For the second year in a row, the editors of American Photo selected the Nikon D100 as one of their top choices for digital SLR camera.  The 5th annual Editor's Choice Awards reveal a vast selection of the top imaging products currently on the market.  As previously mention in the 2002 awards, the Nikon D100 was noted for its versatility as well as its compact and lightweight design.  In 2003 the editors reiterated that the camera is a pleasure to work with, offering wonderful handling and top-notch image quality.

This camera gives James a very large shooting capacity in JPG format, and quite an impressive capability in RAW format. These cameras and lenses create superb photos when printed up to 16" x 20" and are great for magazine and newspaper photos. This gives James an awesome setup!

The D100 has a magnification of 1.5x compared to 35mm. It has a 6.1 effective megapixel for 3,008 x 2,000 pixel images.  The 3D digital matrix image control offers precise exposure control, TTL auto white balance and optimal color accuracy.  With a top shutter speed of 1/4,000 sec. and flash sync speeds of up to 1/180 sec. the D100 makes the perfect  camera for sports photography.
