can i also use it for canon rebel t2???

If you want to use the great flexibility and TTL capabilities of the SB800 you will need to use a newer Nikon digital camera.

I see your point. You had a good Nikon dealer! Dust? You can clean it yourself. Digital cam. juvenile illness. As for D200 - no, D80 is the same quality as D200 or Sony A100. Period.

It is obvious that you have not tried the three cameras that you are discussing. There are significant user interface differences as well as speed of the autofocus systems in those three cameras. The autofocus speed as well as the ability to use the metering system with older manual lenses makes the D200 well worth the extra money.

What I need is for Nikon to deliver on the stuff they make. In particular, the 18-200mm VR is available only for a 20% premium and more, the ML 3 is similar with a higher premium. The places where these items are available are not places I usually want to deal with."</i>

I guess that you don't like to shop at Best Buy. Best Buy in the Minneapolis area has this lens in stock for $799.
