ok so im selling my d3000 cause i want to upgrade, and believe it or not, get a bigger camera lol, and something that shoots video along with a faster FPS, my cousin has a d90 and i kind of fell in love with it, i l know nikons after my d3000 so i kind of want to stick with them, and im keeping my 55-200 lens and didnt include it with the ebay. i have about 750 bucks to throw at a camera and i can get used D90's around that. i was thinking about a T2i but im not sure, any other nikons i could look at or just stick with t d90?

Check out the d5100 too... It's better in low light but has a half frame slower burst rate

Save an extra bit and buy a D7000.  Your gonna want a better cam if you get the D90.  It is way underrated as far as video is concerned in my opinion.

For 750 you could get a D90 and maybe a kit lens. Video on the D90 is pretty limited too. But without more money, it and the D5000/D51000/D3100 are your only Nikon options if you want video.

love my d90, it's a great camera, video is aight but that's the case with most nikons.

probs going to upgrade to the d800 when it comes out and keep my d90 as a backup, but take the ir filter off and use it to get some cool looking photos
