- Do you want to get more knowledge about photography beyond using smart phones but don't want to spend lots of money to get started. Maybe the Nikon D200 and a manual 50mm lens is the way to go.
In this video I compare the results you can get with the Nikon D200 compared to more modern cameras 10 times higher in price, like the Nikon D500.

My focus is photography street, nature, landscape, people and adventure travel. A few animals also sneak in from time to time. Property investment and business also get covered to complement the theme of having time and money to pursue your passions, like mine, in photography and adventure travel, 4WD, motorcycle and trekking/hiking, connecting with nature and culture.
I have in my collection are Nikon bodies D2h, D2hs, D2xs, D3, D200, D700, D800, D800e. I love them all, but have to agree that all you need to create great photos is a D200, a good lens and some shooting discipline. The newer bodies are better at higher ISOs for sure, but little else is gained that can't be corrected with basis editing skills.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts. Good collection of Nikons.
The CCD sensor in the D200 has it's own film character. It can't be compared side by side with the CMOS D500.
True, nevertheless, the D200 does a great job for the money.
Bought an immaculate low shutter count D200 for £80 to add to my collection. Great camera and undervalued, yes for sports and action shots I love my D500 and it's hard to beat but it costs 10 times the money and it's not 10 times better than the D200
Thanks for sharing
I love the D200. Many years ago, I could not afford it. I was dreaming about a D200, but the price was just too much for me. Now, they can be had here locally for
👍
I have to say , seeing them side by side , I honestly ( IMO ) prefer the venerable " D200 . " ! Richer colors , more indefinable " character " in the images .
👍
I decided to purchase a D200 about 6 months ago after not owning one for about 15 years. It’s in superb condition and yes that ccd sensor delivers color not unlike color film. We raved about it back then so what is so wrong with it now? Also a D7000 can be had for under $200 and it does not feel dated to me at all. Solid build, dual card slots and a dynamic range not far off the D500.
😀👏
I just bought a d200. I can't wait for it to arrive and start shooting
Fantastic
What lens did you go with?
I had a D90 which also was a great camera but wasn’t so good with manual focus lenses. I think the D300 is better for a small increase in cost. Also if you look at the D500 the cost of one XQD or CFexpress card for the D500 can cost more than any of these old cameras on their own as well! 🤘😁📷👍
Thanks for sharing
When I was starting with a DSLR all I could afford was a D200...Previously I used a Nikon F with a Photomic head and a Canon F-1...I have had the D200 for years now and have never seen the need to upgrade (I am not a professional but have sold a couple of photos to newspapers and magazines)...I have a small selection of lenses, Nikon and Sigma, I really like my D200 and will stick with it...Although if I can get a D300 for a good price it would be nice to have video for some situations...Great video...
Fantastic. Glad you are getting great results. I can recommend the D500 also if your budget permits
The Nikon D200 did a really good job. If my gear got stolen I just buy cheap gear to get started up again and then buy what I really need again. But its best to have insurance on your gear.
Yes, there is a lot of choice in the used gear market. Glad you liked the video.
Excellent comparison. The D200 still has an anti alias filter and another type of sensor. Colours are better. But as said printed on paper the D200 will in good light give better results because of the better colours.
Thanks for sharing
how can you miss the focus on a distant shot like that of the buildings? If the lenses were both set at infinity, then the images should be in focus unless the lens itself is not properly calibrated for infinity..
Human error maybe.
Nice video. I still have my D60 and D80.
👍
I'd immediately buy a DX camera with manual focussing and split image view finder. You just NEVER know where the AF is focussing on. Is it a small twig between you and the subject?
I mainly use a D7100 (24 MP sensor) in N mode where the camera downsamples to 13 MP. I did some tests with L mode (24 MP) but the differences were negligible. Not worth the double file size.
And when you print the images, on paper, you see that most of the things you seem to see on a flatscreen display are not visible anymore.
👍
I put k3 screens in my d1x and d100 back when I got them, very handy
Just starting to get into dslrs. I picked ip the d200 and d300s. However I believe the d200 with that ccd produces a unique image
Well done. Now start collecting lenses. Have fun.
Get started? I've been using the D200 professionally for 15 years.
Fantastic
Thanks for sharing your experience with great results....I currently have the D7100 & D500 so I find comparisons very interesting....I am only a hobbyist & just love taking pics of whatever interests me.... maybe I should have just upgraded my glass instead of the camera although my D500 is amazing....I also still have my D70s which I love using from time to time...
Cheers..😀
Thanks for sharing
Ja would be nice to have the manual focusscreens to use for those manual focuslenses on the digital equipment there is a focushelp sort of in other cameras
👍
It would be interesting how the D200 would look like against one of the latest cheap DX camera bodies like the D3500, which sells used for around 300 Euro (if you have good look with the very modern kit lens).
Good question. I have had one of the D3XXX cameras. From memory, 24MP. Outstanding camera. It was smaller in shape compared to the D200. Also a great camera as a starter in photography.
Better
bryan cranston is that you?
I had to look up Wikipedia to find out who is Bryan Cranston. Similar age and possibly similar looks maybe. Successful in the media and entertainment world. Thanks for watching.
Great video thanks. Could you do it again using the same lens on both bodies 😉 Just found your channel 👍
Thanks for watching. I gave the D200 to a friend. Oh hum.
D200 has ccd sensor in it. Great rendering and color at 100-800 iso in good light. Poor in low light situations.
Flash works very well with D 200.
I own D 200 and used for 10 years and thousands of family vacation images.
👍
Best camera.
which of?)
D200
D500
Thanks!!
Welcome!
What about sharpness gain using software like DxO PureRAW on older and smaller RAW files? Thank you
I rarely sharpen shots. No doubt AI can do a lot these days to improve photos lacking detail.
I recently sold my D7200 with some G lenses to concentrate more on photography instead of technology. Now I use old mirrorless for portability and my beloved first camera D60 with manual lenses like 60mm micro and a 200mm AI is arriving. In search of a good D200 or maybe D80, lighter. Nikon is Nikon. What about? Thank you.
Paid less than half that amount for mine
Well done.
Why on Earth would you INCREASE the sizes of these pics for comparison instead of decreasing the D500 output to match the D200 resolution...?!
I suspect the end result would be the same.
You forgot to mentio the D200 has CCD sensor.
Thanks for noting that.
I have a D3500 very good IQ, not very practical for fast action with just 11 focus points.
Just ordered a D40 almost the same CCD sensor as the D200, just for fun to see what the fuss is all about!
PS Walter White is this you?? 😅
Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@Adventure8 update: got the d40 and while it lacks detail, dynamic range and mp, the colors are magic!
