Nikon D80 ... developed for the D80 is its high-resolution image-processing engine. At its heart is a dedicated high-performance processing chip that greatly accelerates performance on all levels, while also consuming less power than its predecessors. It also inherits advantages developed exclusively for Nikon's latest professional digital SLR cameras, combining color independent analog pre-conditioning with improved 12-bit digital image processing algorithms. The result is natural-looking images that benefit from faithful color and tone reproduction. The level of performance attained allows the engine to rapidly and efficiently process the 10.2-megapixel resolution images captured by the DX Format CCD image sensor.

 ... heavier, it is a better build quality [unless you move up to the EOS 30D, which is much pricier]. Realistically, they will all give very good results, and unless you're a serious pro, you might not see the difference (I'm sure I wouldn't!)]. At the end of the day, you need to pick them up and see how they feel for you. Battery life is excellent, will easily shoot 500 shots outside [I don't use the flash much, so can't comment on that]. I took it on hols for two weeks, and didn't need to re-charge when I was away. You can...more

Premium Review Nikon D80: Great, "proper" camera (432 words)

Have had an eye on a digital SLR for some years, but never got around to taking the plunge until this chap came along. I'd been using two Sony cameras, which were very good for general family shots. However, as my sons got older and started playing rugby and football, they just couldn't keep up. DSLRs don't suffer from a delay from pressing the shutter to taking the picture, and so the moment isn't lost. Also, it has a three frames a second speed, which is brilliant for sports shots. I use with a 4Gb card, which will take over a 1000 shots, even at max resolution. Don't think I've ever used more than 500, but it's nice to know there's still plenty of room!! It ...

Wow what a fantastic camera, after having various digital cameras, that all seemed to do something great, but this has the whole package. User friendly, with great features for the expert to the enthusiast. Although a larger camera, I have been able to take it to various events for close up work to long distance shots for stage events. it offers compatable software for most PC's to be able to download with ease on to your computer. Although the price for the inital purchase is pretty high, i feel this camera will be able to grow with your experience that you gain from using its various features. The picture quality seems to be extremely high, and although it does ...

I have had this camera several months. I am a young enthusiast photographer who upgraded from a digital compact. The camera has worked very well in all kinds of photography situations, from gigs, sports events and parties to fine art, close up work and portraiture. The picture quality is excellent and don't be fooled by a need for a greater pixel count. Some rival camera's have more, some cheaper have more too but pixel count is no rival for picture quality and this provides it in leaps and bounds. Ease of use is superb, amateurs will be overjoyed with the simplicity of this camera and the standard of the results provided. In camera editing is as ...
