Title of review big LCD
What are the strengths? A 2.5 inch high resolution LCD screen provides an ultra-wide 170° viewing angle from all directions. Images on the D200 can be magnified by up to 400% so users can check for fine detail, adding to the rich and varied experience.The top LCD panel is the largest in the industry. A new colour-coded menu display facilitates easy viewing, supported by intuitive keywords to assist speedy navigation.
What are the weaknesses? it is a bit bulky anbd a little heavy.
Summary 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.New image optimization modes enable photographers to produce results more closely matching the intended results.

Title of review Good Digi Cam
What are the strengths? It takes great pics. It has a brilliant shutter speed. It is a 10.2 megapixel camera. It has long lasting batteries. It also has a 2.5 inch LCD display.
What are the weaknesses? It is big and bumpy. Also very heavy to carry around all the time.
Summary Nikon has always come out with great camera. This camera in particular has its share of pluses and minuses. Firstly, i am glad with the picture quality. It has long lasting batteries, so that isnt much of a problem. It shutter speed is of excellent quality. On the other hand, one would expect more than just a 1 x optical zoom from this camera. Also, it is quite heavy and big to carry around all the time. This restricts the opportunity of taking unexpected pictures. But overall, this is a pretty good camera.

Title of review nikon has done it this time!!!
What are the strengths? The colors jump out at you as they are vibrant. The 10mp images allow for cropping when necessary and you can still print large. The b&w mode is great. it is brillant in every way possible.
What are the weaknesses? it needs big CF cards, get 2gb or 4gb CF cards as you will not want to stop shooting this gem.
Summary i was shocked at the low price. This is in many ways the best camera I have ever owned. The interface is intuitive and really is beyond compare in my experience. Every adjustment is right there at your finger tips making it fast and easy to change settings as different lighting and situations present themselves. This camera fits my hands like a glove.

Title of review Brilliant Digital SLR
What are the strengths? First and foremost the shutter speed is far superior to any other such product available in market. 10.2 mp feature is an asset that goes without saying. Good battery life helps too.
What are the weaknesses? Body is bulky and heavy to carry around. It could have done better with more than just 1x optical and digital zoom.
Summary Considering it’s a digital SLR no one expects it to have feature like video recording and it easily is better for still photography over other digital cams. It’s not made or priced for amateurs and rookies. Professionals run for it before its stocks are over
