About the Nikon D5000 DSLR with 18-55mm VR Lens

The Nikon D5000 is a versatile DSLR that sits between the entry-level D3000 and the advanced D90. Its 12.3-megapixel DX-format sensor delivers clean, detailed images, while the 2.7-inch vari-angle screen lets you shoot from unusual angles – high above a crowd or down at ground level. It records 720p HD video with autofocus, and offers 11-point autofocus, Live View and a 4 frames-per-second burst. This kit includes the AF-S DX 18-55mm VR lens, a compact everyday zoom with Vibration Reduction for sharper handheld shots. Ideal for photographers stepping up from a compact or phone who want creative control and access to Nikon's extensive F-mount lens range.
