Nikon D80

review DATE:10.09.06

Nikon D80
Angle Front 2.5-inch LCD screen

review

By Terry Sullivan

With four advanced 10-megapixel cameras introduced from Canon, Nikon, Pentax, and Sony (five, if you count Samsung's rebranded model) in the last ten months and two more from Fuji and Sigma that may arrive before the end of the year, 2006 has turned into the year of the D-SLR. Among all of them, the Nikon D80 has been the most eagerly anticipated. It doesn't disappoint.
