Nikon-D200

Nikon - D200 Review

Price (MSRP): $1699
Megapixel: 10.2
Type: Digital SLR
Submitted by: Reviewer from Mayne Island, British Columbia ,
Date Reviewed: 4/27/2008
Months Owned: 12 Months
Photos Taken: 2500+
Skill Level: Pro

What's Hot: Well designed ergonomics.

What's Not: Focus mode switch is easy to change accidentally, also there is no shutter for the eyepiece.

Review: This is the best camera I have owned. I am a part-time pro shooting mostly scenic and journalistic photography and have found this camera to be reliable with many easy to change settings. It's also pleasant to hold. With the 18-200 lens, the quality is outstanding. I did have a problem with the rubber grip, which had to be replaced, but support from Nikon Canada was great.
