Fills a niche and does it well, very well

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 2006
The Bottom Line: I have recommended this camera to several other buyers and they all report back that they are well pleased with the D200.
Review: The D200 fits into the Nikon range between the professional D2 and the consumer models (D50, D70 etc.). It provides good value for money and a solid, reliable basis for digital photography. The ergonomics are excellent and attention to detail is...

It's been a Roller Coaster Ride....but worth it!

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2006
The Bottom Line: Get it! If you have a D1X at twice the price, dump it and get this.
Review: I definitely think Nikon has a winner here. Originally I was going to get a D70s but when I heard about the D200, I waited. I'm glad I did....well, based on four days of use.

I placed my D200 on order in mid February. I was immediately...

Think carefully before you buy this camera

Date of Review:  May 25, 2006
The Bottom Line: Stick with your D70, or get the D2X
Review: Like most people here I wrote a a glowing review when I had first purchased the D200. This can be a poor time to write because people can be hypnotized by an expensive new toy.

Over a period of six months I have changed my opinion about...

Pro-level at consumer price

Date of Review:  Mar 14, 2009
The Bottom Line: This may be "old" technology, but with the price coming down to $600 (from likr $1600), it's well worth it.
Review: I've been jonsin' for the D200 for about a year, and finally got one. At $600, the price was right.

This won't be a technical review; it's a user review, because I'm no technician. You want specs, go to dpreview.com.

This is my fourth...

Soft Focus on D200

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2007
The Bottom Line: Test this camera in your hand before buying it. Soft focus problem in not in all D200's but with so many threads and posts why chance it?
Review: I purchased the D200 with the 18-200 combo in October of 2006. I started shooting with the enthusiasm that comes with new equipment however I was feeling disappointed with the results. It seemed that even in daylight conditions I was getting soft...

AutoFocus is only shortcoming

Date of Review:  Oct 18, 2008
Review: This is a great camera that will deliver super sharp images . . . unless you use autofocus. I've given the autofocus every chance. It simply does not work. I've assumed it was a software shortcoming but I don't know that. The answer is, of course,...

A camera of many considerations...

Date of Review:  Nov 22, 2006
The Bottom Line: A camera of the times. 2005 sweetheart. 2006 has another sweetheart, the D80.
Review: Everyone has very well documented the features and performance of the D200 beautifully, so hopefully I will not repeat too many observations here.

I own the Nikon D70s as well, and have a basic compliment of lenses. The 70mm to 300mm and...

Simply Amazing..

Date of Review:  Aug 5, 2007
Review: Overall, the camera is a great buy at a great price. The features of the D200 are quite amazing and superb build. Great upgrade from other Nikon cameras with professional feel. Body has a nice strong feeling and has great fitment for my hands. I...

opened my eyes!

Date of Review:  Jan 7, 2007
Review: I bought a D200 about 6 months ago and it was my first leap into the digital SLR. After initial disappointment with image quality (I had previously been using medium format equipment) I took the time to learn about RAW conversion and digital imaging...

Best Digital SLR for the money

Date of Review:  May 11, 2006
Review: Hands down the best digital SLR for the money. Even taking the bang-for-the-buck factor our of the equation, many pro photographers will opt for the D200 over other models because of its excellent blend of: unbeatable ergonomics, solid build,...
