Just a Phenomenal DSLR ;-) !!!

Jeffrey the Tax Attorney from New York, NY

This is an exceptional piece of equipment by Nikon. If you combine it with the Nikon DX 18-200 mm lens, that pretty much takes care of all of my photography needs. The D80 snaps into action quick and immediately readies for the next shot. The focus is quick for me, and the AF does the trick in most cases. When I do snap the camera into manual mode, the controls are super intuitive. The viewfinder display makes perfect sense, even to an amatuer photographer. And the pictures taken w/ this camera are absolutely amazing. The color is vibrant and the detail is sharp (probably has something to do w/ the Nikon lenses too). About my only complaint is that it is plastic and the auto exposure tends to over expose it at times (easily fixable). Great camera!!! Thanks for making such an intuitive DSLR for the rest of us!!!

Excellent Buy for the Money Paid

Syed Aqueel from Islamabad, Pakistan

Right after I took it out of the box I shot a wedding. I am in Pakistan so unlike USA, where wedding clothes are mostly in black and white, wedding clothes in Pakistan are full of bright colors and the result I got was stunning with excellent details. I used Nikon 18-200 mm lens which is another great buy for the money. I didn't get a chance to read the manual and considering I have been using Canon for the last 6 years it wasn't too dificult to understand the Camera menu options and I was able to figure out most without reading any documentation. I had some problem with the exposure and focusing but it was due to the fact that I didn't read the manual so I can not blame the camera for that. Picture saving was extremely fast with Sandisk Extreme III 20 MB/S card. It was a joy to have continuous shooting without a lag in saving pictures. Camera feels very solid in hand but then it is heavy so the pros becomes the cons when you have to hold it for a longer duration. For the price I have … Read more

Wonderful Camera

J Murse from Foco, CO

I've had this camera for a couple of years now. I recently decided to get one for my dad because I love it so much. I've never had any problems with it. I get consistently sharp, rich photographs, and I barely know what I'm doing (which is improving). My dad is a professional photographer and loves his new camera as well. He's one of the old timer purists who loathe digital photography. Until now, that is. He loves the images that he is getting, and is amazed at all of the capabilities of this camera. I don't think that you'd regret buying one. Enjoy. Read more

Nothing but praise from the D80

Nothing but praise from the D80

Dau from San Jose, Costa Rica

Only problem I have found is that I have so much fun shooting, I carry it EVERYWHERE. When I shoot, I can quickly eat up a 1 GB chip (about 250 photos on Large Fine jpg setting). Once you start, you just can't stop. I have blown up a very challenging contrast image to 24X30, no pixeling, no loss. Perfect Read more

Fast, fun quality

alacaman from Marquette, Michigan

Comfortable to hold, fast boot and recycle time, controls are easily within reach and custom options are superb. Only drawback is the seals and construction. I've had this unit nine months now and have had to clean the low pass three times. But I love everything else about it. In fact, with the money saved from not buying the D200 I was able to get another quality lens. Read more
