Hmm,
I was looking for a D100, or a D70s as a lightweight do it all backup to the D2X's and the D1X, which can get a bit heavy after a days toting, but when looking at what is available reasonably cheaply, I've decided to go for either the D80 or D200.
Has anybody owned both of these cameras?? Is anybody able to dispassionately discuss the pro's and con's of either??
It seems to me that whilst different, there is little to choose between the two. The D100 has a better body, whilst I think the D80 has a better feature set, though I'm not convinced that I need all the 'extra' facilities offered by either.
I get the feeling that the D200 will turn out to be a 'smaller' version of the D2X, but almost as capable. Am I correct??
Thanks for your help.

PS.... I'll be buying one soon (second hand), so if anybody cares to tempt me, PM please.
