I currently have a Nikon D40, which I am happy with, but I already realize that it is entry level and I plan on getting a better one and passing the D40 to the wife. We are going to have some extra money real soon and I'm looking between 1500-2000 I can put into a new camera and/or accessories. As I am happy with the Nikons I have read about i am sold on them, there is no debateing here, I respect cannons and all, but I'm sold on Nikon, anyway. the question is do want to shell out and get a D200, which looks a little overkill in some areas, and little expensive in comparison to the D80, wich isn't lacking anything I can't live without. Is there another option I'm not thinking about with the Nikons? If I get the 80 I can afford another lens also. If I buy the 200 I may be tapped out to sharing the two lenses I have for the D40 now.
This is what I know. The D80 Takes SD, I have several 2G already. The 200 takes CF teh biggest I already have is 512K. The D80 takes the wireless remote, I have that. The 200 takes a cable(someone said 100 bucks.) The D80 is lighter, the D80 gets more pictures per battery life(How they have the same battery) Other then that the 200 has wireless transfer, and a couple of options I'm not sure I'd use. Any input, advice or comments or possible flaws in my thinking are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
