Key Advantages

The D200 stands out with its durable build quality designed to withstand rigorous usage. The 10.2 MP sensor offers excellent image detail and color rendition. Its robust autofocus system enables quick and precise focusing in varied shooting scenarios. The camera supports a variety of file formats including RAW and JPEG for flexible post-processing. It features a bright optical viewfinder with 95% frame coverage. The device offers a fast continuous shooting speed of up to 5 frames per second, suitable for action photography.

Limitations

Released in 2005, the D200 lacks video recording capabilities found in later models. The rear LCD screen is fixed and relatively small by modern standards, at 2.5 inches with 230k dots resolution. Its ISO range is limited compared to more recent DSLRs, potentially affecting low-light performance. The camera uses CompactFlash cards, which are less common today, making storage less convenient. Battery life, while decent, doesn't match the endurance of newer batteries and may require spares for extended shoots. Additionally, the overall weight and bulk are heavier compared to modern compact DSLRs or mirrorless cameras.
