[QUOTE="moss918, post: 377931, member: 23473"] I have the D80 and can confirm it is a great camera. Definitely check out DPReview, as someone suggested above. I'd have to say the D80 is a big step up from the 400D and the features aswell as the ergonomics really swayed my decision. Saying that the 400D is the "Ultimate Amateur Camera" and I don't mean that in a bad way - What you get for the price is probably the best value for money you'll find with DSLR's and I'm certain you won't be disappointed with it. The D80 on the other hand is regarded more as a semi-pro camera so obviously the price is a step above - but I must say it is worth every penny. As you haven't as yet decided to go with Nikon or Canon and so don't have money already invested in either find a spare hour and go check them both out - Thats the only way you'll know which is best for you. With a good lens on both bodies you'll be hard pressed to find differences in photo quality so pay more attention to how you're going to use them and how easy it is to use the functions on each.
