On par or better than the competition
Pros: Compact body, bright and large viewfinder, easy to use, decent low-light performance
Cons: Matrix Metering *different* than other Nikons like D70s or D200
BottomLine: D80 is probably the best offering Nikon has at the moment, dollar for dollar. D40 and D200 are next (below and above it). Matrix Metering and ISO1600 notwithstanding, great camera!

Great camera for novice and pro alike
Pros: Long battery life, fast auto zoom, clear pics with kit lens
Cons: Eventually, photo imaging software needed to get the most out of your pictures.
BottomLine: A good beginner camera for photographers or novices who aspire to be called such. High quality photos without too high of a price.
