5 out of 5 stars A camera for the transition to pro levels.......2007-09-23

OK. One year passed since I've bought this camera so I can get into a review of my personal experience with it.
First of all, if you consider into buying this model, you should know that this is not a dSLR that you can use on auto settings and get fabulous results. Get a point and shoot for that or a D40/ D40x. D80 seems to be tuned to provide best results with manual modes or semi-auto modes (fixed-aperture or fixed-shutter). I spent almost 1,000 shots until I got used with the behaviour of D80 in different light conditions and with different camera settings. The learning curve may vary, but definitely won't be a steep one.

EXPOSURE: the matrix metering mode is thought to overexpose but, IMO, those that said that use this mode in the wrong situations: high-contrast, high-dynamic scenes which require careful analysis of the zones (with spot metering and/ or center-weighted) and exposure settings should be chosen accordingly. Matrix is fabulous for shooting scenes with the sun to your back, overcast or uniform lighting: exposure is perfect. For all other situation I would highly recommend spot metering.

FOCUS: focus is always dependent on the lens you use. If you invest in this DX body, get a good (pro) lens to suit your needs. The 17-55DX (Click here: Nikon 17-55mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S DX Nikkor Zoom Lens) from Nikon is a fast-focus, super-sharp lens that allows you to take shots using all capabilities of the D80 AF system. However, there are some cheaper lens I would recommend, one of them is the 50mm f/1.8 prime (Click here: Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras), super cheap bargain for the quality you get. The new 55-200VR (Click here: Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED IF AF-S DX VR [Vibration Reduction] Zoom Nikkor Lens + Hoya 52mm UV Haze Protector Glass Filter + CapKeeper Lens Cap Strap + 6-Piece Cleaning Kit - for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras including Nikon D40, D40x, D50, D70, D70s, D80, D100, D200 & D300) is also a bargain but don't expect to get similar sharpness as from the 17-55DX. Overall focus is very fast WITH a fast-focusing lens but will require some learning form you especially if you'll use single point focus so some recomposing technique should also be learned.

COLORS: You'll be ABSOLUTELY AMAZED by the colors this camera will provide you considering that you nailed the exposure and set correct camera settings. Skin tones are natural, vivid and well balanced, blues are deep, reds are explosive, greens are smoothly rendered. But please take tests on all three color modes (two sRGB modes, I and III and one Adobe RGB mode, II) and see which suites you best. If you intend RAW, go for Adobe RGB; for JPEGS use I or III sRGB modes. You should be aware, though, that deep reds tend to overexpose on I and, especially mode III, so either compensate exposure, either go for RAW and mode II. Overall, colors are marvelous and you'll get amazing results once you'll learn how to master the camera.

Please get yourself two rechargeable batts. One is not enough if you intend to shoot all day. Another option would be to buy the grip, the MB-D80 (Click here: Nikon MB-D80 Multi-Power Battery Pack for the Nikon D80 Digital SLR Camera), that allows you to stick 6 AA batteries or two EN-EL (Click here: Nikon EN-EL3e Rechargeable Li-Ion Battery for D200 Digital SLR Camera) rechargeable. With 2 nikon rechargeable batteries the autonomy is VASTLY improved.

HIGH ISO: From my experience, the limit of all-around ISO setting is 1250 for best-detailed photos. However, as you'll learn to better expose ISO 1600 is perfectly usable and ISO 3200 for Black and White or small-sized photos (4x6"). Please remember that higher you get with the ISO, more important is to nail the exposure in order to minimize the noise. In-camera high-ISO noise reduction does marvels IF you'll shoot JPEGs, but please don't use it if you go RAW: you'll loose details.

The camera body is made for middle-sized hands. For bigger hands, the D200 body is more suitable. Most important, for example, is the distance to the buttons than can be reached with the right thumb (the AE/AF-L and the multiple selector). But the controls operate smoothly and you can do a lot of customizing to fit your needs.

Overall, this is an excellent camera and don't get fooled by reviews that point to poor image quality. Almost all cases of poor image quality come from improper use and not enough testing of this camera capabilities. My first results were awful, but after a couple of weeks of continuous learning I started to get amazing results. I'm suggesting 5 topics you SHOULD learn/ cover before or simultaneous with using this camera:

1. Basic controls: aperture, shutter speed, ISO and how they interact;
2. Relationship between aperture and depth of field;
3. Ansel Adams zone theory; very educative
4. Color temperature and color temperature correction
5. RAW files processing

About #5 above, please get yourself good RAW processing software. I use, for my workflow, Nikon's Capture NX (Click here: Nikon Capture NX Software for Windows and Mac) and Adobe Photoshop (Click here: Adobe Photoshop CS2): I squeeze most of image from Capture NX, save it as TIFF and make final adjustments in Photoshop.

Good luck, D80 is worth each penny I spent on it.
And no, I'm not on Nikon's payroll. ;)

2 out of 5 stars Waited so long for it, but disappointed...............2007-09-23

I had a Canon DRebel 300D for 1.5 years before I finally upgraded to the Nikon D80. I waited SOOOOOO long for this camera! I was so excited to get it! Well right off the bat I noticed the focus was off on the camera. I had an 85mm lens (I previously shot with a 50mm) so I thought maybe it was a focal length/shutter speed issue. Then I started noticing metering issues....so many of my pictures were either seriously over or underexposed. Again, I attributed it to user error. But it kept happening and finally I googled the D80 and metering problems and VOILA! It would appear there are quite a few of us struggling with this. Ken Rockwell actually has a good article on the D80 where he addresses these issues.

My camera works well as a studio camera (with strobes) but is very inconsistent for natural light photography. This is a huge disappointment for me. I find myself using my old Rebel to shoot often and that's just sad after spending so much money on a new camera.

This camera could be great if they worked out the "bugs".

5 out of 5 stars Great Digital SLR.......2007-09-19

This is my first digital camera, well, not really, I had a Sony Mavica 1.1 pixels, cerca 1999.

Previously, for serious work, I used a Canon film body with a Nikon CoolScan which scans 3000 dpi.

The D80 is my first "real" digital SLR and I am completely satisfied with its performance.

I consider myself to be a "semi-pro" and this camera fits perfectly (I like the hand grip and features much better than its' sister D40 & D70 models).


5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Upgrade to the D70/D70s.......2007-09-14

I had not planned on upgrading to the D80 from my D70, but around Christmas, a local camera store had a 20% coupon for nearly anything in the store, including the D80. So, my plans changed. I have been a Nikon shooter for a number of years, and my most recent 35mm SLR is a Nikon N80. So, the D70 had a very familiar look and feel to it, and I found the transition from film to digital was pretty comfortable. I researched the D70 for months before buying it and had extremely high expectations for the camera, all of which were exceeded. The D80 retains all the great features of the D70 with improved imaging, new features, and an excellent system of buttons, dials, and menus.

I have really enjoyed shooting with the D80 and find I use a number of different approaches depending on my shooting subject. Aperture preferred, shutter preferred, program, etc. All have their merits. I think that DSLRs today are fantastic, and all the good brands have great offerings. So we can hardly go wrong any more. Since I had the experience with Nikons and some good lenses, I decided to stick with Nikon and have been most pleased. Nikon's approach is to focus on image quality, no pun intended. There is less emphasis with bells and whistles, compared with some other brands. The competition among the big DSLR manufacturers is fantastic for us digital shooters.

This is a great camera, but I think that Nikon should provide Capture NX, its imaging software developed by Nik and Nikon, should not be an add-on at additional expense. Other manufacturers provide that imaging software for free, and I wish there were an ultrasonic dust remover, but this camera is a pleasure to use. Hope this helps you make a decision.

5 out of 5 stars From F5 to D80.......2007-09-07

Well, I finally bit the bullet and stuck my toe into the digital pool. I'm glad I did, and chose the D80 as the vehicle.

I'm an old film fan from way back, and my standard was the F5, an absolutely outstanding camera in every way. I also have a couple of N80s, and a couple of FMs. So I know the Nikon product line pretty well, and of course have a significant investment in lenses, so there was no way I was going to switch to another brand like Canon and have to buy a whole new line of lenses also.

The D80 is a pretty outstanding camera, and utilizes the digital technology pretty impressively. Now that I have some experience with it, I'd recommend to other film users to go with at least this level camera, as the 10 megapixel capability is going to be important to you if you want to use it similarly to film as far as cropping, enlargements, etc.

This camera's easy to use, and if you're familiar with Nikons the learning curve will be very steep; it's all familiar territory. No surprises here.

Excellent quality, excellent image quality. Of course, the ease and speed of seeing your end result as soon as you shoot it -- as opposed to waiting for film processing and printing -- is a huge plus to the digital technology.

The only lens I had to add to my current line with this body was a super-wide zoom, as my 18-35 now became effectively a 28-52. On the up side, my 28-300 now effectively became a 42-450.

All well and good, BUT..... don't throw your film camera away. There are some things that film just does better. The ISO range of digital is much more limited. You can't crank it as low as the available film ISOs, which may impact your ability to take long exposures, especially in daylight. Also, above a relatively modest ISO of 400, you start running into issues that have to be addressed in the digital world that aren't a factor in the film world until much higher ISOs, such as artifacting (the digital equivalent of graininess), lessening of color accuracy, etc. Though there is some compensating programming built into the camera, ISO 400 is a pretty low speed at which to have to start thinking about these kinds of issues. With my F5, there are films available with ISO 3200 that can be pushed to 6400. Digital just comes nowhere near this.

So, a great camera for what it is. A wonderful capability to add diversity to your camera bag. But keep your film camera around.

My parents bought the Nikon D40 for me as a birthday present. I honestly am so amazed at what I can do just with the kit lens! I've used some other Nikon lenses on it, and I really can't say enough about it!

5 out of 5 stars Best Cameras for the price and package D40 & D40X.......2007-09-22

I had been out looking to find a hobby and decided on photography as a way to get out of the house. Needed a camera and after an intense search, chose the Nikon D40. To get the D40 with two lenses (18-55mm and 55-200mm) and for the low cost was great. This outfit allowed me to jump right in and take some great shots. I mounted the D40 on a tripod and take it with me to work and back from work. I have taken some great pictures of sunrises as well as sunsets, etc. I now spend so much time shooting landscape shots in my off-time, that I ended up purchasing another camera (the Nikon D40X). I leave the D40 on the tripod to shoot JPEG shots and carry the D40X to shoot Raw shots that just need to be taken quickly and later corrected using software. I was able to purchase both cameras do what ever I needed because they were both affordable and had all the capabilities I needed to do the shots I wanted to take. With the money I saved of not having to pay for the more expensive systems with the same capabilities as these two systems, I have purchased additional lenses, gear etc. I am extremely happy with these two Nikons and feel Like I am a pro and have the ability to shoot like them with the same results. I might of started out as an amatuer, I now shoot like a PRO. Thank you Nikon.

5 out of 5 stars The best!.......2007-09-20

I bought this camera after researching digital SLRs for a couple weeks. I've had in now for a couple months and love it. I bought the 18-200MM lens which is probably a large part of the reason it is such a pleasure to reach for when there's a photo op. That lens is wide enough to capture people in a room and brings in distance objects very nicely. The lens' VR (vibration reduction) feature is VERY nice too. I've hand-held long exposures and seen little blurring. The real purpose of VR is for those far away shots, but it's nice for slow sutter speeds too. The camera itself feels great in the hand and has a nice finger grip so the camera feels secure when walking around. The menus are pretty straight-forward and I enjoyed reading the manual and experimenting for an hour or so as soon as I unboxed it and charged the battery. You can get great pictures right from the start if you set it on auto, but this camera offers much more if you take the time to study the features. The battery lasts a long time (I think I took about 260 shots without recharging). I also bought the 1GB chip (why cut cheap corners?).
To be a perfect camera, it would give me better control of WHERE to focus on automatic, be easier to frame one area and hold the focus and light metering while I move it (I can do this, but it's not intuitive enough for my little brain to remember after a week!), it would have more than 6MP so I could crop out small areas without losing detail.
Great camera! You won't be disappointed. Oh yeah - I also go the ss-400 flash untit that lets you bounce it off the ceiling. It's great!
Get the camera - you'll love it!!

5 out of 5 stars Best dSLR On the Market.......2007-09-16

There are certainly more capable cameras available that provide more adjustments and have bigger sensors, but for $500 this cannot be beat. It exudes quality and has a rather large 2.5" screen. Moreover, it is very small, yet fits my hand quite well (my hands are as big as Johnny Bench, so...). Best of all this camera has motivated me to get out and take pictures because it is so easy to use. It's simple: dust off your wallet and get one of these!

Excellent SLR digital camera. Initial shipping report was in fact delayed a few days as camera was not in stock.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent SLR. Very light and versatile........2007-09-24

Excellent camera in combination with 18-200VR lens. It does
not autofocus with non AF-S lenses, but I consider it an asset since it makes the camera significantly lighter for walking around. Also, AF-S lenses are focusing significantly faster and quieter than the old screw-type ones.

To use older AF lenses, consider getting Katz-eye for this camera to assist with manual focusing. I personally prefer manual focusing with prime lenses as it's faster and would get you exactly the results you want.

I will assume if you're looking at buying this particular camera model, then: a. You are looking at upgrading from a point-N-shoot. Or, b. An intermediate to advanced photographer looking for a decent backup camera. Since I have owned this camera, I have been doing a lot of shooting with a friend of mine who happens to do photography for a living. My friend uses a Fujifilm S3 pro dSLR. Let me tell you, there isn't much difference in picture quality between the $700 d40x or $2,300 S3 pro when using the same lens. Both cameras are capable of producing almost identically amazing pictures. The main difference is when buying the d40x, you can get about the same quality photos for more than 3x cheaper than an average pro-level SLR camera.

If there was one thing I would do over again, I would definitely buy the d40x as a camera body only. Not that the kit lens is bad, but it's rather limiting to your d40's potential. Having the chance to use Nikon's 18-200mm VR lens has made me a real believer of how important a really good lens is for great photography.

My only major gripes about the d40x is the lack of adjustment buttons and no aperture dial the higher end dSLR's have. It can be somewhat annoying having to go into the camera's menu screen to make simple adjustments.

The PRO's for sure outweigh the few CON's this camera has. It's a great dSLR camera to start out with. The only real limitations of the d40x will be the skill level of the person behind it.


4 out of 5 stars Great beginner dslr camera.......2007-09-13

I went to a camera store and it came down to this and the Canon and the sales person told me to get the Nikon. She said the d40x was really only if you wanted the extra pixels otherwise the d40 was fine. It's been a great camera and takes amazing photos. No shutter lag like on my point and shoot. I recommend getting the package with the telephoto to get close up to objects. I'm still learning all the features, but in "auto" mode you can use it like a point and shoot and already take better photos. I'll be happy to take it on many trips and look forward to testing it over time. In addition to the camera, I bought a 2GB SD memory card, camera bag and both a UV and polarizer filter (all highly recommended with the camera).

5 out of 5 stars For the price, this camera is amazing..........2007-09-08

Having been an enthusiastic (old style, but highest quality) SLR user for many years and having then switched to several digital compacts, from the disappointingly basic (circa 2000) through to the brilliant latest versions (in my case, a 7.0 megapixel Panasonic Lumix), I was intrigued when a professional photographer friend said I should check out the new generation of low cost digital SLRs and, in particular, the Nikon D40x... you'll enjoy it she said... and she wasn't wrong.

First off, the price was only £150 or so more than a top end compact with the same 10 megapixel rating and, in the shop, it turned out to be smaller and much lighter than the old, dramatically more expensive SLRs I used to lug around... so, worth the plunge?

A resounding yes, not only does it deliver the most beautiful, high quality photos but the control options over virtually all aspects of shot selection, including a powerful built in flash unit, are quite incredible - far better and much, much more comprehensive than I'd expected - with the ever present, wholly effective, compact-style "point & shoot" option if you can't be bothered. Plus, you get a large preview screen and extensive "in camera" editing features that allow a wide range of post-shot manipulation if you don't have access to your PC. Just amazing... everything, plus a huge amount more, that I got from my previous SLRs.

Could it get any better? Well yes, because the stock Nikon autofocus zoom lens that comes with the camera (rated at 18-55 mm new digital style and equivalent to a just about perfect 26-83 mm old style) is now matched with Nikon's new, low cost, autofocus DX VR lens (rated at 55-200 mm new digital style and equivalent to 83-300 mm old style) which really does cut out camera shake to allow genuine "point & shoot" at its higher focal lengths. In other words, for a total cost of well under £600 I got a stunningly powerful and flexible camera plus a "tripod-less" combination of two lightweight autofocus Nikkor lens covering a full 26-300 mm range... which is nothing short of sensational for any "old style" SLR user like me.

SLRs are a different world from compact cameras - you definitely can't fit them in your pocket - but for anyone wanting to move up to a different level for not much more, or for anyone wanting to rediscover the lost joys of their SLR past at an incredibly cheap entry price, the Nikon D40x is a "must have" option... certainly it's got one more very happy user.

5 out of 5 stars 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.

5 out of 5 stars 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.

5 out of 5 stars 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.

5 out of 5 stars 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.
