New Nikon SLR camera shoots high-def movies, too
wow - I really want this!
NEW YORK - Nikon Corp. on Wednesday launched the first digital still camera with interchangeable lenses that also shoots movies.
The D90 single-lens reflex camera, or SLR, takes 12.3 megapixel stills, but can also shoot movies in the high-definition 720p format. It will be available in September for $1,000 without a lens.
Some compact digital still cameras can shoot movies, but only with their built-in lenses. Digital movie cameras also lack interchangeable lenses, except for some high-end professional models.
Compared to a consumer digital movie camera, the D90 will provide extra versatility for a videographer, since different lenses have different looks and applications. The large light-gathering sensor of a still camera also means the camera will work better in low light. However, it captures only mono sound.

I wonder how much this release will drive down the price of the D60
