It's strange having the distinction of being the first to review this particular camera on this site. I usually don't consider myself to be a leading-edge sort of guy, but I really got tired of dealing with my film cameras and slow point-and-shoot...
Pros: Feature rich, lens interchangeability, 6 megapixel resolution
Cons: Cons: see a few concerns below

Pros: Instantaneous response Cons: Few image stabilizing lenses available
My much-loved Canon EOS D30 got stolen, so it was once again time to research digital SLRs. Fortunately, this was just on time for the introduction of the Nikon D100, so I wandered down to Samy's Camera in Hollywood to test out both units. This is a...
Pros: Good pictures, rugged construction, Nikon lenses. Cons: Jpeg quality, must use Capture3 software to work with RAW files, C3 is unacceptable.
I took a number of pictures using all formats and decided with this camera RAW is the only way to go because of the widely reviewed "softness" of its jpeg output. However, you have to install Capture 3 software to work with the RAW files - which are in a...

Pros: great images, decent price, will use Nikon glass Cons: N80 body, USB,
There are some good reviews of the D100 on epinions. Howard Creechs is very comprehensive, for example. Rather than rehashing a perfectly fine review, Ill try to approach this review from the perspective of a F100 or F5 owner. Which is, in my...
Pros: Nikon quality, all Nikon lenses will work.
Image quality very good. Cons: Doesn't come with a lens, or any compact flash. Demo software 30 day trial.
The Nikon D100 has lived up to gadgetman's expectations. I read plenty of reviews on dpreview.com, so you might want to look there too. I really like the feel of the camera, but it improved even more when I added the optional portrait grip that costs...
Pros: Pictures, Product construction, Battery life Cons: Software, Support

As a digital imaging professional, I held off purchasing a digital SLR until the price-performance hit a satisfactory level. The introduction of the Nikon...
Pros: Professional, wonderful Nikon lens and Nikon accessories Cons: Underexposes
