D200 vs 30D [Archive]
Pics from 30D looked better (even at ISO800) in colors/contrast and looked more real than D200.... The Canon 30D is lighter than the D200 which is really nice if you are going to be carrying it around all day ( if you don't add battery packs or heavy lenses)....

Luminous Landscape Forum > 30D vs D200
Today, the difference in cost between the 5D and the D200 is barely more than the difference in cost between the D200 and the Canon 30D.... And would the cost cutting in this "lesser" version include a frame rate even slower than 3fps while the 30D and D200 do 5fps?...

30D vs D200? Canon lose...I think
And if one mainly shoots wildlife and/or in low light conditions, I think the 30D is a better choice than the D200.... The D200 looks like a nice cam, but does it compare to the 20D/30D when it comes to noise levels at high ISOs?...

30D vs 5D vs D200 [Archive]
I've been swinging back and forth between the 30D and the D200.... Right now high ISO image quality is the only thing Canon has over Nikon, yet the D200 blows away the 30D and 5D in features on paper....

My impressions 30D vs 5D vs Nik D200 [Archive]
As far as image quality those, my 30D was way better with noise than his D200.... I really like the 30D it will be a nice improvement to my kit, but a body with a few more custom functions for tweaking like the D200 would be very welcome....

> 30D vs D200
Were I to start afresh and had to chose between the 30D and the D200, I would go for the latter.... However the 30D is quite a bit cheaper and is certainly in the same class as the D200....

D200 vs. 30D
I have a D200, but when it comes to the "High ISO vs Noise" ratio, then I think the Canon 30D is the better camera.... So, we don't think Nikon has in the D200 a camera that's a clear winner over the upcoming 30D by any means....

30D vs D200 ? [Page 1]
Most Canonites naturally assumed the 30D would be Canon's answer to the D200 (myself included).... I don't think that the D200 poses much threat to the canon empire, in fact i seriously doubt that it will dent the 30D's sales much at all....

D200 vs 30D
That being said, although I like the pro features of the D200, the image quality of the 20D/30D would win me over.... Apparently dPreview prefers the D200 over the 20D/30D, except for the high ISO noise and banding issues....

> 30D vs D200
Honestly you cant go wrong with either the Nikon D200 or canon 30D.... This 5D is barely bigger than a 30D, not heavy by any standards....
