I just received my D80 a few days ago with the 18-200mm VR lens from B&H. Just thought I share the opening, and few of the pictures that I have already taken.

Is now a good time to buy a Nikon d80?
Posted by admin | Under D80 Nikon 18 200mm Thursday Sep 2, 2010I’m wondering if I should get a d80 now or if I should wait for what Nikon will release next. I could easily wait, but does anyone know when that will be?
Also what is wrong (if anything) with buying from a discount online site (http://www.stop4camera.com/shop/Product.asp?sku=nkd80) so long as they offer a warranty? I’ve read about some problems with hot pixels, but besides these defects, what do you need a USA warranty for (vs grey market)? Last time I purchased a digital camera, I tested it and the competition in store, but found the bargin online. I would like to do that again.
Also any suggestions on what Nikkor lenses should be avoided and why (some people complained about the kit ones)? I’m shooting for an overall budget max of $1200 so I think the 18-200mm VR is out.
And lastly, is a $200 price difference with the d40x worth going for it instead of the d80? Thanks
Please check http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Stop4Camera before completing your purchase.
The one thing we can GUARANTEE is that the day after you buy your D80, they will come out with a D80s. This is totally dependent upon YOUR purchase, though (at least that has been MY experience), so don’t bother waiting. If you want the D80 as it is now, buy it now. Today’s BEST camera will be tomorrows 98% as good camera. The D80 is already so good, that you probably won’t even know what they added to the new model.
I confess I’ve owned a D200 for a year and a half and they didn’t come out with a new model, so I’m happy about that.
Nikon DOES make "firmware" upgrades available on-line, which you download to your computer, put on your memory card and then upload to your camera, so don’t fear being left in the dust.
I can’t say what lens to avoid, but I can ease your fears about the kit lens. A couple of years ago, this was a problem for both Nikon and Canon, but they have addressed it by improving the quality of their kit lenses. You can safely buy the 18-55 or the 18-135, which costs about $230 more than the 18-55. The 18-135 will put you right up against your maximum budget, though.
As far as the D40X vs. the D80…
While the D40x is limited to AF-S lenses, this is not a real handicap if you don’t already own any Nikon lenses. Every lens Nikon makes will probably be AF-S or whatever they replace that with. (See http://www.members.aol.com/swf08302/nikonafs.txt for a list of AF-S lenses.) The D80 can use practically ALL Nikon lenses ever made with the "F" mount. The D80 has many more metering zones than the D40, so those two factors would make it a better purchase for you.

DSLR camera help: Canon, Sony, or Nikon??
Posted by admin | Under D80 Nikon 18 200mm Monday Aug 23, 2010which one should i get:
a) Canon 400D Digital Rebel XTi with 18-75mm lens
b) Sony alpha A100 with SAL 18200 18-200mm lens
c) NIkon D80 with 18-135mm lens
d) Nikon D80 with 28-105mm lens
The reason im putting only one lens down is because thats all i can afford at the moment. if u have any other suggestions for a lens to pair with one of the cameras, please tell. im going to italy, and want to be able to take landscape/architecture shots, nature shots, possibly close-up shots, and defintely people shots, AND low light places, like in museums w/o flash or at night or in a church, or more specifically the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. so, i know thats asking a lot, but please help. thx.
I have a D70, so I’m biased. The D80 is a great camera. I’d go with the 18-135 lens. Remember, that will roughly be equivalent to a 27-200 on a 35mm film camera.
A couple of suggestions:
1) If your subject is much brighter/darker than the rest of the scene, don’t use matrix metering. Use either spot or center-weighted & meter the subject.
2) In low light scenes, MANUALLY set the ASA to 400-800. Also, use a tripod or support.
Good luck!
