- Battery life is excellent - I hav used camera for two weeks with flash photos and battery is only at 1/2.- Flash photos are very good color and image.- Flash adjusts very well to almost all

The 11 focus areas are a great help to accurately focus, color is excellent

When we shoot side by side, my photos come out way better, more detailed all the way out to the corners - crisp and focused - and with much better color saturation

Overall, colors are marvelous and you'll get amazing results once you'll learn how to master the camera

The nikon d80 is several steps above entry level DSLR that gives me the ability to take shots that I just could not get from my point & Shoot camera and guess what it accomplished that and more with photos that are extremely detailed and color rich

At 1/500 flash sync is slower on the D80 but unless you know what that is don't worry about it, even then its no big deal

It takes a great deal of familiarity with the camera to be able to answer your questions using the manual

Buying on Amazon was the best deal and faultless delivery.

This camera has stood the test of time, and although it lacks some of the features that newer ones have these days, if you can pick one up for a great deal, I highly recommend doing so

I got a great deal for the same price at Cameraland in New Hampshire for the D80 and the (D70s) 18-70mm tried and trusted lens

The many exposure modes give you flexibility and fine control.

ISO noise is controlled by Nikon in a different manner than Cannon, and wich method you will like better will depend on you

It does take wonderful pictures, and the features are amazing, giving you great control with some study and experimentation.

The Auto-focus system is one of the most intelligent I have ever used, yet you have extremely fine control over it.

I will not buy a body or flash that will not support it!There are so many other options and capabilities with the flash, such as multiple flashes during a single exposure, that really give you tremendous creative control

It gives me the image quality and creative freedom I want

Overall, this is an excellent camera and don't get fooled by reviews that point to poor image quality

Almost all cases of poor image quality come from improper use and not enough testing of this camera capabilities

The aperture is of average size, so don't expect images to jump out like large aperture lenses, but quality is good throughout the range

Beautiful image quality and good in camera picture adjustments such as crop DLighting and more.

All in all, I am very pleased with my purchase, and would recommend the D80 to anyone.

Other than that the D80 is Fantastic and I am thoroughly pleased with it

I purchased the D80 as an upgrade when the prices fell.

The D80 is highly recommended as the perfect camera for the advanced amateur or enthusiast photographer

The D80 blows it away, and for it's price there is nothing out there better

Reason for replacing, picture quality and speed of shooting, with the Olympus would have to wait a bit between shooting pictures, sometime missing the photo you wanted to take, not the case with this camera.

I have missed so many photos in the past due to shutter lag, but that is not a problem with this camera.

However, this D80 exceeds the D50 in manyways and takes great photos

The D40 took great photos, but it was too frustrating to use

While just about any point and shoot, today, has many of the functions necessary to take great photos (shutter settings, aperture settings, ISO settings, flash adjustment, exposure control, etc...), THIS camera has them at your

and I would highly recommend this camera to anyone who wants consistently great results with relative ease of use.

Overall, colors are marvelous and you'll get amazing results once you'll learn how to master the camera

Overall I am delighted with the camera and the results are amazing

First of all, if you consider into buying this model, you should know that this is not a dSLR that you can use on auto settings and get fabulous results

The camera is very easy to use and gives great results.

Auto focus a little slow, Kit lens to "slow" to allow you to make a photograph in your kitchen without camera movement, or use of a flash

the vr lens I got is great and the camera works great with my other nikkor lenses

Got it back, and I was happy enough, until 200 or 300 photos later, in early February, the lens broke again, same problem.

The autofocusing on the camera is staggeringly fast when coupled with the right lens

D80 is an excellent camera and the 18-135 lens is also good to an extent

These shots are amazing!!With all the great features and Multiple Exposure too, that alone would cause me to buy this camera

It does take wonderful pictures, and the features are amazing, giving you great control with some study and experimentation.

I have really enjoyed the extra features that the D80 provides.

I considered the D200, but liked that the D80 shares the most critical features and core imaging system with the

While not a totally bad thing, the D40 lacked this feature

and I settled on this one which I got for a great price

If you can find a used one at a good price I'd highly recommend this camera

2-it was checked out and approved for sale 3-the price was about $100 or so less expensive than the new ones

So, I found a factory demo from CAMETA Camera for a good price.

Cons: price (still near impossible to find one of these for a steal), weight (it feels solid and well constructed, but you pay for that with the weight

This is great for low light, and considering how great the D80 performs in low light anyways with its built in Noise Reduction and wonderful ISO quality, even at 1600

They're very good optically, but the build quality is lacking for my personal tastes.)

The camera feels better than my old D-70 and the quality in the photos is better

It's a camera you won't easily grow out of, is simple to use, and provides excellent image quality.

SLR flexibility, sharp lens, and wonderful image quality are what you can expect.

The only challenge I am facing is with getting the expensive 105mm f/2.8 VR lens, as the cheaper AI-S lenses do not meter with

I decided on this camera over the D40 and the Rebel XTi due to the fact it takes great shots right out of the box.

My wife can shoot auto mode and get great shots, I can shoot in customized / priority or manual modes and get the action shots I want.

These shots are amazing!!With all the great features and Multiple Exposure too, that alone would cause me to buy this camera

I have been amazed at how easy to use the D80 is, while also creating unbelievably clear and crisp shots.
