Note: this entry is based on something I posted on the D200 forum at Nikonians

There has been a lot of posting in online forums about how to choose between the D80 and the D200 (believe me, I have read a lot of it in the past two weeks) and the best advice that I have found in those threads is to look inward at the type of photographer you are and then match the camera to your needs. I am posting this to help others who may be going through the same process, but ultimately, you need to make the choice based on your own evaluation of your needs and your assessment of the equipment you test. In other words, don’t decide to buy one camera or the other based on my choice or someone else’s review. Instead, evaluate your needs; evaluate the features of the cameras you are considering, and best of all, test them all, if you can.
