Nikon - D200 Digital Camera — 

My Nikon D200 has opened up a whole new world of advanced Digital SLR photography. I got into digital SLR photography a couple of years ago with an entry level Nikon D50. This introduced me to the concept of images that could then be processed into fine photographs. After just a few months I wanted to step up to a higher level camera. The Nikon D200 has been great. I have traveled around the western US and taken thousands of images. My photography has become better than I ever thought it could using the Nikon D200. There are now more advanced systems from Nikon but I still am getting great results with my Nikon D200. No mechanical or electronic problems even after 22-3 years and 10,000 + images.

This is not a light camera for easy portability on trips or hikes but the weight trade off is worth the high quality that it provides. If you are serious about stepping up to a higher level the Nikon D200 is a great camera and as newer systems become available, it will be a bargain.

Some of my images can be seen at vibrant-light-photography.smugmug.com
