so i was thinking about getting a Nikon d200 is it worth it?
To do what?
>>200426Most likely take pictures with. How stupid is /p/?You might want to save up for the D300.
get the leica
D200s are beasts. They're cheap as fuck now, too. But the D300 is really where it's at. You'll be shelling out much more for that though.
D300. Much much better
Why is the D300 so much better than the D200?Can you really notice the differences if you're just a hobby photographer?
>>200491The D*00 series is not for plain hobbyists. It's for serious photographers. Most would actually be happy with the D40 though that's in the "massive point and shoot" level so you might as well get a D80.
If you aren't making money off of your photographs, I'd just go with the entry level dSLRs. Not really any point to purchasing an outdated model either.
APPARENTLY THE D90 IS GOING TO BE RELEASED/ ANNOUNCED SOON.
>>200516This is true. Unless you are upgrading, getting a more professional SLR won't benefit you. Get some nice lenses if you are looking to blow some cash.
