Roger M Marty CIOS 258 Lesson 5

I currently use a Nikon D200 a camera that is descibed as the latest in cutting edge technology. A 10.2 megapixel SLR camera that can use not only the latest lenses but almost all of the Nikon line. It has an 11 point metering system, a magnesium alloy body and is dust and moisture resistant. Can shoot 5 frames per second and I have been able to use up to 16GB memory card allowing me to shoot in RAW mode and still take in excess of 900 photos.

2. Large range of custom settings.
3. Fast 5 FPS shooting.

Cons:
1. No TIFF file format
2. Auto white balance does not handle incandescent lighting well.
3. A fairly large, heavy camera.
