Nikon D80 anyone?

Wanting a DSLR cam for a long ass time now and I think i am about get myself in debt even more than i am already. So anyone have any experience with this camera yet. I know its new, just wondering though. I am a canon person but the dsl ones just don't feel right to me. The nikon does though. I know SOny has one too but kinda skeptical about theirs. Any help appreiated

its a great camera
used it all last year
the d200 is good too
and the dsx2 or wh atever it is is one of the best cameras out on the market

I went ahead and bought the D80. I looked at the D200 also. A little more expensive though. And the $1300 for the D80 was pushing my $$ limits. I took some inside photos as soon as my battery charged up. I will take some outside photos tomorrow and post some up here. So far, I am very pleased with the camera. Feels very nice and takes a damn good picture.. well, as good as it could be at night indoors

Post some samples.

There was a topic about cameras a while back. Most people talked about how a $300 camera and a $1,300 camera can pretty much take the same quality of photo.

I use a 4mp Kodiak camera I bought from Wal-Mart for my show coverage and it only cost me $300. If you use your settings right you can take high quality photos with a $300 camera and save a lot of money. I'm happy with my camera but wouldn't mind having a newer one. Mine is about 2 years old now, but still can't complain with how the photos turn out for such a cheap camera

Of course it all depends on what you want to shoot and what you plan on doing with your pictures too.

That is true to an extent.
My Cannon A620 and Rebel are very similar when used in the same conditions. Having removeable lenses/ better selection of filters help alot on the Rebel and produce much better results.

Properly editing can make or break a shot. Using Raw images only limits the quality, using a photo editor can enhance a photo alot more than most people think.

If you are doing normal prints or poster size prints the better quality really shows.

What do you usually change when you edit your photos? Like do you brighten them up, remove glare, things like that. 95% of the time I just put my logo on the photo and upload it, to much time to edit them all.

I wouldn't mind having different lens but I would need a better camera for that. Oh well

I change the light, contrast saturation, color, and clean up anything in the background as well as get rid of glares.

They usually look fine before I edit them, I like spending the extra time to see how much better they can look.

Here is a sample of a shot a few months old that I did...

Any samples yet?
