Who better to showcase Nikon's fancy new camera, the D90 D-SLR ($1,000) than their sexy spokesman Ashton Kutcher - who we've previously spotted with the Nikon Coolpix compact cam. The D90 is raising a lot of eyebrows since it's the first D-SLR in the entire world to shoot HD video in three different motion JPEG formats: 320-x-216 pixels, 640-x-424 pixels, and 1,280-x-720 pixels. And with 12.3-megapixel image quality, in-camera editing that allows you to straighten, reduce red eye, or add Fisheye effects and more, the D90 lives up to all of its expectations. Check out Kutcher with the cam below!

Geek Tip: Find Out What Camera a Flickr User Shoots With

The next time you're oohing and aahing over the photographs in someone's flickr stream, stalk their camera!

Did you know that flickr can tell you the kind of camera the user shot their posted photos with?

On anyone's flickr photo page, you'll see the Additional Information column on the right side. One of the first bullets should be, for example, "Taken with Nikon D90," or whichever camera they used. Click on the camera's highlighted name, and you'll get a ton of details about that particular camera, (check out the Nikon N90), like how many megapixels it is, what the cost is, and what its ranking on flickr is (FYI, users can opt out of this, if you don't see it on a particular user's photo).

It's like advanced geek shopping.
