Amazing camera I bought this camera about a year ago and its still amazing. It is perfect for me as im doing a photography degree and gives me all the control i need, but its not over complicated. My friend recently bought a D200 an he's very happy with it but feels its just an over complicated D80. So if you are trying to decide between the two, i would suggest the D80.

If, like me, you're somewhere in between you'll go for the 18-135 kit. With a lens... more info
Versatile Performer I have always been a Nikon fan having owned two previous film Nikon SLRs. I've had my digital D80 for about a year and a half and it has revolutionised and reinvigorated my hobby. Its main strengths is its ability to shoot in RAW format and apply corrections through software and then undo them if necessary without affecting the original image. At 10 megapixels it will allow sizable enlargements to be made that are pin sharp. I've done travel photography, architecture, indoor, nature, night and motor sport... more info
