    D3000 or D200 ?

    i have never used a d3000 so not sure but im sure someone will be around soon to tell you perhaps check on the specs of both cameras and weigh up which features of the d3000 you cant live with and see if they are on the d200 ....perhaps if you can stretch to it a d300 may not be such a large...

    D90 and D2X as second camera?

    well done that is a good price for what you have ....im sure you are very happy with it ......... if it has not already been done get the latest firmware and you almost have a d2xs bearing in mind that it is an older camera you will still find it produces great results and it wouldnt...
