Excellent piece of Equipment

(Gary Jones - 3/25/09)

After lots of research a couple of years ago, I settled on the D80 body and added the 18-200 VR lens. This is a combination that I would recommend to my best friends. I admit that I have not experienced later generation cameras, but am not envious. Nikon still builds them which is a good testimonial. It is very intuitive and the in-camera features make it usable for users far beyond "entry Level", or pro-sumer equipment. The D90 has the movie feature, which would be convenient, but I shoot stills. 3 fps is slow for sure. It's hard to fault otherwise. Construction is very good. I see no need to upgrade in the forsee-able future, and my money will go to lenses and accessories.
