SD cards are smaller, more convenient, but not faster.

Yes, shooting in raw is better, if you want to get the most out of your pictures, (even assuming you did everything right in camera) only in raw can you "squeeze" every "ounce of sweetness" out of your files, as with jpeg, you are very restricted in "what's possible".

It's true, I do have a butt load of them. :-)
But there's not really any point in "defending" or denigrating them, we don't decide which card to use with a particular camera. Actually, I do get to. ;-) But to pick a camera based on just the card doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Why did the Nikon D90 stick around for such a long time? :idea:
Because it was a really excellent back-up for the D300 & 300s. Still a viable camera capable of taking as good a shot as most people could ever want. I bought one to back up my 300, then a few months later bought a 300s. The 90 has been virtually unused for the last two years. I think it may have about 2500 clicks on the shutter. A lot of people most likely bought one for a back-up and never really needed it like my situation. Thus you have a lot of lightly used 90's out there.

I think the options grow at first, and then settle in on the "winner". There is little doubt that SD is the winner, especially when combined with the micro-SD option.

The D90 was a great camera. First DSLR with HD video. Handled well and was a great camera. It has been eclipsed, but it still is a capable camera.That is why it was Nikon's most popular camera. I think that it was the best selling mid range camera of it's time.

I set (if I remember) the one button raw + jpeg setting and can use that when, and if, I want both on my 7D. I think many cameras have this feature.

I agree. I think most, if not all, interchangeable lens cameras have the raw+jpeg option.
