My first impression:
I generally test a camera out on my cat: willing subject who doesn't mind a camera stuck in her face. But most importantly she is jet black with white paws and a white belly and she sleeps on a white towel.
Wow! The D200 handles the white and black areas better than any camera I've had. I can see more detail in her paws and her black coat than I have seen in a digital camera. On top of that, some of the pink in her skin shows through the fur on her paws. And this with just the pop up flash. I'll try the SB800 later.
Ike, get crackin' on that housing, LOL!

Can't wait. I think I was 4 or 5th on the list with Underwater Photo-Tech. Hopefully they'll be shipping soon.
You didn't make our first allocation, however if you have a Nikon NPS Number I can switch you into the professional allocation and get it from Nikon quicker. Send me a PM with your NPS Number if you have one. If you don't have an NPS Number you can get one here:

Nikon is required by law to send at least ONE camera to every dealer in the USA. Most get very very few cameras in the first shipment.
Cheers

Yes, I got an email from the store explainging that's exactly what happened.
I'm just being impatient and need to suck it up and wait my turn.
btw. Great customer service from Underwater Photo-Tech!
From what is being written about the added bulk of the D200 body I can't imagine how it would work in a D100 housing. The tolerances on my Light and Motion D100 housing seem very tight.

D-200 camera installation is easy, but finding room to install the iTTL conversion circuitry with its push buttons and LEDs is proving to be a problem..........
How about a non-TTL version first...
