The Nikon D200 is clearly an advanced DLSR that will please many photographers. It is clearly aimed at professionals since it has no fully automatic mode and no scene modes. Its unique selling points are a 10 megapixel sensor and a 5 FPS continuous drive mode. Recall that with a 10 megapixel sensor, perfect 13"x19" prints are possible. With a 27 JPEG image buffer which can sustain 5 FPS, this camera has matched the sports performance of the Read more
When it was announced in November last year the D200 caused quite stir (and not just in the Nikon camp). It was clear from the start that about the only thing this camera shared with its official predecessor (the D100) was the Nikon badge and it's '00 name. From a design, build, features and performance point of view this camera really creates its own niche, it would be a pity to label it as 'semi-pro' because in use you soon realize that it's a professional camera....

The Nikon D200 Digital SLR Camera combines an impressive list of pro-class features in a model that is much less expensive than the Nikon D2X. But because you get what you pay for, there are always pros and cons to the D200. Some of the problems in the D200 include the following: no option of saving images in TIFF format, increased ISO noise when used at higher values/levels, and a lack of color-space options. Deficiencies aside, this is a great camera. The built-in... Read more
first post: 3/19/06 eBook available: 4/3/06 fixed commander mode: 4/30/06 Nikon D200 Review The average man's D2x? The Pro shooter's D2x backup? Or just more megapixels for amateurs? Add a comment or send Thom feedback on this article. Six months ago Nikon seemed stuck in the consumer DSLR marketplace. D100: 6mp. D70: 6mp. D50: 6mp. D70s: 6mp. All cameras used the same basic Sony sensor, and all shared a wide range of features and performance. Indeed, up until late 2005,... Read more
The D200 is a slightly older sibling to the Nikon D300 and it costs a little less too. It incorporates a magnesium-alloy body and an eleven-point auto focus system. If you want a DSLR with professional qualities, but don’t want to purchase the D300, then seriously consider this camera. It also has a 2.5-inch LCD and can take five fps continuous. Read more
I love this camera. High iso not the best but one can usually work around that. The 18-200 kit lens is awesome. Recent photos from the race track captured some amazing pictures of cars racing. Very happy with it. Big improvement over the D100 which it replaced. Read more
I have this camera for a while and I'm very happy with my decision. I'm really impressed by the build quality and the AF/metering performance. Also, people usually complain about noise in this camera. I, however, really like the high ISO noise. It is grainy, especially in the shadow areas, but it has a high-speed-film appeal to it. I personally don't mind the noise so much but maybe it's just me. Note that this D200 is now a two-generation-old camera (the D300s has... Read more
The D200 is a technical workhorse. You have a lab literally in your hands to customize your pictures, even before you upload them into your PC. I like the heft of it in my hand, which reminds me of my old N4004. Over 600 images with a 2GB flash card relieves me of worries I had with my old N4004s of missing that rare shot when I came to the end of my film cartridge. Complaint? The Multi Selector could be more user-friendly, and the LCD protector is hard to remove,... Read more
I have shopped for months, and I think I could have not made a better choice when making a decision, Nikon really should give themselves a pat on the back when they made this camera. The photos really come alive when they are used with the Nikkor lenses... Read more
I have being contemplating jumping into the semi-pro/pro body realm since I outgrew my D40x a year ago, but the prices have been unrealistically high. The D200, though using nearly 4-year old technology, has been a staple for many Nikonians until the D300 was release in 2007; but I never felt that the enhanced AF abilities and ISO capabilities were justifying the extraordinary $1699 price tag of the D300 versus the D200! So I made the jump when a price drop happened, got... Read more or see product
