If you are looking for a new DSLR with video, and you cannot decide between the Canon T1i (500D) and Nikon D90, then you may find this spec-comparison article helpful. Here are some of the main differences between the Nikon D90 and the Canon T1i:
ISO boost capability
The Nikon D90 has lesser ISO boost capability than the Canon T1i, so it looks like that the latter is the clear winner in this aspect. However, although the Canon T1i’s 12,800 ISO looks good from a marketing perspective, the reality is that it makes poor results.
The Canon T1i has higher resolution sensor
The Canon T1i features a 15.1MP sensor, while the Nikon D90 sports a 12.3MP sensor. However, there are many disadvantages associated with higher resolution sensors. For one, you will want to invest in a high-end quality lens to back the sensor’s increased resolution capability.
The Canon T1i is better in recording HD videos
The Canon T1i has better HD video recording capabilities than the Nikon D90’s D-Movie mode. The Canon T1i design is appropriate for recording HD movies. The camera offers the option of 720p HD video shooting at 30 frames per second, with up to 18 minutes of recording time.
The Nikon D90 is much faster and quieter

The D90 kit lens is superior to the T1i kit lens
The Nikon D90’s Nikkor AF-S DX 18-55mm VR zoom provides great performance and excellent photo quality. The Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS zoom, on the other hand, appears to be more subject to lens flare. Moreover, it looks like that the Canon kit lens does not look sharp.

Tbone, Ohio
I am very happy with the D90. It captures excellent images in automatic setting; you will be very happy if you need to be imaginative with the manual settings. The video mode is a nice feature as well. While the camera does not feature an auto focus for the video mode, it comes out still nice.
Frantisek Dano from Naples, FL
The Nikon D90 is one great piece of technology; the 18-105mm lens is a great start. I am utilizing the factory settings for around 95% of capturing. When you put your photos on the Internet, you will not notice the differences between the D90 and pro cameras.
The camera’s controls are very easy to learn. Even an amateur can capture great photos from the very beginning. It is my new hobby and pet.
Isaac Ramirez (Costa Rica)
The DSLR really went beyond all my expectations about a digital SLR. The D90 offers a lot of controls, many customizations, ease of use, real freedom for imagination on non-auto modes, and smart focusing mechanism; they are designed to help you compose, focus, and frame the shot in the best way. My best buy ever!
A. Elshamaa, Los Angeles
I have done extensive research before getting myself the latest Nikon D90 and I am happy to say that it does not disappoint. I bought this camera more than 6 months ago and the image output is just superb. I am an amateur photographer, but you do not have to be a pro to use it.
