  • Nikon D80 in 2021 review of GadgetRevNow. Can you still use Nikon D80 in 2021? Real talk.
    Do you consider buying this over Nikon Z6 or Nikon D7600 in 2021? Or even rivals like Sony A7iii, A7Riii, A5100, A5000, A6000, A6100, A6300, A6400 or A6500? Or the newer Canon R and Fuji XT-2?

    I own three Nikon D80 bodies and three Nikkor AF zoom lenses (wide-angle, normal, and telephoto) -- all bought in the last month for a total of about $1,000. This is an incredible value! I love the images I am getting from the CCD. My answer to your question: Absolutely yes, the D80 is a great camera to own in 2022.

    Thanks for the information. I had just pulled mine out and started using it again. It has 64 menus and some have more than 1 setting. It was called the light D-200 by some. I use a 18-135mm Nikon VR lens. It covers most everything.

  • @johnnerdelbaumfrink2657

    For APS-C cameras, I would suggest buying 35mm 1.8G instead of 50mm 1.8G/D. Other option may be the Nikkor 24mm 2.8D, but stay away of it if you have a low end DSLR (D40, D60, D3XXX or D5XXX) because you'll loose AF.

    • @srr1887
      @srr1887 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      But its great to use 50mm if u mostly do portrait. So u dont really need a 85mm / 135mm to do a upper-torso tight shot. Well yeah, if u do basically random thing like sometimes street, sometimes cityscape, sometimes portrait then 35mm is best way to go

    I just came across your site. I found a minty D80 on Kijiji for CDN$100 with 50F1.8 lens (lens is $150 value alone), with 2 battewries and a 32GIG mcroSD card. I'm a pro by profession but from now, this camera is coming with me on all my shoots, just to grab fun shots.

    Bear in mind that if you use a 50 lens you're in effect getting a 75 lens so that it's basically a long lens which is very limiting. A 35 lens would obviously give you an effective 50 lens. I've been using my D80 again after a long time and liking what I'm getting.

    This was a great camera in its day. I had one for a few years until I replaced it with a D7000 (and now a D7500). At a pinch it was fine up to ISO1600 providing you did some post-processing or shot JPEG. I used it with the 18 to 70mm lens mine came with plus a Nikon 35mm, a 50mm D, an 85mm D and a Sigma 10-20mm.

    I am shooting this Badboy since 2006, bought it for like 900 EUR then. Nowadays, about 90-95% of the D80 suffer from a broken aperture gear mechanism, so buyers beware. The repair cost is far off, way much more, then this DSLR is being worth into 2022 and beyond. The D80 had this kind of serial failure, sad but real.

      Its a preference. Generally good, since photographers will edit photos and bumps up the colors, punchier means more saturated colors.

    Hey, thank you for this video.
    I am not a photographer but got this camera last year and had a lot of joy with it.
    Since I am streaming now, I would like to know if I am able to do this with the Nikon D80. For this plan I got an Capture Card for my PC and a AV Chinch to HDMI Adapter. I was able to see pictures and the menu on my PC screen, but I would like to have a live feed of the camera. -> Is this possible?
    The camera doesnt have to record anything and I am not Intending to controll it by the PC. I just want to get what the lense just sees on my PC screen via the AV plug.
    I read that something like this should be possible via the USB port, but for this is the Nikon remote Program needed, which has to be purchased. And I have my doubts about the quality.
