I reckon Alex Bernasconi’s gallery of grizzlies to be the best available for viewing on the internet. I’m sure using two Nikon D200 bodies and a couple of Nikkor lenses and other equipment helped a lot with the image capture, but these photos show the undeniable fact that it was his photographic skill and intimate knowledge of these creatures’ habits that were the most important ingredients in successfully shooting these gorgeous images.

Here’s a quick note on what NOT to expect with the D200.
Lower end Nikon digital SLR cameras such as the Nikon D70 / D70s allows you to assign a name to, or rename an image folder. In higher end Nikon cameras such as the D2Xs or in this case, the D200, this feature is not available. All that’s allowed is the ability to create new folders numbered 100 to 199 999 (thanks to TXCiclista for pointing out my error), and that’s it.
Just a little heads up for those upgrading from other cameras.

You probably aren’t going to find many image samples on the internet which are shot with the Nikkor 200mm f/2G IF-ED AF-S VR lens mounted on the Nikon D200, what with the astronomical price tag this lens commands (check latest deals and prices), so we’ll have to content ourselves with the few we stumble across.

One of the more popular questions floating around is whether to buy the Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 lens or the Nikkor 18-200mm lens; it actually turns out that the choice is not always that obvious.
