the d200 performed marvelously. it has a great build quality (much like the

It's pretty noisy, if you ask me.  My R8 and SL are almost noisless by 
comparison.  I still agree that it is very well built, and performs quite 
well.  
Used it for a Flyball tournament last weekend.  Only problem is the 18-200 
kit 
zoom was a bit too slow for the lighting, even with the D200 set at iso 
1600.  
Not quite ready for 3200 iso yet, as noise is pretty high, even for me..  I 
am 
going to try the DMR trick for higher iso work to see if it works for the 
D200 
also.
