As good as advertised.......2007-09-19
Used this along side D2X and D2Hs. It performed exactly as Nikon describes it in the advetising. Focus is not as fast as D2X or D2Hs but much faster than D70. Color is accurate with excellent auto white balance. LCD is bright and gives a wonderful preview. Highly recommended unless you need the focus speed of a D2X or D2Hs. Battery live is less than D2X or D2Hs but can be expanded with the optional grip that holds two batteries. Saves files much faster than the Fujifilm S5 pro.
Good product and fast shipping.......2007-09-12
This was a seamless transaction. It was delivered as expected and works well. I have not complaints.
4000 D200 Photos, I AM COMPLETELY THRILLED!.......2007-09-07
There's only 5 stars I can give this camera, but I would give it a 10!
This camera is my 3rd digital camera, my second DSLR, I also have a D-70. I recently went to Europe and decided to upgrade cameras for the trip. My decision was really a no-brainer, once I held this beauty in the Camera store. It just is the best piece of craftsmanship I have ever owned. Nikon truly rocks! I have shot ~4000 photos on my D200!
That said, what are the biggest reasons to spend ~$2000 for a camera?
1) Quality of pictures - bar none, you will be elated at your results. This camera will take the absolute best pictures you have ever taken in your life! That's the reason for buying any camera, and I'm telling you, you will not be disappointed!
2) Control. You own your images with this camera. Whatever you ask of it, it will deliver. Tough lighting, fast moving subjects, difficult conditions - it will not matter, you shots will consistantly of excellent quality.
3) Ease of use. Make no mistake, this camera is a wonder to use, but controls, settings and flexibility are still within your reach. It is too easy to take great shots with this camera. Way too easy. You will be completely surprised at the ease with which you fill up your CF card with hundreds of great images.
What more can I say? Oh, yeah... the negatives. OK, so here's what I can share:
1). If you are a novice digital photographer - this camera will work for you, but learn your tool. The book it comes with is 1/2 inch thick. There is a reason for it, so read it. If you don't/can't read manuals, buy a CoolPix and just be happy. This camera will work out of the box, but without knowing how things work, you'll still get great pictures, but you should take get great pictures on purpose, not by accident. I read my manual every few weeks.
2) It weighs 12-14 ounces. Join a gym, workout and buy a good camera bag. After a 10 hour day of sightseeing, you be glad you did. Accept the fact that this is a great piece of equipment, and don't worry about dragging it around with you. I have never regretting bringing my D200 with me, ever.
3) Do not, repeat, do not drop your D200 - ever. If your are inherently clumsy by a CoolPix and be happy. This camera is built out of magnesium and very durable, don't get me wrong - it can take some abuse. But the lens will inevitable hit the concrete first, and if it does, it will be toast. This is pretty much true of any camera.
That's it, no more negs on this camera, but I do have one suggestion. If you are an intermediate to advanced photographer and want to really learn to use the D200, the intricacies of it, the art of it and nearly instantly become a much, much better photographer, here is what I did:
On the net, there is a fabulous site that Ken Rockwell put up on photography, cameras, technical reference and comparisons; www.kenrockwell.com. Check out his site and I'm sure you'll agree. I have read all his content on the D200 and am much more "fluent" with my camera for it. He writes so you understand and enjoy reading it. He isn't selling anything and there's no product ads, so his site is truly a joy. Not to mention, he absolutely knows his stuff.
No kidding, it really is awesome.
So beg or borrow if you have to, but go to your favorite site or store and buy this camera! Honestly, you will be thrilled with your new Nikon and the unbelievable results you will get, over and over.
Remember when everyone wanted a Nikon? Well, Nikon is back!.......2007-08-31
I know. The D300 and D3 have been announced and I am just now writing my review of the D200, even though I have used it for more than a year. What can I say? I've been too busy taking pictures with the thing to spend time writing reviews.
This thing is tough. I have taken pictures in tropical typhoons, in rain forest, on beaches with blowing sand, on snow covered mountain tops, hanging out of an airplane window. It goes with me everywhere. Never a lost picture or hiccup. No blinking green light of death like the D70. This camera represents how Nikon made its name. A camera tough enough to go anywhere from black tie to jungle, and keep on performing.
Controls are laid out nicely. Yeah, there is an LCD on top and you have to take your eye away from the camera to see it, but it is repeated in the viewfinder. The viewfinder is bright and clear. The camera feels like an extension of your arm.
On the front of the camera you find the lens mount, preview buttons, a switch for focusing modes, and a port for a shutter release. Now, this camera does not use the handy little remote that is available for the smaller Nikon DSLRs. Instead, you have to hook up a remote to the shutter release port. Although it is more klunky, you do have more options.
The side has ports for USB 2.0. If you are smart, you will never use these and use memory card readers instead. Their real purpose is capture of images in real time onto a laptop if you are doing studio work.
The back has the LCD, of course. There is no image preview. You have to compose and focus using the optical viewfinder. This is true of all DSLRs of the D200's generation and it is still the best way to compose and focus even on cameras that do have Live View or Image Preview or whatever you want to call it. The reason is that holding the camera out at arm's length to view the LCD is not a very good way to hold the camera steady.
There are the typical playback and menu buttons, as well as a switch for choosing focusing mode and one for focus/exposure lock which also allows you to choose between spot, average, or 3D metering. On top you set multiple exposure modes (or timer), mirror lock-up to reduce vibration (as opposed to mirror lock-up for sensor cleaning), white balance, ISO, picture quality, mode, exposure bracketing, and on/off/LCD light. You typically adjust these by pressing the button and turning one of two wheels mounted on the back or the front of the camera at the top of the grip. It is slick and you can tell how much you are adjusting things simply by counting clicks. You never have to look at the settings if you don't want to.
The sensor is not self-cleaning. No camera of the D200's age has a self-cleaning sensor; however, it is hardly a necessity. There is a flash on top that can be used in commander mode to control off-camera strobes using the Creative Lighting System -- a fantastically flexible lighting system that rivals the best third party pro setups.
Nikon cameras are infamous for producing 'noise' in their pictures, but you have to wonder about people who seem to only shoot at ISO 2500 or above. You never did that with film and I suspect that a lot of people are using noise reducing algorithms to cover for their bad photography. The Nikon tells it like it is. It does not cover your tracks if you misuse it.
A lot has been said about battery life. Well, I have never been able to run down two batteries in a single day. The fact is, a set of batteries in an SB-800 flash will not last even a third as long as the battery in the camera. Batteries recharge quickly, so if you had three batteries and kept one on a charger all the time, you would be extremely unlikely to shoot fast enough to run out of batteries. The batteries should be recharged frequently and should not be allowed to be drained completely.
I find Nikon's color rendering to be the most pleasing and natural of any digital SLR. It is far more accurate than film.
Nice step up from entry level DSLR.......2007-08-28
Was currently using a Nikon D70 and I wanted to pick up a second body to prevent having to switch back and forth between telephoto lenses and the standard lens.
This camera has all the bells and whistles on the camera controls for easy and quick changes instead of jumping into the menu. One feature that helped with the purchase is the extra FPS, works great for sports or aviation photography which is what I purchased it for.
Had a learning curve on some of the settings which seemed different from my D70. Files are much larger in RAW+jpg fine so I had to purchase a new 4GB card and the batteries seem to be used up quicker than on my D70 so a second battery is a must if you will be shooting all day.
Highly recommend this body if you want a step up from the entry level DSLR camera and want a little more control.

Does what it should, ignore the low star reviews!.......2007-09-24
This strobe is marketed and intended as a small, portable, light, unobtrusive alternative to the larger SB-600/800 strobes. It does NOT fill the bill as a full time powerful strobe. It DOES however do what it should; provide much nicer light (when bounced) than built in strobes, MUCH nicer. Absolutely a must for candid snapshot photography. Highly recommended!
Rockwell was right!.......2007-09-19
I learned of the existence of this tiny Speedlight via Ken Rockwell's outstanding website; he gave it a glowing review, so I decided to get one for my outfit.
Rockwell scores yet again!
This little flash unit is a perfect match for the Nikon D40; it's efficient, light, compact, powerful, and digests AA batteries in a very miserly fashion (and also saves your camera's onboard battery while doing so).
It's utility as a bounce flash is wonderful to behold; matched with the wondrous Nikon flash technology, it is capable of producing extremely pleasant, lifelike images devoid of that "death beam glare" of direct flash.
Plus it easily triggers my slaved Vivitar 285s to produce truly professional results.
If you have a D40 or similar digital Nikon SLR, I urge you to get one of these little cuties which slips easily into a corner of your gadget bag (and yes, it comes with a high-quality padded zip case to keep it looking brand new)...
Highly and heartily recommended to one and all!
Great!!.......2007-09-13
I bought this to be a travel flash. Its small and works well for most things! it fits nicely into my bag and I love it. One thing to be aware of it goes through batteries pretty fast so make sure to pack lots of extra if your going to be using it alot!
Love this little speedlight.......2007-09-09
I had the SB-800 for over a year and did not get to use it much at all due to the size. It is just too much for me to carry it around. I love this little speedlight, and I already used it quite a few times. I have it with me all the time.
Just what it looks like. .......2007-09-06
This is Nikon's baby flash. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the larger, heavier, more sophisticated (and much more expensive) SB-600 or SB-800 flashes.
What it does have is:
It's small and light and low profile (you won't be as paranoid about busting it off like the big ones that stick way up in the air) so you'll be more likely to just leave it on the camera all the time instead of having to dig it out of the bag whenever you want to use it. It only takes 2 AA batteries so it's a lot lighter than the bigger units which take 4. It's very easy to install and use.
I originally bought it for my D-50 and it worked fine on that and now on the new D-80 that I upgraded to. It also works on my little Nikon Coolpix P5000 which is really handy when I don't want to lug all the heavy iron.
Oh yeah...the pics are a lot better than when using the built-in flash too. And you are less likely to get shadows when using a big lens hood.

Nice bag for the price.......2007-09-20
I got this bag as part of the package when I bought a 10 year old Nikon film camera on craigslist. I was buying the camera to get the lenses, and didn't expect to keep the bag, because I already have a nice backpack style bag. But I ended up keeping the bag, because it's sturdy, roomy enough to hold my extra gear, and a nice size and shape for storing things around the house.
This is an older design; square, boxy, with four (count 'em, *four*) quick release buckles that secure the thing. Buckling only one or two buckles doesn't really secure the bag, you need to have all four buckled to carry it around securely. It's also pretty squat and bulky for the amount of gear it carries. It would work well in a car trunk, and is great for storing gear in my house, but is bulkier than modern designs for carrying around.
All in all, it's still a nice bag, if a bit dated in design. If you're looking for a solidly made, inexpensive bag for carrying stuff in the car or storing things around the house, this may be it. It will hold a camera body and three lenses comfortably, along with a pile of accesories. My 80-200 f/2.8 fits in just fine.
doesn't last.......2007-09-08
Two people in my office bought this bag. After only a few months one has a handle that is wearing out the other has the lining coming loose.
Awesome bag.......2007-08-31
Quality. That sums up this wonderful little gizmo of a bag. Plenty of pockets and spots for speedlights, camera bodies, lenses, pens, discs, cables, cords and more. I bought this for my D80. I have my camera with lens attached, SB600 speedlight, extra lens, cloths, discs, pens, cables, batteries, camera batteries, and more and still have room in it.
You get what you pay for.......2007-07-28
Okay, first off, the bag is less than thirty bucks so you can't expect much. It was included in an online purchase that I made. (I wouldn't buy it as a stand-alone product.) Don't even think about flying with this bag, especially if your hardware is on the heavy side. And walking around for any length of time exceeding ten minutes, or any distance exceeding that between your car and your home or office, is asking for trouble. I usually carry a D200 with two nikkor VR lenses and two Nikkor prime lenses. This is a pretty heavy load, and the bag shows it. The shoulder strap is just rediculous and the snaps are cheap. The nylon strap fastens to plastic D-rings that are ill-fitted, causing the nylon material to bunch up at the narrower ends. I also wonder about the strength of the D-rings, the snaps, etc. One sudden move, or jolt, and those babies could break, spilling your expensive gear onto the concrete, or into the sand, or worse, into a river or lake. The top cover does not fit snugly, even with side snaps secure, allowing dust to get in through the sides -- if you are traveling in a city like Cairo, that's a BIG problem. It also allows people to see into (or perhaps even reach into) the bag. The strap also does not come with a shoulder pad. While I consider comfort a minor priority, it's a pretty big deal to a lot of people.
The bag is good for temporarily storing gear at home in a reasonably dust-resistant environment, or maybe in the back of your car, but because of its size is not really meant for storing all of your gear. I use another dust-proof container for storage of photo gear anyway. But to use it for travel or transporting your gear? There are much better options. I would purchase a low- to mid-range bag that is sturdier, with a better design, like Kata, Lowepro, The Clumper, or whatever fits your needs. Many of these bags are also more scalable, expandable, or part of a system. Do a search on B&H or Samy's for all your options, then buy on Amazon if stocked. (Amazon's search function results are too random.) If you need an adveture bag, look at REI, backcountry.com, etc. These bags are maybe twice or three times the cost of the Nikon gadget bag, but worth the money. They are usually well-designed and constructed, and they don't scream "Expensive camera!" to the world around you. You can go cheap, or you can really protect your gear and get great functionality to boot. But you get what you pay for!
D80 Owner.......2007-07-23
I received the gadget bag as a birthday present. I use the bag to carry my D80 with an 18-200 VR lens, a Sigma 10-20 lens, spare battery, camera remote, spare 2GB SD card and cleaning accessories. They all fit into the bag but it is a tight fit. I wish it were a little larger.
The quality is good and it seems to be water-resistant.

Very nice kit........2007-08-22
I have been using the "Copperhill method" for cleaning my DSLR sensors when they capture enough dust to become a problem. That only happens once every several months of heavy use though, and I was looking for a "kit" style solution to the problem that would fit in my camera bag, and be ready when I felt the need to clean a sensor.
This little kit is a gem. It is exactly the same as the Copperhill method I have been using, but it is assembled in a nice, small zipper case that fits in a pocket on a camera bag. It gives you enough supplies to clean your sensor about 5 times.
If you want to buy bulk PEC pads, and bulk methyl alcohol, you can refill the kit over and over. For it's price though, it's not a bad once per year expense to just buy a new kit.
Very nice product.

Cleaning Machine!.......2007-09-19
This has everything you need to clean your photo sensor on Nkon cameras and Cannon. It also has enough supplies to keep cleaning for some time to come.
An excellent package.......2007-08-10
This is a great package with everything you need! Forget the horror stories you read, you can clean your own sensor hundreds of times with this kit for less than 1 cleaning by a camera store.
It did take me 2 cleanings to get it perfect. The blower got 95% on the first round.

This is a must have if you own a D-SLR.......2007-05-26
I was first worried about build up or streaking on the sensor. So I was hesitant and then I was worried about hurting my precious 30D in the process. Needless to say I didn't need to worry about either.
This product is really easy to use and the instructions are complete leaving nothing to wonder about.
I do have to say even if you use a sensor brush as I do you will come to a point (or) a piece of sticky dust that just wont come off.
This kit got it and now it is clean back to perfect! I didn't hurt my sensor there is not streaking or build up.
I will still use my sensor cleaning painters brush but when it needs a deep cleaning you really can't beat this product!
Great little Kit.......2007-05-09
This kit is really useful and packaged together well with directions! They even threw in some candies. The delivery was really quick!
Excellent value for an essential part of your DSLR kit.......2006-09-15
Your first purchase after buying a DSLR should be a cleaning kit. The cost is relatively low and it might seem like an unnecessary component if the DSLR has anti-dust features but it is an essential part of your kit. I wish I had spent the small sum of money right after I brought my Pentax *ist DL rather than waiting in agony for a number of days for the cleaning kit to arrive (Micro-Tools did ship it very quickly).
The reason you should buy one of these kits is that every DSLR is going to eventually need to be cleaned. Even those that have anti-dust features still cannot completely eliminate dust on the sensor and in the sensor cavity. A kit like this is essential because the blower has a filter on the intake so that you do not blow more dust into the body. I tried using a can of compressed air but it did not work properly, the high temperature changes it creates can be dangerous, and bursts of fluid can come out and hit the sensor. Thankfully, even though I made the sensor much dirtier trying these alternative methods I was able to clean it back to 100% with this kit. The included instructions were precise and to the point. The kit has enough supplies to be used for hundreds of cleanings (remember, quite often all you'll need to do is blow off the sensor with the rocket).
In short, this kit is an excellent value that includes everything you need to maintain your DSLR sensor. The pads and fluid also work well for cleaning lenses. This might sound like an over board review but it rescued me after trying alternative cleaning methods. For the price, you can't go wrong and there is no need to risk damaging your sensor when a kit like this is easily within reach of every DSLR user.

Great DVD but very basic.......2007-09-13
It's a great DVD and rather inexpensive. It's a nice walk through of the basic camera features in 30 mins, but left me wanting to know more. It would have been nicer if they included the content from the other "more advanced" DVD and just charged a bit more. While I enjoyed the DVD and would recommend to someone looking for a very beginner overview of the camera, I would have liked the basics with a few of the more advanced features.

Best digital camera lens for detail ever offered for the price!.......2007-06-19
Hey guys & gals--listen up! I have bought dozens of lenses for both Canon and Nikon and ran tests for detail comparison. One of the things that pro publications look for in an image is how the image detail is at 100%. This lens on front of my Nikon D-200 is a detail weapon and outshines any of the Nikon lenses 10 to 1. In fact the detail was so sharp at 100% from edge to edge that I was fooled thinking it was scaled only to 50% so I scaled it
out to 200% and it still looked good. WOW! Try doing that with the new 18-200 VR! That lens was a dog and I sold it on E-bay and refuse to buy any more Nikon lenses.They are overpriced junk!!! Some of these Sigma lenses (like this one for less than a hundred bucks) is a digital dream--especially if your camera has more than 10 megapixels. The other thing that pro printing looks for is excellent dynamic range and no blown out colors. I couldn't believe the color reproduction on this lens.It
was so.............................accurate. Maybe this lens is a freak
I don't know if they are all like this but this one will stay on my Nikon for almost everything I take. Anyone out there with Nikons ought to order this lens just for the price savings alone.
Good lense at a great price........2007-04-01
Japanese made at a budget price. We wanted an acutal Nikon zoom lense but they were sold out everywhere we looked. Since the Sigma was so inexpensive we decided to try it and use it until the Nikons were back in stock. We were pleasantly surprised and have decided to stick with this lense.
Better than the Package lens.......2007-03-09
I decided to skip the default included Nikor lens that gets bundled with the D80. I decided to look for a nice 2.8 lens to allow for as much light as possible with my new DSLR. The lens is very light and moves with a nice fluidity when zooming. It takes many standard filters for its' class and is well worth the price. So far it performs on scale with lenses twice it's price. I have had sharp focus from corner to corner and a nice focal range. If you're looking for a nice budget lens for your new DSLR, this should be one.
Great value in a very versatile lens!.......2006-07-13
This lens (28-70mm) has been on my Nikon D50 camera most of the time since purchasing it, even though I have 2 other lenses (50mm and 70-300mm Nikkor). This (Sigma) lens is a full stop faster than the Nikon equivalent (and it is less costly!). It comes with a cool looking lens hood that has a bayonet style fitting to the lens. I rated this 5 stars because it is a great value. I highly recommend this lens for someone who wants to take good pictures and doesn't want to spend a small fortune on a lens. Great value!
