"Superb camera -- for high end users -- some flaws"

By bamfoto (cnet.com)

Bottom line: I love this camera even though ... 

Lightning fast over the D100 -- Superior viewing screen -- Auto-focus lenses snap with precision -- Nikon quality, feel and reliability --- good tech support -- good USA warranty -- great 12 mega pixel resolution - no film to buy -- Digital is Green!
