At long last, the update to the Nikon D80 is set to be released! Come mid-September, the world will finally get their hands on the Nikon D90, the world’s first DSLR with motion capture, ie. VIDEO!!. DSLR owners have long lamented the lack of video functionalities in their cameras and with the impending release of the D90, that void will certainly be filled.
