"Nikon launches its powerful, feature-packed D200 digital SLR camera, delivering a high-precision, high-performance package and creating a new class of camera between entry-level and professional digital SLRs. The Nikon D200 combines the solid look and feel and advanced camera operation of Nikon’s D2 professional series with the approved user-friendliness and stunning image quality that are the hallmarks of all Nikon digital SLRs. The D200 has been crafted to connect a range of newly developed Nikon technologies with advanced features inherited from the Nikon D2x, ensuring an ultimate shooting experience with exceptional and versatile imaging performance, high speed and an instant response."



Nikon has announced the D200, a 10.2MP DSLR with professional features and build quality in a compact body. From a features and functionality point of view the D200 is much closer to the D2X than the D100. Some of the highlights are a magnesium-alloy body, an 11-area AF sensor, 3D Color Matrix Metering II, 5 frames per second continuous shooting, 2.5" LCD monitor, USB 2.0, 1/250 sec X-sync plus WiFi and GPS support. The last two features are perfect for a blogger, photo journalist or someone just traveling. The D200 is about 100g heavier than the D100 but 240g lighter than the D2X. The price is $1,849 in the US which is a good point for someone who doesn't want to drop $4-8K on a camera but it willing to pay more than $800, and of course want all the added features. Dpreview also now has a hands on preview.
