1 out of 5 stars The camera has a few problems...   May 11, 2008
The D80 has two problems. The first is a "firmware" defect that causes most pictures to be under exposed, most pictures look too bright. The second problem involves the sharpness of the pictures. I bought almost every lens that Nikon makes, and could never get that sharpness that I was looking for, until I bought the Nikon D300. Wow, the Nikon D300 is INCREDIBLE! The problems I had with sharpness, were do to the SENSOR I believe, and it makes sense! Yes, the D80 takes "good" pictures, but the D300 takes INCREDIBLE pictures. The D80 has a CCD sensor, and the D300 has a CMOS sensor, is this the difference? I don't know, but my D300 takes razor sharp images! Wow. I sold my D80, and I've never been happier!


5 out of 5 stars features features...   May 8, 2008
This is my first digital slr camera, which I've had for about a month now and it's great. Considering how many features it has its relatively easy to use, I just picked it out of the box and started getting amazing quality pictures with my nikkor vr 18-200mm lens. I'm sure it'll be only better when i figure out the more obscure details.


5 out of 5 stars Super camera at a resonable price!   May 6, 2008

I recently upgraded from a Nikon D70 to the D80, and I am in love with my camera again! I had stopped using the D70 because it seemed no matter what I did my images were always grainy looking. With the D80 all of my images have been extremely sharp, even with an older 300mm lens. I also love being able to hold down the shutter button and let the camera take picture after picture, I have been able to get some amazing shots as a result. I think the built in flash is more powerful than on the D70 as well, some pictures I took inside turned out good and did not look like an obvious flash picture (shadows, dark background, etc.). I highly recommend this camera.


5 out of 5 stars Razor sharp   May 5, 2008
I upgraded from the D40 as my introduction to DSLRs to the Nikon D80. There were a few more knobs and gadgets on the camera but well put together. I went to Seaworld and snapped off some shots with my 18-55mm and my 105mm Fisheye glass. I couldn't believe the difference this was from my D40. I am so impressed with the quality, I am enrolling in UC San Diego Extension class to learn the things I can't seem to get from all the books and manuals I've read. This has become my new passion and I feel, without spending a mortgage payment, this camera can get me to the next level and maybe start getting paid for what I now love to do.

Research the product and figure out what you want to do with it. Whether it be strictly a hobby or move into the professional realm. This camera is a great starting point.



5 out of 5 stars Amazing camera   May 5, 2008
This is a really great product, even 2 years after its launch. Ok, a new one may be available in a few months, but way more expensive. And this one is almost perfect!
the only bad experience I have is the write speed: it is "only" 9Mb/s. So wif you shoot many pix in a row, the bufer will be full and the camera won't be able to write fast enough on the card, even with an extreme III. To shoot without any trouble, you need to but the quality in jpeg (the better compression) and not raw.
Except this, it is a very good camera!
