Key Advantages

The Nikon D200 offers a high-resolution 10.2 MP sensor, capturing detailed and sharp images. Its durable magnesium alloy construction ensures reliability in demanding shooting scenarios. The camera's advanced 51-point autofocus system provides precise focusing accuracy. It supports versatile exposure controls and fast shutter speeds up to 1/8000 sec, suitable for action photography. The ISO range flexibility allows for quality imaging under various lighting conditions. Additionally, the inclusion of two memory card slots enhances storage capacity and workflow efficiency.

Limitations

Despite its strong feature set, the Nikon D200 has a relatively modest 2.5-inch LCD screen compared to modern standards. It lacks video recording capabilities, limiting multimedia functionality. The ISO sensitivity, although expandable to 3200, does not match newer models' high ISO ranges and noise management. Its autofocus system, while advanced for its time, is slower in continuous modes compared to recent cameras. The camera's weight and size might be considered bulky by some users preferring compact models. Firmware updates and compatibility with newer accessories are limited due to its age.
