I didn't think I'd get the D200 either, but the salesman offered it to me at the same price as the D80 so I took it.<BR/><BR/>In terms of picture quality, they're identical according to comparison studies.

The current one I am using is awful for action shots. <BR/><BR/>He is a Nikon rep and is getting me the camera D80 at cost!

And all the photos you posted are wonderful, as always! <BR/><BR/>That is an awesome feature to be able to take multiple pics in a few seconds. It sucketh to have to wait, believe me.

They are so familiar to me.<BR/><BR/>And as you know, I adore my 28-200 which I bought almost exactly the same time as you!!! <BR/><BR/>Can I say again how handsome those boys are?

I was somewhat taken aback at the part about "blowing out the red" (whatever that means), because I misread it as "blowing off the red swimming trunks", and I thought "None of my cameras have ever been able to do that!" LOL. Doug has a very nice dive, BTW.<BR/>JoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
