Anyone planning to get one?

I would, but I've already got a D70. I'd like to see some reviews come o ut of it.

I will be trying to purchase one in September. My first digital SLR. I have a lot of Nikon AF lenses, and I've been waiting for a body spec'd about like this one, and the price fits me.

I have an opps to try it and it feel really nice, but I already have a Nikon D50 which I am very happy with at the moment.

Maybe down the road, I will consider the D80 or the D200... I rather wait for one with image stability feature.

I have a D80 and its amazing

I am also in the market for Nikon D80 Digital Camera. I have been reading expert reviews and that has been useful to me. It may be help you too. I had been using PCWorld.com, cnet.com to find reviews. Yesterday I used PriceGrabber's expert review tab (http://www.pricegrabber.com/info_expertrev...sterid=23760802) and found a site (www.smartratings.com) that aggregates expert reviews. It only covers a few categories but it is pretty neat. Just my $.02.

If you're after reviews try here.

The D80 is nice, when I bought my Canon Rebel XTi, the D80 was my other choice. However I found that the extra $400 or so didn't offer much. I also have used Canon Products alot and have some trust in them.

I've had one since about mid-November last year... The reason I got it is because of the nice 10.1 mega pixels and it's ability to take some of my older Nikkor lenses. It is definitely a good buy for someone that wants something better then the D50 or 70. The interface has been upgraded and is easier to use, but still as flexible for your needs. Another plus is the larger screen. A feature that I use for every shot is RAW. Overall this camera is good for the more advanced consumer. If you want something more advanced/professional go with the D200.

A good photographer can take an amazing shot with any kind of camera whether it be a million dollar camera or a crappy disposable.
