The Nikon SLR Digital Camera: The Best Over $1000

Nobody likes to be limited by a budget, especially penny-pinchers like me. But hey, that's a story for a later discussion. Let's stick to talking exclusively about digital cameras here, and more importantly Nikon digital SLR cameras. It's no secret, that Nikon creates many of the best digital SLRs out there, and there are plenty to choose from.

For such a discussion, we're staying away from beginner entry level SLR models, and focusing on those cameras that allure to individuals with more photography skill, or simply a bigger budget that compensates for a lack of skill. I do not really fit into either of these categories at the moment, but hey, things are changing.

Lets start by dealing delving into the Nikon D90. A camera which just beats the $1,000 entry barrier, but comes amongst a generous 12.3 megapixels. Now I know you may have read other discussions in the past about how megapixels truly don't matter, but that runs best for consumers who don't own many cameras. The D90 comes with other nice appealing features like dust control, updated live view (all you purists out there just need to get over it), and outstanding detection abilities

For the more advanced photographer (not the same as the guy with the larger wallet), you will need to look at the D200. If your seeking out speed from a camera, this baby's got it. By speed, I'm talking about a fast and versatile shutter speed, and the ability to take rapid fire pictures one right after the other. It's been available for a while, since 2005, which explains why it's at only 10 megapixels, but it is also a testament to how good a camera it really is. To still be a viable model, nearly four years after the initial launch.
