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.

When I first began photography I started with a Nikon D3100. It was great after awhile but then I wanted a camera that could focus much faster and had a better overall build quality. The Nikon D200 was a great choice.
Upon opening the package, I noticed it was wrapped nicely and my first reaction was how heavy and huge the camera body was compared to my baby D3100. The lens wasn't even on the D200 body yet and it still packed on a mean weight in the hand and felt solid.
Shooting with this bad boy is great. I can get 5fps in full burst mode which is more than enough for sports or action. Now it may not be up to par with the Nikon D300s, considering the d200 was released around 2005 or so, however the d200 still performs really well during the day time or well lit areas. I've also noticed how easily it is to access all the buttons pertaining to white balance, iso, etc. There is a front dial to change the f stop which isn't available on my d3100.
Unfortunately, with every good thing comes a bad thing. I've noticed the D200 performs rather poorly in low light considering auto focus speed and iso range. A low light lens would definitely help. The images begin to get grainy when you raise the iso up to 800 and above. There also isn't a live view mode either which is disappointing since my d3100 has live view. Then again, this camera IS an old model.
I really love the professional feel of this camera though. Nikon really built this thing to last. It even has weather sealing built in to protect the camera from dust and moisture.
I would definitely recommend this camera if you're on a budget or if you want a more "serious feel" camera body.
A great step up from P&S cameras. This is an older pro camera now at an affordable price. The feel is great, the larger viewfinder and playback screen are great. Nikons last forever if you take care of them. HOWEVER, a few things to know: This takes an CF card , which is now antiquated and harder to find. Newer laptops and desktops wont have ports for them like SD cards. There is no auto popup flash. You have to turn it on and set it up. Make sure you get one with a Nikon battery,charger & CF card. Otherwise these will run you another $100 dollars. Low shutter count is key, and there are plenty of them out there with that.
This indeed is the best kept secret on buying a used Nikon digital SLRs...
10MP with 300 dpi and RAW shooting is not far from current state of the art new digital cameras - just minus the video features.
Accepts and works with all past and present AF lenses - D series, G series and VR types. It can even meter and shoot with old Nikkor manual focus lenses that are AIS or AI'd.
You can pick up those inexpensive sharp Nikkor MF lenses on eBay...just make sure they are AI'd or AIS with a metering notch on the rear mount.
I'm biased because I've owned one since 2006, paid around $1600 back then; and recently bought one again as a spare to back up the original D200 that has gone through 60,000 clicks.
Recent sales on eBay are practically give aways...ranging from $200 to $300 complete bodies with charger. Some offerings even packaged lens, CF memory cards, extra batteries, owner's manual, original box etc.
Go shop and you won't be disappointed if you can find the right mix. You will not find comparable digital SLRs with 300 dpi and features that can top this D200 below $300
Several weeks I spent on thinking - what camera to buy and which brand to go for, 'cause this is important ('cause you gonna buy some lenses for exact brand).
1. This is crop-frame camera with full-frame camera features. I really liked it. I can't get anything like this from Canon (for example) with the same price!!! Any 50d, 1100d, 350d-600d cannot be compared to this model (and they are way expensive).
2. Body is made from magnesium alloy, real weather sealed. First thing I noticed when I held this first time - it feels professional, not a tiny plastic body... This is not a toy!
3. I liked built-in focus motor (so every available lens should work nice), phase-detection auto focus system (instead of contrast-detection), every button I need is on body, no "smart" wheel for different modes for beginners, with green mode! 1/8000 shutter speed! 5 fps cont. shooting in RAW! And pentaprism viewfinder (instead of pentamirror in cheap cameras).
4. Nikon D200 doesn't have lens auto focus calibration (from body), viewfinder coverage is 95%, quality is nice till ISO800 for most time (of course you can try 1600, which will be enough good also, but don't expect Full-Frame camera low-light performance), LCD screen is smaller than nowadays other even entry-level cameras, but it is not very bad (you need to be used to), doesn't have Live View (but this is fully OK for me, anyway I prefer viewfinder to see "real" picture I'm gonna get).
I'm recommending this camera, don't buy old models like d80, go for D200. If you have enough money and don't have camera, buy D7000 or even better buy used D700 which is full-frame professional camera with legendary picture quality!
P.S. don't buy much dx-lenses, to have chance to use them if you will upgrade to full frame camera
It's a very good model to start out with because it's a cheaper, but older professional model.
It has good enough colors. It has good enough features.
The 1/8000 max shutterspeed is wonderful, the focus motor is awesome.
This lens a great start for anyone.
