No doubt on it, the new D200 beats the old Canon 20D.

[Vladimer]

it is funny thought now 20D looks like D200 comparing to 5D

High ISO in daylight? What is the point? It appears this photographer lacked the skills to talk his model into going into a low-light situation.

And I just can't trust anything like this where all the Nikon shots are with just one lens and all the Canon one as well. You need a variety of pro glass to show that lens build is not affecting the results.

Whether the D200 is really this much better than the Canon I don't know, but I think there is proof here that the D200 can perform excellently in daylight.

Right now it is banding and mid-ISO noise that I'm most interested in.

Having currently owning a 20D, I usually have my sharpening at +1 because it is naturally soft. But I do have to say I like it that the D200 has more color saturation and the detail still remains very sharp.

From what I have seen the noise at high iso is quite acceptable.

Can't wait to get mine in the mail.

What were the variables here?I don't read chinese.I thought this comparison was easier to understand

In this tests (one has no idea how they are done) D200 is bit sharper, have a bit better contrast and have a little more noise in the high-ISO shots - nothing surprising. Whats most striking to me is how close they are in the colors and overall appearence. So much for talk about "Canon-colors" and "Nikon-colors" - at least out of the cameras the differences are tiny. I am sure the photos from both cameras here could be improved quite a lot with PP.

It is unlikely that both camers produced roughly identical colors like this without some adjusting of the raw files.

It doesn't look like a test for best color balance, so they may have made the colors as identical as possible to better isolate saturation, contrast and sharpness. I can't read the page, so these are assumptions. But they are just as likely- if not more likely- than your conclusion about color symmetry.

I came to the same conclusion

IMHO, the 20D images look a bit overexposed. Does Canon overexpose?

 

[drejc]

here D200 looks really better. I did a quick play in PS and even then D200 looks better.

But this is just low iso samples. At high iso Canon 20D is still better!
