User Review for Nikon D80

« See all reviews

Perfect camera even for those just beginning their photography journey...

Mar 26, 2008

Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Excellent build, Easy to use, Ergnomic design, Top screen LCD, Large LCD rearscreen, Excellent image quality
Cons: Can't think of any!
Opinion:
I think enough has been said about this camera. I've had this for slightly over a year now. This was my first dSLR and it's been a great beginner camera as well.

Why did I choose this over the Canon 400D at that point in time? Both are great cameras, but the D80 just fit much better in my hand. I could never get a good grip on the 400D to be honest.

That reasoning might seem simple to some of you, but both cameras are great in their own right, and I don't think it would really have mattered that much to my photographs if I had picked either one.
