RESPONSE
Fast SLR response that's always ready to
capture the moment
Instant power-up in just 0.15 seconds,
a shutter release time lag of a mere 50
milliseconds, and a shortened viewfinder
blackout time of just 105 milliseconds
combine with optimized subsystems
throughout the D200 to provide fast
handling — making it ready to respond to a
photographer's instincts. These capabilities
better enable the capture of unexpected
picture opportunities, and support more
confident subject tracking during continuous
shooting, all of which combine to offer more
assured photographic control.
New, highly reliable and highly flexible
11-area AF
The D200 is equipped with a newly developed
advanced Multi-CAM 1000 AF Sensor
Module offering 11-area AF that ensures

varying shooting conditions, all while adding

acquisition and tracking abilities.
• Single Area AF is great for picking a single

within the viewfinder and on the Top Control
Panel if desired.

• Closest Subject Priority Dynamic AF
can be ideal for portraiture in characteristic
settings that include action or complex
elements. It automatically identifies the
subject closest to the camera using the
11 sensors, and enables composition that
captures the entire scene while keeping the
focus emphasis on the closest subject.
7 wide-area AF
• Group Dynamic AF recognizes patterns
of action in the scene and allocates a group
of AF sensors accordingly. Both Dynamic
AF and Closest Subject options are also
available, enabling the capture of specific
moving subjects in a frame that may also
contain peripheral activity. Such broad
ranging focus capability is well suited to
composition situations, such as sports, where
the action can be expected to take place in a
particular part of the frame but at a speed too
fast for focus on a single spot.

Shutter speed range to cover
every shoot
Shutter speeds from 30 to 1/8,000 second
can be selected manually or used in
conjunction with automated program modes
to provide a range that will match challenging
conditions. Additionally, flash-synchronized
shutter speeds of up to 1/250 second, and
up to 1/8,000 second with Auto FP High
Speed Sync, greatly enhance creative
exposure flexibility and fill-flash effects.
High-speed data processing
and handling
4-channel data output from the D200's new
DX Format CCD image sensor works with
fast image processing to deliver high-speed
continuous shooting. These elements also
work in conjunction with the high-speed
memory buffer and optimized system buses
to achieve faster read and write access
to CompactFlash™ (CF) cards, while
camera-to-computer data transfer takes
place via the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface.
