you!
Also, I am extremely jealous of the speedlite! I've been dying for one!
This is my camera! How fun! I've had a blast with it, and I hope you do, too. There's so much you can do with it, and I'm sure so much more I need to know.
I can't wait to see pictures taken with your new camera! I can't believe the two side by side shots. Amazing!
Woo hoo! That is an amazing difference! I'm so happy for you!
Merry Christmas! I can't believe there is that much of a difference! I use a D90 and get frustrated with the White Balance on it, but I guess I shouldn't be - HA!!!
WOW!! That is so cool! Have fun with your new camara!!
Those look amazing!! I had heard that the new nikons were better with noise reduction and now I'm a believer:)
Congratulations on your new camera. I have been meaning to do that with my two cameras. Now I really want to do it. Thanks for the motivation!
Wow! That's amazing! I can't believe the difference! I've been wanting to upgrade my Nikon too but... I can't decide which "new" Nikon to get? I've looked at the D90 and the D7000! Ugh... This post really makes me want to upgrade even more now! :) I'm jealous! Have FUN with it!
