Nikon has produced another winner with the Nikon D80, reinforcing the strength of its DSLR line-up. The D80 is a worthy successor to the incredibly popular D70. If you are keen to progress your photography with a DSLR, or even want to produce better-quality images than you could with your previous Nikon, the D80 offers a cheaper alternative to the D200.
