I am ‘the passionate newcomer’ with own fresh, bold, contemporary style of work and ardent approach to photography. My journey started way back in 2000 when I fell in love with photography. That was my college time when I’m further my study at Newcastle Upon Tyne. To be specific at University of Sunderland, about 40 miles from Newcastle city centre. Being passionate with gorgeous atmosphere especially during night time, I’ve wonder why I’m start to collect photos. Thus, this makes me tried by hard to learn more and more bout photography. Start from now onwards I will try to put my best effort sharing my views and nice shots to viewers. Have a great time…..
My Current Gadget is Nikon D200;
Nikon D200 Review, February 2006, Phil Askey
Review based on a production Nikon D200
The Nikon D200 was announced on 1st November 2005, some three and a half years since Nikon revealed their first prosumer digital SLR, the D100. It's fair to say however that the D200 is a completely different beast altogether, it shares far more with its 'bigger brother' the the D2X than its earlier namesake. The D200 has the robust build quality of the D2X, a 10.2 million pixel CCD sensor and a compact design more like the D100. Just as the D100 the D200 has a CCD sensor, unlike the D2X which utilized a CMOS sensor. It's clear that this camera is aimed at the same kind of market as the recently announced Canon EOS 5D. From a features, control and performance point of view the D200 is closer to the D2X than any other model.
Compared to the Nikon D100, major feature and specification differences
Three years is a long time in the digital photography industry, a lot has changed since the D100, so treat the table below as a summary of the major changes. The most immediately noticeable however is the build quality, the D200 feels like a professional tool.
