CANON EOS 20D KIT: Would you like the combo?

bytheuerkorn Apr 25, 2005
45 Helpfuls 46 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent camera, good starter lens, rich in features, good overall quality
Cons Mediocre lens which stifles some of the 20D functionality and quality
Recommended it? Yes

Kits are often a great opportunity to snatch typically more expensive individual components and bundle them into a discounted package. The same is true for the EOS 20D which can be had with or without the lens. Does it make sense to get the kit or simply skip to the body only and get a better lens?... Read full review »

Pros Professional features and images, robust, pro build quality.
Cons Initial cost to purchase.
Recommended it? Yes

The Nikon D200 digital SLR is Nikon's first 10.2 MP camera and while it offers a little less resolution than Nikon's current flagship, the D2Xs, it provides users with professional level features and images at a less than full scale professional price.

Like most people here I wrote a a glowing review when I had first purchased the D200. This can be a poor time to write because people can be hypnotized by an expensive new toy.

Over a period of six months I have changed my opinion about this camera.There are problems with this camera and... Read full review »
