In this "information age", just too much to digest... might I suggest... to just buy.

Anyway :thumbsup:

If you really like the camera...without reading the review you still will get it..

 

[shutterbug]

for jap fans, detailed review in japanese with many full size sample images for download.

http://journal.mycom.co.jp/articles/2006/08/14/d80/

it roughly says

-higher resolution than a100
-better high ISO noise than D200 :sweat:
-default jpg image possibly better than D200
