Quick review

The good
Excellent image quality, excellent ergonomics, design and control layout, great menu system, good combination of customisable controls and custom shooting options
The bad
Default sharpening level is low, intrusive image noise over ISO 1600
Verdict
The D200 is not just a simple upgrade it is more a professional camera than semi-pro (or prosumer) model in fact it’s a cracker
