Nikon D3

Advantages: small and light
Disadvantages: none

...'t allow me to use the aperture ring on my old lenses. It's not a big problem as the aperture is now set using a very useful finger-wheel which seems to have become the new standard for all SLRs. The old lenses work very well with the D80 body. I just need to remember to lock the aperture ring to minimum aperture setting. Also of course the sensor is smaller than a 35mm slide, so wide angle lenses are a bit less wide-angle than they would have been on a film camera and telephoto lenses a bit more telephoto, but that too appears to be the new standard except for very expensive professional cameras such as the Nikon D3. As for the photographic results, I certainly can't complain. The metering and focusing are excellent and colours appear very vibrant and images very sharp. Overall this is a very good mid-priced DSLR sitting between... Read review

...This little device is brilliant! It opens up so many more doors for photographers. It allows the photographer to take pictures from range with no wires trailing whatsoever and from a range of around 5 - 10 metres at least in my experience. It is compatible with the D80, D50, D70, N65, N75, and F65 (http://www.slrtoday.com/articles/148/1/Going-Wireless-with-the-Nikon-ML-L3 -Wireless-Remote-Control/Nikon-ML-L3-Wireless-Remote-Control.html) and is incredibly simple to use. On my Nikon D50, all i have to do is hold one button and swivel the dial a couple clicks and there, all set up. This allows the photographer to take photos of close up wildlife from a distance (so that they arent scared by some big human). It is also handy when it comes to astronomical photography. When the remote mode has been activated and the shutter speed turned... Read review

Advantages: Long battery life giving over 900 pics per charge
Disadvantages: quite heavy but no other faults found

...I purchased an S3 DSLR having owned a 6800 for some time. It accepts all the popular Nikon D type lenses as well as other makes. It features a dual sensor for even sharper better tone pictures. It also accepts the latest Nikon Zoom flashguns. Unlike previous (S1 and S2 camera's, the S3 only requires a single set of 4 AA batteries. I use NiMh 24 - mn and on a full charge you will be able to take an average of 900 - 1000 pictures including limited reviewing. All the usual features are present in a camera of this price. This would not disgrace any professional photographers kit and although there are cheaper DSLR's finding one to match the picture quality of the s3 would be difficult. I use it mainly for action event photographt but it is actually better suited to portrait and panoramic photography. for me, having already owned both... Read review

Advantages: Best Feature in Great Price
Disadvantages: None

...The D80 is another superb camera in Nikon's impressive DSLR range. It is extremely well made, incredibly versatile and capable of fantastic picture quality. The Nikon D80 is an enthusiast's dream and is incredibly rewarding to use. I had always a dream of buying Nikon D200 but with the release of D80 in much more economical price and the features somehow same to the D200, I was impressed. It has a new and improved 10.2-megapixel image sensor. It is an interesting mix of point-and-shoot and serious camera, Nikon's D80 has been touted as a 'little sister' to the D200 model and offers many of the same features and the 'quality' feel users have come to expect from Nikon DSLRs. This is a highly recommended camera that can outrun every other DSLR camera in the market.... Read review
