Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
I'm debating between the Nikon D3000 and D5000. I will be taking picture of cars the most so I want the best I can so I can make my pictures, picture perfect. Thanks ahead!
 
D90 > D5000 > D3000

Of the two, I'd suggest D5000, but if you can, spring for the D90, it's a great body.
 
Perfect pictures depend less on what camera body you use, and relies rather heavily on everything else.
 
I really don't want to spend to much on the body, D90 is out of my price range.

That's cool, I can understand that. Go with the D5000 then. A guy in my car club just got one, he and I are always shooting together and it makes some impressive photos.

Bitter is right though, it's more about YOU than the camera, keep that in mind. :thumbup:
 
The D5000 has the same sensor as the D90 and D300s which is a very good thing. I like to think of the 5000 as a D90 with different skin and minus a couple of features.

Auto photography depends largely on the framing and lighting.

Lenses, time of day, lighting, and surroundings matter more than your camera.

I have read that, Well I just want an opinion on which body will be better.

The cheapest. That gives you money to spend elsewhere. Also, look at used cameras.
