Nikon D200 review

 

Is the 'semi-pro' D200 the missing link in Nikon's range?

Excellent performance in all areas

Wide-angle coverage limited by lens magnification

The camera that many looking for an affordable D-SLR that could be used professionally have been waiting for

Nikon D200 digital SLR camera

 

The closest camera to the new D200 in terms of specification, build and handling is Nikon's D2x but the D200 is lighter and smaller than that camera yet features most of that camera's power – if not exceeds it – in terms in terms of both shooting and...

Excellent image quality, excellent ergonomics, design and control layout, great menu system, good combination of customisable controls and custom shooting options

Default sharpening level is low, intrusive image noise over ISO 1600

Overall, the D200 provides enough kit and control for the most demanding professional or enthusiast snapper. The image quality is superb with the advanced metering and AF system combining well (albeit with that odd slight underexposure) with nary a...

Nikon D200

 

Nikon's D200 is a 10.2Mp (megapixel) digital SLR (single-lens reflex) designed for serious amateurs and professional photographers. It's the successor to the ageing Nikon D100 and competes directly against Canon's EOS-20D and, to a lesser extent, the...

Nikon's D200 offers 10.2Mp resolution and professional build quality for £1,299. This may be twice the price of budget digital SLRs, but it's far cheaper than Nikon's Pro model. If you're serious about photography, it's the most affordable...

Nikon D200 review

 

The Nikon D200, a long-awaited successor to the company's D100, offers serious amateur photographers and value-minded professionals a compact, sub-$2,000 digital SLR with many of the specifications, features, and build characteristics of Nikon's...

Plentiful controls and accessories; strong performance; excellent image quality; rugged body.

JPEG artifacts crimp image quality; no TIFF mode.

An excellent midrange digital SLR, the D200 has given way to its even better successor, the D300. However, it remains a great choice if you can find it at a good price.

Best D-SLR Expert: Nikon D200

 

Though it's less than 2000 euros, the Nikon D200 offers a resolution of 10 million pixels (3872 x 2592) with files of 32.78 x 21.95cm at 300 dpi. You can shoot with a sensitivity of up to ISO 400 and even 800 without too much concern about noise or...

Nikon D200

 

As a replacement for the D100, Nikon's new pro-level DSLR has been a long time coming. A lot of hopes are riding on this camera, especially among Nikon aficionados, so does it make the grade?

The D200 is superbly tailored to pro and semi-pro photographers. It's the camera that Nikon fans have been waiting for

As expected the D200's image quality is superb with the advanced metering and AF system combining well (albeit with an odd slight underexposure on some shots). We didn't get many bad shots with this baby. Colour balance and detail are crisply rendered,...
