As everyone knows, parents love taking video of their kids. And we'll have to send video back to the grandparents in China. I could swing a good video camera or the D90, but probably not both.
I really want my own DSLR after borrowing Dad's so often to take pictures for my friend's Shakespeare theatre company. If I buy a D90, I could use his lenses which are the 50mm 1.8, 80-300mm, 12-24mm, and whatever the kit lens is. Then maybe spring for another lens too.
I know the D90 takes only 5 minute videos. That's probably fine for now, at least until the baby is older and I need to take a video of the WHOLE game or WHOLE school play.
