I then set the focusing area to spot, and bang. A pretty tricky autofocus test, and not surprisingly, the F90x focusing system struggled. Set on wide, I tried to focus on a white tissue extending from a tissue box on a window ledge in my kitchen. The F90x only has one focus point, but it's a good one that can handle both vertical and diagonal lines, and which can be set to either centre spot or wide. Setting up the camera for my shooting style was quick and easy. All the buttons are very clearly labelled, most fall to hand (although will require a two-handed operation) and it's a solid piece of kit.Īfter a very quick clean with a soft cotton cloth, I popped four AA batteries into the chamber and the F90x sprang to life.

The camera manual came with it - but I didn't need to use it (although maybe a quick glance would have been good - more on that later).

That's a pretty minor gripe though really, with what is otherwise a beautifully laid out, well thought out, and nicely put together camera on Nikon's part. Maybe the quicker it rubs off the better. My Nikon F90x arrived before the weekend and I was able to take it with me to Westport on a family trip to see the grandparents.įirst things first - it is in very good condition, and the back rubber is largely in tact - but boy is it grubby! Why-oh-why did Nikon choose to coat the whole back with the stuff?! Dirt and fluff just sticks to it like glue.
