Well I had a D80 and have a D300 and D90, I would go for the either the new D90 or buy a used D90 if you want to save money. The D200 while a solid camera, is somewhat dated technology. The high ISO capability is much better on the D90.

BTW- wow prices are high there. A D200 in the New York area can be had for around $500 to $600.

yep uk/Ireland every time you buy something you get a nice free kick up the ass it's ridiculous to be honest, and the people including myself are so dumbed down and diluted we've lost the ability to stand up for ourselves, we just seem to take all the crap that gets thrown as us, petrol, fuel, food, consumer pricers absolute disgrace.

get a D90
