Nikon D80 SLR Digital Camera

Originally introduced onto the market in September 2006 to replace the bulkier D70, the Nikon D80 SLR Digital Camera caused quite a stir amongst a lot of Nikon users..

Simply put, the Nikon D80 SLR Digital Camera was not just an upgrade from any of its predecessors, but a complete revolution in digital cameras!

For the first time in its history, Nikon had developed a camera whose combined parts embraced only those features that were considered the very best in the past models!

To say that the Nikon D80 SLR Digital Camera is a great camera is an understatement; a fact shared by most Nikon enthusiasts, from armature photographers looking for a compelling choice to purchase a SLR Digital camera, right through seasoned professionals who make a living through photography!

Nikon D80 SLR Digital Camera – Features

On close inspection, you immediately notice that the Nikon D80 SLR Digital Camera spots a 10.2-megapixel CCD image sensor optimized to capture sharp details; RAW and JPEG capture to be precise, with a burst mode  that allows for capture of three frames per second for up to 100 pictures!

If you’re not familiar with RAW format capture, it’s an option on your SLR Camera that allows for the capture of images in RAW as it gives you so much more options of processing the photo afterwards. In short, Raw image files have a wider dynamic range  or color gamut than your ordinary JPG images, whose resolution is usually limited by the size of the image saved on your memory card.

So you have more options to play with in the final development of your images.

Other Wow features include a High resolution processing engine from the Nikon D2X, the Nikon D200’s Multi CAM 1000 AF sensor module and a conspicuously large 2.5 inch rear LCD display with built-in slideshow options which can be viewed at a much wider angle, clearly redefine how one captures footage with or without a tripodon the fly.

The challenges of digital photography usually include memory capacity, especially when capturing large resolution images, which can take up much of your memory just before capturing your widowed Father-in-law’s most embarrassing moment as he trips over the wedding cake in his bid to capture the bouquet long before the wedding’s over!

Now that’s a theme of the past and digital photography’s been taken to a whole new level when Nikon re-designed the Nikon D80 SLR Digital Camera to support the new generation of Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) memory cards, which have capacities of up to 32GB!

With an exclusive hallmark of consistently dependable exposure, Nikon loaded the D80 with an advanced exposure evaluation system inherited from the Nikon D2Xs and D200 digital SLR cameras.

In a nutshell, common features such as brightness, color, contrast and camera-to-subject distance information are evaluated and referenced against Nikon’s expansive on board database of exposure data from well over 30,000 actual photographic scenes, with the final exposure value calculated – instantly!

Those who understand how difficult it can be to maximize available light to help achieve optimal exposure will instantly fall in love with the Nikon D80 SLR Digital Camera, which comes standard with ISO speeds of 100 and 1600 in 1/3-EV increments; a huge confidence booster for anyone who understands High ISO shooting!
