What digital camera do you use for taking pictures of your cars?
I have a Canon A620. I like it but I think it is time for a dSLR. | |

Just make sure you have some money for some decent lenses. The prices on L glass will make you look twice, thinking the comma is in the wrong place  | |

Anyone looking to get a dSLR I'd recommend either Canon or Nikon just because of a huge selection of lenses out there. Sure Olympus, Pentax and Konica Minolta have good dSLRs, but really can't compete with Canon or Nikon as far as selection of lenses, flashes, etc. | |

Also see how it does with nature shots here. | |

The D200 is a very nice camera, I'm sure you'll enjoy. Just make sure to get some quality Nikon glass now, your pictures are only as good as the lens your using. | |
