Nikon on Wednesday introduced its latest digital SLR camera, boasting a resolution of 10.2 megapixels thanks to a new DX Format CCD image sensor. The Nikon D80 is aimed at the "prosumer" and takes a number of features from the company's professional digital SLRs.
The D80 can shoot up to 3 frames per second, and 100 consecutive images stored in JPEG format. The new camera boots up in 0.18 seconds and has a shutter time of 80 milliseconds. Nikon has added an 11-area auto-focus, along with an image retouch menu. A new 7.5x 18-135mm lens will be optionally available with the Nikon D80, which retails for $1299.95 USD or $999.95 USD without the lens.
