D200 4.6 5 26 26

Old faithful I've had this camera since 2007. So 5 years now. Many, many photographs later -- in jungles, sandstorms, torrential rain, snow, and at incredibly high altitudes, it still continues to serve me well. It's been great to own. And I can't say I, even now, feel the need to replace it. (It's one weakness is poor low-light ability, but for a camera shipped in 2005, you can't blame it, or compare it to the newer cameras out there) February 4, 2012

A serious prosumer DSLR. I got one of the first D200's in Maine and it has been an excellent "workhorse" for me. Quite replete with features and functions. Excellent image quality. Magnesium body has proven its worth (I have fallen on it several times). Low light level limitations on focus speed and not great at high ISO's. October 20, 2011

Great Camera! I have had the D-200 for over 5 yrs. It has work smoothly and flawlessly. The controls are easy to use once you get used to it. It seems to be standard on Nikon D cameras. The full frame picture is the reason I purchased this camera. This is a keeper!. September 17, 2011

Excellent, but small sensor has limitations The camera produces excellent pictures. Noise in dark shadows can be a problem at higher ISO settings. As with film cameras the smaller sensor size can be a bit of an issue with big enlargements. Conservative use of VR and a tripod can minimize this issue. Also the small sensor's 1.5X factor reduces the field, so that one loses the wide angle effect of wide angle lenses. In all other ways, this is a splendid camera. August 22, 2011

Still a great camera! Two month after I had bought my D200 the D300 came out. Bad luck I thought... now I am waiting for a successor of the D700 before I upgrade to FX format. I still love working with the D200 in spite of all the advancements and improvements that Nikon made since the D200. The ergonomics of the D200 are perfect for me; plus she takes great photographs and has never let me down. Accidentally, I left her out in the rain one night. She didn't even sneeze the next day and just kept doing her job. The D200 still is a great camera that I will not part with no matter what my next camera will turn out to be. August 1, 2011

Industry Recognition

Popular Photography & Imaging

Popular Photography & Imaging, Winter 2007

Popular Photography & Imaging has recognized the Nikon D200 as one of the outstanding products of photography in 2006. Editor Michael McNamara summed up the D200’s award selection by stating that the camera is “fast, reliable and capable of handling a wide variety of conditions.” McNamara points out that the excellent image quality, tough camera body, long battery life and superb optical viewfinder make the D200 a true award-winning camera.

American Photo

May/June 2006, Nikon D200 | Jonathan Barkey

In its May/June 2006 issue, American Photo calls the D200 “the best mid-priced DSLR you can buy.” Jonathan Barkey states that the D200 is a “home run” and “a pleasure to have and to hold” in his glowing review of the camera. Noting that the D200 is extremely responsive with a “big for its class” optical viewfinder and a “rock-solid construction,” Barkey also notes his fulfillment with the camera’s variety of user-friendly attributes. He praises the D200 on its ability to pack the core features of high-priced cameras into a “smaller, lighter package” advising photographers to consider this mid-priced digital SLR when purchasing a top-of-the-line camera.

American Photo

American Photo Editor’s Choice 2006 Award

“If we had to pick a single American Photo camera of the year, the Nikon D200 would take that honor,” stated American Photo in their July/August 2006 issue. Distinguished as an American Photo “Editor’s Choice 2006,” editors were impressed with the small size, yet feature-full package of the camera. Refined, advanced, best of class, sturdy and extremely responsive were some of the ecstatic words editors used to describe the camera after they enjoyed the superb image quality and menu system of the D200.

Shutterbug

May 2006, Nikon D200 | George Schaub

According to Shutterbug Editorial Director, George Schaub, digital SLR cameras have “opened up a new world of low-light and hand-held shooting” and the built-in noise reduction filter in Nikon’s D200, makes photography an “even more attractive pastime.” Schaub also states that the D200 delivers imaging power for enlargements, crops to 8x10 prints and has more imaging options than one could imagine—not much this camera cannot handle.

Camera Grand Prix

Camera Grand Prix 2006 Award

Nikon Corporation is pleased to announce that the D200 digital SLR camera has been selected by Japan’s Camera Press Club to receive the Camera Grand Prix 2006 award. The Camera Grand Prix is the Japanese photo industry’s most prestigious award for a camera. The committee members issued the following statement in support of bestowing the Camera Grand Prix 2006 honor on the D200. “The Nikon D200 contributes to the widespread dissemination of photographic culture as a digital SLR offering superior operability at an affordable price for both entry-level digital SLR camera users as well as professional and highend amateur photographers.”

Popular Photography & Imaging

April 2006, Nikon D200 | Michael McNamara

Popular Photography & Imaging Executive Technology Editor, Michael McNamara, clarified some of his unanswered questions during an in-depth review of the D200 in the magazine’s April issue. Stating that images from the D200 “rival” those from the D2X, McNamara gave the D200 a rave review. He also notes that the D200 has superb color accuracy, and the images it produces have great saturation and a wide dynamic range.

Hello, I would like to take 5 photos set at -2, -1, 0, +1, +2. I can easily set this up but is there a way to have the camera take all 5 pictures in a row by just pressing the shutter release once? I don't want to have to press the shutter release 5 times to take these 5 pictures.

You have to press the shutter 5 times or you can set the camera in continuous but you will need to hold the shutter button down until it takes the 5 pictures.

Thanks. But I have to keep the shutter depressed until all 5 pictures are taken correct (on CH mode)?

Answer:

Once you have your bracketing set put the camera in continuous shooting and just press and hold the shutter button, it will take all bracketed images in one go.

You can set this up yourself by going to the setup menu (with the little wrench icon) and adding a commentary line to your photos. I have it set to add my e-mail address in stead of my serial number though.

Answer:

Nikon does not disclose camera API code, but you'll find a lot about if you do an Internet search. As to controlling the D200 from a computer, you have the $180 Nikon Camera Control Pro 2, and, again with some Internet search, you'll find several third party software that will provide you with some camera control functionality - some of them even for free - although I don't know of any that gives you absolute full control as the NCCP does.

But if you want to take full control of the camera from the computer, then you'll need the $180,00 Camera Control Pro 2

Answer:

1) The D200 shares the basics with most dSLRs. The instruction manual is probably the best start. If you like to read, several intermediate and advanced books about the D200 are available at most online book stores. If you prefer more intuitive tutorials, there are literally *hundreds* if you search the web for "d200 tutorials". Last - but not least -, try to learn one item at a time, try it on the camera, take notes, and only then move on to a different subject. I may suggest you start learning the 6 most important settings: autofocus (continuous and single; focusing area), diaphragm aperture (depth of field control, diffraction control, best sharpness point), shutter speed, ISO, and white balance. After these, complete your knowledge with flash usage (specially the different shutter syncs available). Enjoy the process!

2) It's a fairly old camera, made way before digitutor was released. Since it's been discontinued for almost four years now, I don't believe Nikon will put the effort (and the cost) of developing one.
