Strengths: Ergonomics are great, the LCD screen is fantastic, the user interface and menus are very intuitive to me. The combination of the camera and the 18-135 lens works for all my needs.
Weakness: Of course, compared to a point-and-shoot, it's bigger and bulkier. However, compared to my old Pentax SLR, it's still lighter and MUCH more versatile.
I went from a 15-year-old Pentax SLR to a Canon A85 point and shoot digital. The point-and-shoot was handy for carrying in a pocket but I really missed the quality and flexibility of an SLR. I tried the Canon and Sony equivalents and quickly settled on this camera when I got it in my hands. It just felt right and the menus and interface flowed the way I expected. On my Canon camera I was always...
Strengths: Easy to use, excellent picture quality. Great Battery life.
Weakness: A lot of camera for someone is brand new. 18-55mm lens is too small of a kit lens, opt for the 18-70mm or at least 18-135mm.
Great camera for Great price. Make anyone shoot like a pro. Very sensitive Camera and best used with a tripod for beginners. Aperture/ Priority Modes are easy to use and easy to set. A learning DVD needs to be standard for this semi-pro camera. Battery life is excellent and more superior than Canon. Standard SD memory is sufficient. No need to buy expensive SDHC cards.
Strengths: Quality construction yet light, fantastic ergonomics and image quality
Weakness: High ISO image noise not as impressive as Canon latest models
The D80 builds on the success of the D70, which is the consumer level DSLR that put Nikon on the map several years ago. This model is nearly as good as the much more expensive D200 which gives the Canon 5D a run for the money. The images from the D80 are nearly indistinguishable from the D200; it is only 3fps (vs. 5fps for the D200) but if you are not a sports shooter, 3 fps is more than...
Strengths: Excellent hand grip, solidly built; buttons and dials to control settings, going into menus is rarely needed! 10 megapixel; 2.5 inch LCD. Great walk around range for the kit lens.
Weakness: Expensive compared to competitors, but I think its worth it.
This is my first DSLR, but I've learned to use it in no time, having maybe only shot with the auto modes for a few photos and the other two hundred on aperture or shutter priority. The 18-135mm is sharp; I have not observed any chromatic abberation except on a sun back-lit shot of a spider web. Near 135mm I do see vignetting, where the corners of the image darken slightly -- however, I definitely...
Strengths: excellent image quality
Weakness: body is too delicate
After a great study I have purchased this wonderful camera. We have the world class resorts i.e.Pragati Resorts. I have taken a no.of images in our resorts and enlarged them into 40 feet X 30 feet for hoardings. Though exlarged to that extent the quality of the image did not deteriorate. I strongly recommend this camera
Strengths: -Images with high detail and low noise -Superior build quality and handling to rivals -Best viewfinder experience in its class Superb metering, flash and AF performance
Weakness: -Higher price than rival 10Mpixel DSLRs -No physical anti-dust feature -No anti-shake in standard kit RAW adjustment software not included
It is the best DSLR in its class. I researched Cannon XTi, Sony A100 and Olympus EVolt500 before I decided to buy D80. The picture quality is amazing. Here are more good points about it: -It is very fast -The top LCD helps to increase the battery life -11-point AF system is very helpful -Large viewfinder -The 18-135 range is excellent for a kit lens -The Silent Wave focusing motor is quiet, quick...
Strengths: Great pictures almost each and every time, great build, on board editing options w/o software, powers up in less than 1 sec so you don't miss a picture
Weakness: none so far
I waited many, many months to get this camera and it was well worth the wait! I had struggled with the decision to get a Canon or this Nikon and am so glad I got the D80 w/the 18mm-135mm lens kit. This is the most amazing camera. I have taken some amazing pictures in all modes and very rarely have I had problems. Practically every picture is amazing, with and without filters. Some vignetting but...
Strengths: Super fast! Blows my N75 out of the water! Amazing quality! Cool effects!
Weakness: None that I can find.
Where do I start? I've been looking at this camera for many months now and decided I was fed up with the 1-hour photo idiots who repeatedly get trash in my pictures/CD's and ruin my negatives. My memories are too precious!!! I have to admit it is pricey, but I won't have to buy another camera for years or maybe ever! It seems to be very user-friendly and I'm just tickled to death that I can...
Strengths: Pictures, functions, quality
Weakness: I'm used to a compact point and shot cameras and D80 is ofcourse much bigger and heavier.
super camera, why did I not bought it earlier. Very sharp pictures, great lins I have not tried the 18-200mm but the kit lins offers all zoom I need. I would have expect the built in flash to be a little stronger. I would recommend an external flash.
The replacement to the popular D70 and D70s cameras from Nikon. The D80 introduces new features that should make any enthusiast happy, for a price point that you can afford. A 10.2 resolution is the biggest change, alongside advanced image stabalization and post processing capabilities. ... PROS: (1) Fits any Nikon SLR Lens (2) Large feature set (3) Highly customizable (4) More weathertight and...

The Nikon D80 is an extremely interesting digital SLR camera and offers both amateur and hobby photographers lots of creative possibilities to be able to practise digital photography in all its aspects.

This fast and powerful SLR is significantly smaller than the D70s, and offers many features, including a status LCD.

Having now thoroughly tested a production sample of the Nikon D80, all our initial impressions have been confirmed, and we can give it our wholehearted endorsement. By any measure, the Nikon D80 is a superb photographic tool, offering value well beyond its relatively modest price point. It delivers a huge step up in virtually every parameter relative to the earlier D70/D70S, and even the D100...

The Nikon D80 is without a doubt a very impressive camera. It feels great, handles well, performs superbly and has one of the best viewfinders around. At times when rivals struggled with various lighting conditions, the D80’s metering remained unfazed and quite simply delivered great-looking images every time. The D80 may be a classier camera than its rivals in traditional respects, but has...
Top
The Nikon D80 is a fairly inexpensive digital SLR that packs spectacular performance and excellent (though somewhat soft) image quality into a well-built, solid camera. . For under $1000 you get quite a lot of camera, and it will certainly make people think twice about spending hundreds more on a D200. The D80 was a joy to use, and I'm certainly going to miss it when it goes back to Nikon. In...

Become a semi-pro instantly with the Nikon D80
Strengths: picture quality is fantastic, you can hardly make a bad photograph handling is very easy, even for me as a first time digital SLR owner
Weakness: camera is quite heavy
I bought the Nikon D80 eight months ago, and I must say it has changed the way we make photos. I compared the D80 with the Canon 400D extensively, conclusion is that both cameras have more or less same picture quality but that the Nikon has a much better build. After using the camera for quite some time now I have to agree and I am still very happy I decided to pay a bit more compared to the...
