Nikon D200 digital SLR review at ephotozine.
In summery[sic], the positive points of the D200 are:
- Excellent build and good sealing.
- Fast and accurate 11 point autofocus system a good step up from the older CAM900
- Good noise control (for a CCD sensor)
- Full range of easily configured controls, good metering and TTL flash systems.
- Much improved CF access.
- Excellent value for money.
The negative points are:
- RAW Software included is abysmal. Capture 4 is extra and still not good.
- Batteries not compatible with D70/70s
- Viewfinder only 95% coverage (minor niggle)
Personally, I don't see the D200 as a compelling upgrade from what I already have – the D70. If I were buying now, instead of about a year ago, then the D200 would be what I was aiming for.
